Utilizing terminal values in teaching time value analysis

Journal of Accounting Education, 1983
Abstract Traditional time value models, Net Present Value (NPV) and Internal Rate of Return (IRR), are now widely accepted in industry. This paper isolates three examples of how these simplified models can lead to less than optimal decision strategies. The conceptual basis for the discounting and reinvestment functions in time value analysis is first

Spinoff/Terminations and the Value of Pension Insurance

The Journal of Finance, 1985
ABSTRACTThis paper derives the value of Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation (PBGC) pension insurance under two scenarios of interest. The first allows for voluntary plan termination, which appears to be legal under current statutes. In the second scenario, termination is prohibited unless the firm is bankrupt.

Treating terminals as function values of time

1984
Motivated by the idea of describing parquet deformations using grammars, we define in this paper a terminal weighted grammar where the terminal generated at any step of a derivation is defined as a function of time. It is seen that terminal weighted regular grammars generate exactly the class of recursively enumerable sets.

Towards an ‘inland terminal centred’ value proposition

Maritime Policy & Management, 2014
The two main value propositions in international container transport are ‘port-to-port’ services and ‘door-to-door’ services. In port-to-port services, buyers ‘just’ purchase maritime transport from a shipping line. Door-to-door services comprise the total transport chain and include land-based transport. Carriers as well as forwarders offer these door-

Instrumentality — terminality values in relation to age

Experimental Aging Research, 1978
Terminal and instrumental value preference was investigated by asking young adults and older adults to respond to a modified version of the Rokeach Value Survey. Terminal and instrumental values were almost identical among the age and sex groups. Thus, the present data provide no evidence to support the hypothesis that older adults have a higher ...

The Diagnostic Value of Endoscopic Terminal Ileum Biopsies. CME

The American Journal of Gastroenterology, 2007
Biopsy of the terminal ileum (TI) is commonly performed during colonoscopy. The primary utility of this is to diagnose or rule out Crohn's disease in patients with symptoms and/or radiographic findings suggesting this diagnosis. We see many such biopsies in our gastrointestinal pathology service and have been impressed by the subjectively low yield of ...

Differential inequalities for terminal value problems

Nonlinear Analysis: Theory, Methods & Applications, 1983
Various sufficient conditions on \(v\), \(w\) and \(f\) are given such that \(v(\infty)\leq w(\infty)\), \(w(t)-f(t,w)\leq v(t)-f(t,v)\) (\(t>0\)) together imply \(v\leq w\), improving results of \textit{A. R. Aftabizadeh} and \textit{K. Lakshmikantham} [Nonlin. Anal., Theory Methods Appl. 5, 1173--1180 (1981; Zbl 0472.34008)].

Terminal Value or Present Value in Capital Budgeting Programs

The Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis, 1971
In a recent paper by Lusztig and Schwab, a sensitivity analysis was performed on a linear programming capital budgeting problem where selection of projects is based on the criterion of present values. Their model is typical of current practice in the literature, and it is the point of this paper to indicate that a better model exists which allows more ...

Terminal Value, Accounting Numbers, and Inflation

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2008
In a 2008 article published in this journal, Michael Bradley and Gregg Jarrell argue that the well‐known Gordon‐Shapiro (henceforth “GS”) model for calculating terminal values does not properly account for the effects of inflation. Bradley and Jarrell suggest modifying the growth factor in the standard GS model by adding an additional term to the ...
