#1:
a. m=1 N = 10 i=6 PMT = 0 FV = 18000 PV = 10,051.11
b. m=1 N= 5 i = 12 PMT = 0 FV = 20000 PV = 14,753.10
c. m=1 N = 15 i=6 PMT = 0 FV = 26000 PV = 6,304.87
d. m=1 N = 40 i = 20 PMT = 0 FV = 10000 PV = 6.80
#2:
a. m=1 N = 10 i=7 PMT = 0 PV = 10000 FV = 19,671.51
b. m=1 N = 10 i = 12 PMT = 0 PV = 10000 FV = 31,058.48
c. m=1 N = 30 i = 10 PMT = 0 PV = 10000 FV = 174,494.02
d. m = 12 N = 360 i = 10 PMT = 0 PV = 10000 FV = 198,373.99
#3:
a. m=1 N=6 i = 12 PMT = 0 FV = 12000 PV = 6,079.57
b. m=1 N = 15 i=8 PMT = 0 FV = 15000 PV = 4,728.63
c. m=1 N = 10 i=8 PMT = 5000 FV = 0 PV = 33,550.41
d. m=1 N = 40 i=7 PMT = 40000 FV = 0 PV = 533,268.35
#4:
a. m=1 N = 10 i = 10 PMT = 10000 PV = 0 FV = 159,374.25
b. m=1 N = 40 i = 8 PMT = 10000 PV = 0 FV = 2,590,565.19
#8: Correct approach is to compare PV of the 20-year annuity and $180,000 offer. You choose the
one with a greater amount. If the PV is less than $180,000, then she would be better off by selling
it out for $180,000. If not, she’d better off by keeping it.
PV of her song-right is
m = 1 N = 20 i = 10 PMT = 20000 FV = 0 PV = 170,271.27,
which is less than $180,000. Thus, you’d better sell it at $180,000
#9: PV of the 10-year annuity is
m = 1 N = 10 i = 10 PMT = 30000 FV = 0 PV = 184,337.01,
which is greater than $160,000. Thus, keep it!
#11: You use the effect rate of the quarterly compounding APR of 20% for annual interest rate.
m = 1 N = 10 i = 21.55 PMT = 2000 PV = 0 FV = 56,052.22
APR of 11%
PV of 1st offer: $5,000 itself
PV of 2nd offer: m = 1 N = 8 i = 11 PMT = 1000 FV = 0 PV = $5,146.12
PV of 3rd offer: m = 1 N = 8 i = 11 PMT = 0 FV = 12000 PV = $5,207.12
Thus, choose the 3rd offer!
APR of 12%
PV of 1st offer: $5,000 itself
PV of 2nd offer: m = 1 N = 8 i = 12 PMT = 1000 FV = 0 PV = $4,967.64
PV of 3rd offer: m = 1 N = 8 i = 12 PMT = 0 FV = 12000 PV = $4,846.60
Thus, choose the 1st offer!
The following questions are the possible questions that you may see in your exam:
c. What is the total interest paid after the first 15 years payments? $281,319.95
d. What is the total amortization after the first 15 years payments? $77,943.40
e. What is the balance after the first 15 years payments? $222,056.60
#25:
Previous 5 years investment Next 5 years for investment 4 year College
| | | |
t = -5 t=0 t=5 t=9
(College Entrance Date)
Find the value of 4-year college expense, discounting up to t=5 time point. This is the PVA
of $18,000 annuity for 4 years @ 10%: $57,057.58
Find the value of $3,000 investment per year for 10 years (previous 5 and the next 5 years)
in terms of the value at t=5 time point where she will enroll. This is FV of $3,000 annuity
for 10 years @10% annual compounding: $47,812.27
Find a shortage in funds between the two amounts: $57,057.58 - $47,812.27 = $9,245.31
Find annual payment for the next 5 years to make the FV of $9,245.31.
