Assignment 2
1)You sold a car and accepted a note with the following cash flow stream as
your payment: $1,000 after 1 year, 2,000 after 2 years, 2,500 after 3 years and
3,000 after 4 years. What was the effective price you received for the car
assuming an interest rate of 6.0%?
Answer: PV = FV / (1+i)n
=1000/(1+0.06) +2000/(1+0,06)n +2500/(1+0.06)3 +3000/(1+0.06)4 = $7198.4
2)You want to quit your job and go back to school for a law degree 4 years from
now, and you plan to save $3,500 per year, beginning immediately. You will
make 4 deposits in an account that pays 5.7% interest. Under these
assumptions, how much will you have 4 years from today?
Answer: FV=PMT[(1+i)n/i)-1/i]
= 3500[(1+0.057)4/0.057-1/0.057]
=16111
If a bank compounds savings accounts quarterly, the nominal rate will exceed
the effective annual rate.(T/F)
False,The effective rate will always be higher than the nominal rate if you
compound more than once a year.
When a loan is amortized, a relatively high percentage of the payment goes to

reduce the outstanding principal in the early years, and the interest paid on the
loan decreases. (T/F)
False , the highest percentage goes to reduce the interest paid on the loan
Firms A and B have the same current ratio, 0.75, the same amount of sales, and
the same amount of current liabilities. However, Firm A has a higher inventory
turnover ratio than B. Therefore, we can conclude that A's quick ratio must be
smaller than B's quick ratio. (True or false).
False , the lower inventories the firm has the higher its quick ratio will be.
7) On January 1, you deposit $100 in an account that pays a nominal (or

quoted) interest rate of 11.33463%, with interest added (compounded) daily.
How much will you have in your account on October 1, or 9 months later?
(273 days)
Answer: FV= PV (1+i/365) 273
= 100(1+11.33463%/365) 273
=100(1.00031054)273 = 108.845
8) Your grandmother just died and left you $100,000 in a trust fund that
pays 6.5% interest. You must spend the money on your college education,
and you must withdraw the money in 4 equal installments, beginning
immediately. How much could you withdraw today and at the end of each of
the next 3 years and end up with zero in the account? ANNUITY DUE :
Answer: PMT = PV [i/1-(1+i) -n ](1/1+i)
=100000[.065/1-(1+.065) -4](1/1+.065)
=2740.87

12) Given the following information concerning the expected returns and

for each stock and determine which stock is best for investment.
Probabilities ECB WCB

0.1 -10% 15%
0.2 35% -5%
0.1 -5% -10%
0.2 15% 35%
Expected Return ECB
= 0.4 * 40% + 0.1 * (-10%) + 0.2 * 35% + 0.1 * (-5%) + 0.2 * 15%
= 0.16 – 0.01 + 0.07 – 0.005 + 0.03
= 0.245 = 24.5%
