Consider an investment scenario that returns a level stream of four annual payments of $10,000 each (i.e., an annuity). The first payment occurs at the end of the first year, and the subsequent payments occur at the end of each of the next three years. The discount rate is assumed to be 6% annually.
(a) Calculate the present value of the investment as of the beginning of the first period. Use the approach illustrated in the text to demonstrate the intrinsic calculations, and then verify your answer by reference to the appropriate present value table. If you have a “business” calculator, additionally verify your calculations using the present value functions included with your calculator.
(b) Show how your answer to part (a) would differ if you change the assumption to “beginning of year” payments.
(c) Using the present value tables, calculate how your answer to part (a) would differ if you change the assumption to eight semiannual (end of period) $5,000 payments, with the 6% annual rate being revised to 3% for each semiannual period.

After receiving a positive response from StopNShopToday, Inc. management about the recommendations for the incentives and performance appraisal projects, the HR generalist has been assigned a project that will prove to be very challenging: assessing the competitiveness of the company benefits package.
The owners of StopNShopToday, Inc. are very concerned about the escalation of health insurance costs. When they started the business in 1991, benefit costs were much less and employees were happier with what the company provided. Now, however, the owners regularly hear employee complaints about the growing health insurance premiums they pay.
In addition, the owners are tired of employees always requesting that they be allowed to take a greater number of paid personal absence days. Scheduling employee vacations and holidays is difficult because the company’s store locations are open all day and every day, except for Christmas and New Year’s day. As a result, the owners want to compare StopNShopToday, Inc.’s benefits package with other similar companies. They intend to use these facts to make better decisions and communicate their problems more accurately to employees.
As the HR generalist, you quickly realize that the corporation had never quantified the total costs of benefits. After 1 month of exhaustive review of benefits bills and payroll records, you have summarized the corporate compensation and benefits costs as seen in the following:
Percent of Total Compensation:
Total wages and salaries: 50%
Total benefits costs: 25%
Paid leave: 5%
Supplemental leave: 2%
Insurance: 6%
Retirement and savings: 2%
Legally required benefits: 10%
Other benefits: 0%
With this information, you will now attempt an external benefits comparison. To get benefits data from other companies, review the following data from the U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics. Some of the most pertinent survey results are in Appendix A.
Click here to view the U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics 2005 data.
Click here to view the U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics 1986–2001 data.
Prepare a comparison of the compensation and benefits costs that you will deliver to the company’s owners. Create at least 1 chart to visually depict the most relevant data. Address the issues of greatest concern to the owners. Provide several paragraphs to summarize your findings. Use Appendix A or additional data provided in the U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics documents.
5-8 paragraphs and 1 chart
