PREFACE

When will you be able to buy a home? Can you afford a new car or a vacation? How can
you pay off your credit card balance? What should you invest in?
The answers to these questions are tied directly to how you, as a student, manage
your finances. Managing your finances wisely will bring a sense of security and freedom
that you can enjoy for years to come. Very few courses you will take throughout your
post-secondary career will have the potential to profoundly shape your future like a
personal finance course. Taking this course is your first step on the path toward a stable
financial future.
With Personal Finance, Fourth Canadian Edition, as your guide, you will master key
concepts that will aid you in managing and increasing your personal wealth. The aim
of this textbook is to equip you with knowledge and decision-making tools to help you
make sound financial decisions.

New to the Fourth Canadian Edition

Revised Chapter Introduction Cases


Each chapter opens with a chapter introduction, with student-centric scenarios that
include at least two discussion questions designed to introduce important concepts and
themes covered in the chapter.

Free Apps for Personal Finance


Throughout each chapter, students are advised of a variety of useful applications that
they can download to their smartphones, for free, that apply to many of the key concepts
covered in the chapter.

Psychology of Personal Finance


Personal finance behaviour is influenced by psychology. For example, some spending
decisions are made on impulse due to the desire for immediate satisfaction. A feature
called Psychology of Personal Finance explains how financial planning decisions are
affected by psychology. At the end of every chapter, there is also an accompanying sec-
tion that tests students’ understanding of how psychological forces influence personal
finance decisions.

End-of-Chapter Challenge Questions


Multi-step financial planning problems called Challenge Questions require deeper
­analysis, inviting students to apply knowledge and demonstrate chapter material
­comprehension.

Preface xv

End-of-Chapter Mini-Cases
At the end of each chapter, new mini-cases provide students with an opportunity to syn-
thesize and to apply a number of concepts from each chapter in a practical manner. There
are one to two mini-cases per chapter.

More Visual Exhibits


More exhibits appear throughout the entire book to enhance concept retention and to
provide a visual representation of facts and figures.

Improved Ethical Dilemmas


End-of-chapter ethical scenarios focus on topics of student interest to engage the reader.
Designed to help students apply ethical principles to financial situations and problems,
these real-life ethical situations are presented along with critical thinking questions.

Key Chapter Updates


Chapter 1: In addition to being SMART (specific, measurable, action-­oriented,
realistic, and time bound), goals must be prioritized. The idea of
prioritizing your goals is introduced through a new mini case and
the use of an online tool that helps students understand that goals
need to be considered in terms of their priority relative to your
personal situation.
Chapter 2: The discussion of the simple interest formula, I = P * r * t, has
been expanded to include variations of this formula that allow stu-
dents to solve for P, r, and t. In addition, a new learning outcome
provides a brief discussion and example calculations for solving
for the number of compounding periods (N) and the nominal
annual interest rate (I/Y). At the end of the chapter, a revised and
expanded list of financial planning problems provides students
with an opportunity to use their financial calculator to solve for
all time value of money variables.
Chapter 3: A summary of the budgeting steps covered in Learning Outcome 3,
Creating a Budget, is provided at the end of the section. This sum-
mary will help reinforce the actions that are required in this critical
component of personal financial planning.
Chapter 5: The topic of Interac e-transfers is introduced for the first time in
this edition as a new banking service available to Canadians.
Chapter 6: A new table summarizing the advantages and disadvantages of
using credit is introduced in this edition. The home equity loan
has been reintroduced as the home equity line of credit, HELOC,
in order to better reflect how these types of secured credit facili-
ties are set up in Canada. The section on negotiating the price of a
car has been expanded so as to provide further guidance to those
students who are in the market for a car—now or in the future.
Chapter 7: The section on mortgage refinancing is now complemented by
a new example calculation for a blend-and-extend mortgage
refinancing.
Chapter 8: The concept of maintaining a minimum amount of coverage on a
homeowner’s insurance policy that provides replacement cost cov-
erage is clarified with the use of a detailed example.

xvi Preface

Chapter 11: The topic of electronic trading systems is expanded with a discus-
sion of the bid price, ask price, and the bid–ask spread, includ-
ing definitions and examples. Learning Outcome 4 has been better
organized, updated, and renamed How to Analyze Stocks. Learn-
ing Outcome 5 on Stock Valuation has been updated to include a
discussion on the two main methods to value a stock—the intrinsic
valuation mode and the relative valuation model.

HALLMARKS OF PERSONAL FINANCE,


FOURTH CANADIAN EDITION
We recognize that students who decide to take a course in personal finance have a variety
of academic backgrounds, interests, and personal goals. For some, such a course might
be a prerequisite to a future in finance or business. Others may decide to take the course
because they want to learn more about how to create a budget or to plan for a large pur-
chase such as a car on their current income. Our aim with this text is to provide students
with all the tools they need to fully understand and plan their personal finances in a way
that is useful, engaging, and rewarding.

Textbook Content and Organization


We have organized this text into a logical chapter order. The first chapter establishes the
text’s organization by introducing students to the key components of a financial plan.
The text is then organized into six parts, beginning with Chapter 2, which are keyed to
the components of a comprehensive financial plan.
Part 1: Tools for Financial Planning
Part 2: Managing Your Financial Resources
Part 3: Protecting Your Wealth
Part 4: Personal Investing
Part 5: Retirement and Estate Planning
Part 6: Synthesis of Financial Planning

Preface xix

Key Topics in the Fourth Canadian Edition


of Personal Finance
We have included several important topics for Canadian students in this edition. You
will find some examples of these key discussions in the following chapters:
Chapter 2: In Chapter 2, we discuss the importance of the time value of money
(TVM) concept and provide a step-by-step introduction to the cal-
culator steps, using the TI BA II Plus calculator, used to perform
TVM calculations.
Chapter 4: In Chapter 4, we provide background on taxes and tax planning
strategies, and then provide an appendix that guides students step
by step through the process of completing a tax return.
Chapter 6: In Chapter 6, we discuss identity theft, different identity theft tac-
tics, and ways to protect against this kind of theft.
Chapter 9: In Chapter 9, we discuss the various levels of health and life insur-
ance coverage available to Canadians, including disability, critical
illness, and long-term care.
Chapter 10: In Chapter 10, we examine different types of investments and the
trade-offs that need to be considered when examining investment
return and risk.
Chapter 11: In Chapter 11, we show students how to complete an analysis of
a firm, an economic analysis of stocks, and an industry analysis of
stocks in order to determine an investment strategy.
Chapter 14: In Chapter 14, we present a comprehensive review of public and
private retirement options, including the process of converting
retirement assets to income.

Decision-Making Emphasis
All of the information presented in this book is geared toward equipping students with
the expertise they need to make informed financial decisions. Each chapter establishes a
foundation for the decisions that form the basis of a financial plan. When students com-
plete each chapter, they are, therefore, prepared to complete the related financial plan
subsection provided on MyLab Finance. Key to understanding personal finance is know-
ing how to apply concepts to real-life planning scenarios. The many examples, financial
planning problems, exercises, and cases place students in the role of the decision-maker
and planner.

Focus on Opportunity Costs


Personal Finance calls attention to the trade-offs involved in financial decisions. The
decision to buy a new car affects the amount of funds available for recreation, rent, insur-
ance, and investments. The text uses numerous examples and exercises to illustrate and
teach students about the interdependence of personal finance decisions.
The quantitative side of financial planning intimidates many students. Personal
Finance simplifies the mathematics of personal finance by explaining its underlying logic.
Formulas and calculations are explained in the text and then illustrated in examples.
Examples that can be solved using a financial calculator are depicted with a keypad illus-
tration. Students are referred to websites with online calculators whenever pertinent. The
Financial Planning Problems and Financial Planning Online Exercises provide students
with ample opportunity to practise applying math-based concepts.

CHAPTER
Overview of a
Financial Plan 1

A
fter a long semester that ended with their gradua-
tion from college, Mo (age 23) and Farah (age 23)
could not help but feel an overwhelming sense of Daxiao Productions/Shutterstock

satisfaction as they enjoyed the sand and surf on their post-graduation beach vacation. Now
that they were moving on with their respective careers, the soon-to-be-married couple faced a
new set of financial challenges.

As they imagined their financial futures, the young couple had to think about a number of
financial choices, some of which could only be accomplished at the expense of not reaching
other goals immediately. Should they buy a new car now? If they did buy a new car, how would
this decision impact their plans for their wedding and honeymoon? The couple also had to
consider whether they should move out of their apartment and buy a house. How would home
ownership impact their cash flow? Although it was a long way off, Mo and Farah were also won-
dering when they should start thinking about retirement. All of these decisions require detailed
planning, but the idea of establishing personal and financial goals for their futures seemed like
a difficult task. There was so much they wanted to do and they were not sure if they would ever
have the financial resources to do it all.

In a world where there are few guarantees, thorough financial planning, prudent financial man-
agement, and careful spending can help you achieve your financial goals.

The personal financial planning process enables you to understand a financial plan and to
develop a personal financial plan. The simple objective of financial planning is to make the
best use of your resources to achieve your financial goals. The sooner you develop your goals
and a financial plan to achieve those goals, the easier it will be to achieve them.

may not provide you with the financial future you imagine for yourself. With an under-
standing of personal finance, you will be able to make decisions that can enhance your
financial situation. How much do you know about personal finance? Various govern-
ment agencies of various countries have attempted to assess financial literacy in recent
years. Surveys have documented that people tend to have very limited personal finance
skills. In addition, surveys have found that many people who believe they have strong
personal finance skills do not really understand some basic personal finance concepts.

Fig. 31.—An isolated pork-measle bladder-
worm (Cysticercus cellulosæ), with extended
head, greatly enlarged. (Stiles, Report U.S.A.
Bureau of Agriculture, 1901.)

Causation. The cause of cysticercus disease in the pig may be


summed up in one phrase—viz., ingestion of eggs or embryos of
Tænia solium.
Young animals alone seem to contract the disease. After the age of
eight to ten months they appear almost entirely proof against it.
It is very rare in animals reared in confinement, but is relatively
common in those roaming at liberty; because they are much more
likely to discover human excrement and the embryos of tænia. The
eggs having been swallowed, the six-hooked embryos are set at
liberty in the intestine, perforate the tissues, enter the vessels, and
are carried by the blood into all parts of the body. Those alone
develop well which reach the interstitial and intermuscular
connective tissue. The others in the viscera usually disappear. Their
presence in the depths of the muscles produces slight general
disturbance and signs of local irritation, due to the development of
the cyst itself. At the end of a month the little vesicle is large enough
to be visible to the naked eye; in forty to forty-five days it is as large
as a mustard seed, and in two months as a grain of barley. Its
commonest seats are the abdominal muscles, muscular portions of
the diaphragm, the psoas, tongue, heart, the muscles of mastication,
intercostal and cervical muscles, the adductors of the hind legs, and
the pectorals.
Symptoms. The symptoms of invasion are so
little marked as usually to pass undetected.
Occasionally, when large quantities have been
ingested, signs of enteritis may occur, but these
are generally ascribed to some entirely different
cause. In some cases there is difficulty in moving,
and the grunt may be altered.
Certain authors declare that the thorax is
depressed between the front limbs, but this
symptom is of no particular value, and is also
common to osseous cachexia and rachitis.
Paralysis of the tongue and of the lower jaw is of
greater importance. In exceptional cases, where
the cysticerci are very numerous and penetrate
the brain, signs of encephalitis, vertigo, and
turning sickness (gid, sturdy) may be produced.
These signs, however, disappear, and the
cysticerci undergo atrophy. Interference with
movement may give rise to suspicion when the
toes of the fore and hind limbs are dragged along
the ground, and thus become worn. This
peculiarity is due to the presence of cysts in the Fig. 32.—Several

a grain of barley, or even larger. Unfortunately, in an animal so


difficult to handle as the pig, this visual examination is decidedly
troublesome, and is usually replaced by palpation. In many instances
the disease does not attract attention during the patient’s life, and is
only discovered on slaughter in consequence of the lesions by which
it is characterised.
Diagnosis. As the characteristic lesions of cysticercus disease are
to be found in the depths of the muscular and connective tissues, and
as the external symptoms may be regarded as of doubtful
significance, the diagnosis can only be confirmed during life by
manual examination of the tongue. This examination of the tongue
has been practised since the earliest times. Aristophanes even speaks
of it, and in the Middle Ages it was performed under sworn
guarantees. The regulations concerning the inspection of meat have
finally led to the suppression of this calling.
In this method of examining the tongue, the operator commences
by throwing the animal on its side, usually on the right side, and
holding it in this position by placing his left knee on its neck. He then

passes a thick stick between the jaws and behind the tusks, opens the
mouth obliquely, raising the upper jaw by manipulating the stick.
Finally he fixes one end of this last by placing his foot upon it, and
holds the other extremity by slipping it under his left arm. In this
position he is able to grasp the free end of the tongue and by digital
palpation to examine the tongue itself, the gums, the free portions of
the frænum linguæ, etc.
Fig. 35.—Gravid segment of pork-measle tapeworm (Tænia solium),
showing the lateral branches of the uterus enlarged. (Stiles, Report U.S.A.
Bureau of Agriculture, 1901.)

If he discovers cysts, the diagnosis is confirmed, but failure to do


so by no means disposes of the possibility of infection. Railliet
declares that about one animal in four or five shows no cysts beneath
the tongue, and, moreover, fraud is possible in this connection, it
being quite possible to prick the little cysts with a needle so that the
liquid contents escape, and examination gives no positive result. For
these reasons intra-vitam examination alone is now discounted, and
the chief reliance is placed on post-mortem search.
Prognosis. The prognosis is very grave, not on account of danger
to the lives of the infected, but because infected meat may be offered
for human consumption. Should such meat, in an insufficiently
cooked condition, be eaten by man, its ingestion is followed by the
development of Tænia solium. If cooking were always perfect it
would destroy the cysticerci, but the uncertainty in this respect
should prevent such meat being consumed. The cysticerci are killed
at a temperature of 125° to 130° Fahr.

Fig. 36.—Eggs of pork-measle tapeworm (Tænia solium): a, with


primitive vitelline membrane; b, without primitive vitelline
membrane, but with striated embryophore. × 450. (After Leuckart.)

Lesions. The lesions are represented by cysts alone—i.e., by semi-


transparent bladders, each of which contains a scolex or head armed
with four suckers and a double crown of hooks. The little bladders
are most commonly found in the muscles, lodged in the
interfascicular tissue, which they slightly irritate.
The number present varies extremely, depending on the intensity
of infestation and the number of eggs swallowed. Whilst in some
cases difficult to discover, in others they are so numerous that the
tissues appear strewn with them.
They are commonest in the muscles of the tongue, neck, and
shoulders, in the intercostal and psoas muscles, and in those of the
quarter.
The viscera—viz., the liver, kidneys, heart, lungs, etc.—are less
commonly infested, and in these organs the cysts degenerate very
rapidly. In animals which have been infested for a long time, the
cysts may even have undergone caseo-calcareous degeneration, the
liquid being absorbed and the lesions presenting the appearance of
little oblong firm nodules.
On cutting through masses of muscle the
vesicles protrude from between the bundles.
In young animals, infestation with
cysticerci causes wasting and ill-health;
subsequently the patients improve in
appearance, later on fatten, and gain
marketable condition.
Of the carcases examined in Prussian
slaughter-houses between 1876–82, one in
every 305 was found infested; between
1885–93, one in every 537.
Treatment. There is no curative
treatment. Only preventive measures are of
value. These are confined to rendering it
impossible for animals to ingest eggs of the
Tænia solium.
Cysticercus disease is rare in the north,
centre, and east of France, and in districts
where animals are reared in confinement. It
is commoner where pigs are at liberty, such
as Limousin, Auvergne, and Perigord. It is
frequent in North Germany, where the Fig. 37.—Half of hog,

BEEF MEASLES.

Causation. The disease of beef measles is due to the penetration


into the connective and muscular tissues of embryos of the Tænia
saginata, or unarmed tænia of man.
This disease, unlike that of the pig, has only been recognised
within comparatively recent times, and only after Weisse’s
experiments (St. Petersburg, 1841) on feeding with raw flesh was
attention drawn to it, although as early as 1782 the Tænia saginata
had been described by Goëze.
Measles in the ox is rarely seen in France, but is common in North
and East Africa. Alix has found it in Tunis, Dupuys and Monod in
Senegal, and it is common in the south of Algeria. The disease is due
simply to oxen swallowing eggs or embryos of the unarmed tænia, a
fact which explains the frequency of the disease in places where the
inhabitants are of nomad habits, and consequently disregard the
most elementary rules of public and general hygiene.

Cyst; B, scolex with hooks; C, hooks; D, magnified fragment of

Furthermore, cattle in the Sahara, in Senegal and in the Indies,


have a very marked habit of eating ordure, and as no attempts are
made to prevent it, the risk to these animals is greatly increased.
As in the pig, the embryos which reach the stomach and intestine
penetrate into the circulatory system, and are thereby distributed
throughout the entire organism.
The development
of the cysticercus is
complete in forty
days, and if
swallowed by man in
infected meat after
this period it again
gives rise to the
Tænia saginata.
The age of the
animals seems of
less importance than
in the case of the pig,
for Ostertag and
Morot have seen
cases of beef measles
in animals of ten
years old.
Symptoms. The
symptoms are still
less marked than in
Fig. 40.—Section of a beef tongue heavily the pig, and in

Stiles, however, gives
the following
account of a case experimentally infected:—

from man, showing the head on the anterior end and the gradual increase in size of
the segments, natural size. (Stiles, Annual Report U.S.A. Bureau of Agriculture,
1901.)

“Symptoms. Four days after feeding segments of T. saginata to a


healthy three-months-old calf, the patient showed a higher
temperature (the normal temperature was 39·2° C.). The calf ate but
little on that day, showed an accelerated pulse, swollen belly, staring
coat, and upon pressure on the sides showed signs of pain. The next
day the animal was more lively, ate a little, and for nine days later did
not show any special symptoms except pain on pressure of the
abdominal walls, and a slight fever. Nine days after the infection the
temperature was 40·7° C., pulse 86, respiration 22; the calf laid
down most of the time, lost its appetite almost entirely, and groaned
considerably. When driven it showed a stiff gait and evident pain in
the side. The fever increased gradually, and with it the feebleness
and low-spiritedness of the calf, which now retained a recumbent
position most of the time, being scarcely able to rise without aid, and
eating only mash with ground corn. Diarrhœa commenced, the
temperature fell gradually, and on the twenty-third day the animal
died. The temperature had fallen to 38·2° C. During the last few days
the calf was unable to rise; in fact, it could scarcely raise its head to
lick the mash placed before it. Pulse was reduced by ten beats. On the
last day the heart-beats were very much slower, yet firm, and could
be plainly felt. Several days before death the breathing was laboured,
and on the last day there was extreme dyspnœa.”
Diagnosis. In forming a diagnosis we meet with the same
difficulty as in the case of the pig. It is always easy to examine the
tongue; but when visible
lesions are absent diagnosis
in the case of the ox remains
doubtful and problematical
even more than in the pig.
In the carcase, diagnosis
is much easier. The cysts are
sought for, as in the pig, by
making sections of muscle,
those usually selected being
the pterygoid, cervical,
cardiac, and psoas muscles,
and those of the quarters.
Prognosis. The
prognosis is grave, not
indeed for the infected
animals, which seem little
injured by the parasite, but
for human beings, who run
the risk of contracting
Tænia inermis by eating

Agriculture, 1901.) the mass always remains

Salting for fifteen to
twenty days destroys the vitality of the parasite.
Lesions. The lesions are confined to the presence of the cyst and
of two little zones of chronic inflammation immediately surrounding
it. Unless heavily infested the subjects fatten just as well as others.
The vesicles are semi-transparent, ³⁄₁₆ inch to ¼ inch in length,
slightly ovoid in form, and contain a tænia head with four suckers,
but without hooks.
In seven to eight months the cysts undergo degeneration, the
liquid is absorbed, and calcium salts are deposited throughout the
mass. The lesions which remain have, in the ox, the appearance of
interstitial disseminated tuberculosis.
There is no curative treatment. The infested animal recovers
spontaneously with the lapse of time, for the cysticerci undergo
degenerative processes, but the flesh of such animals is of little
commercial value.
From a preventive standpoint we can only hope to improve
matters by a gradual and progressive change in social and public
hygienic conditions.

When the life of the nomad shall have been entirely replaced by
that of the highly-civilised European and private hygienic
precautions have rendered it impossible for animals to obtain access
to segments or eggs of the Tænia saginata, beef measles will
disappear.
At present, in the countries where the disease is common, one
experiences a feeling of astonishment that it is not far more frequent;
for experiment has shown that a person infected with one unarmed
tapeworm expels with the fæces an average of four hundred
proglottides per month, each proglottis or segment of the worm
containing about 30,000 eggs, each of which is capable of developing
into a tapeworm.
Beef measles is rather common in Germany, but rare in France,
Switzerland, and Italy.

TRICHINIASIS—TRICHINOSIS.

Trichinosis is a disease caused by the entrance into the body of the


Trichina spiralis. This parasite is swallowed in the larval form, and
undergoes sexual changes in the intestine, at first producing
intestinal trichinosis, which represents the first phase in the
development of the disease.
The trichinæ breed rapidly. The embryos penetrate into or are
directly deposited in the blood-vessels, which convey them to all
parts of the body, thus setting up the second phase of the disease,
known as muscular trichinosis.
Trichinosis as a disease has long been
recognised. Peacock in 1828 and J. Hilton
in 1832 mentioned the existence of the
cysts of trichinæ; Owen in 1835 gave the
name of Trichina spiralis to the parasites
contained in the cysts. Trichinosis being
common in Germany at that time, Virchow
and Leuckart undertook its investigation,
but mistook other nematodes of the
intestine for the Trichina spiralis. In 1847
Leydy recognised that trichinosis occurred
in American pigs.
In 1860 Zenker found muscular and
intestinal trichinosis on post-mortem
examination of a girl who had been
suspected of suffering from typhoid fever,
and a carefully conducted inquiry revealed
the fact that this girl had some time
previously eaten a quantity of raw ham.
Virchow and Leuckart returned to their

the muscles do not become infested by the embryos.


Cold-blooded animals are proof against the disease.
After the ingestion of meat containing cysts of the parasite, the
processes of gastric and intestinal digestion set the larvæ at liberty.
These larvæ become sexual at the end of four to five days, and the
females, which are usually twice as numerous as the males, begin
laying eggs from the sixth day, continuing for a month to six weeks.
Each female lays approximately from 10,000 to 15,000 eggs. The
embryos perforate the intestinal walls,
pass into the circulation, and are hurried
into all parts of the system. This period of
infestation constitutes the first phase of
the disease.
Askanazy, in 1896, suggested that it was
not the embryos which perforated the
intestinal walls and thus reached the
blood-vessels, but the fertilised female
trichinæ themselves, which entered the
terminal chyle vessels and laid their eggs
directly within them.
This observation is of great interest, for
it contradicts the view held by Leuckart
and proves that treatment is useless even
in the first phase.
The males are about ¹⁄₁₆ inch in length,
the females ⅛ inch to ⁵⁄₃₂ inch, and are
ovoviviparous.

known to be developing, and moreover Fig. 46.—Male trichina

experimental cases. As soon as the laying (Colin.)
period begins, signs of intestinal
disturbance may be observed, possibly due to embryos perforating
the intestinal walls (if we accept Leuckart’s view), or, according to
Askanazy, to adult females penetrating the chyle vessels and
disturbing intestinal absorption.
These symptoms are only appreciable in cases of “massive”
infestation. If slight, the disturbance passes unperceived. In severe
cases the symptoms consist of diarrhœa, loss of appetite, grinding of
the teeth, abdominal pain in the form of dull colic, and sometimes
irritation of the peritoneum. The embryos carried by the circulation
then escape into the tissues and, like the cysticerci, become encysted,
preferably in the muscles, in the interfascicular connective tissue
towards the ends of the bundles. Each (asexual) parasite plays the
part of a foreign body, causing infiltration of serum and exudation of
leucocytes in its neighbourhood, and soon becoming encysted in the
interior of a little ovoid space surrounded by a fibro-fatty wall. Fat
granules accumulate at each end of the cyst.
