On March 28,2008 , Toyota Motor Credit Corporation (TMCC), a subsidiary of Toyota Motor, offered some securities for sale to the public. Under the terms of the deal, TMCC promised to repay the owner of one of these securities $100,000 on March 28 , 2038, but investors would receive nothing until then. Investors paid TMCC $24,099 for each of these securities; so they gave up $24,099 on March 28,2008 , for the promise of a $100,000 payment 30 years later. 1a. Why would TMCC be willing to accept such a small amount today ($24,099) in exchange for a promise to repay about four times that amount ($100,000) in the future? 1b. Would you be willing to pay $24,099 today in exchange for $100,000 in 30 years? What would be the key considerations in answering yes or no? 1c. Suppose that when TMCC offered the security for $24,099, the U.S. Treasury had offered essentially identical security. Do you think it would have had a higher or lower price? Why
