You want to have $32,000 for a down payment on a house 5 years from now. If you can earn 4.3 percent, compounded annually on your savings, how much do you need to deposit today to reach your goal?

$32000 = PV * (1 + 4.3%)5 $32000 = PV * (1 + 0.043)5 $32000 = PV * (1.043)5 $32000 = PV * 1.23430231101 PV = $32000 / 1.23430231101 PV = $25925.58

Assume the total cost of a college education will be $325,000 when your child enters college in 16 years. You presently have $40,000 to invest and do not plan to invest anything further. What annual rate of interest must you earn on your investment to cover the entire cost of your child's college education?

325,000=40000(FVIFi,16) FVIFi,16= 325,000/40000 FVIFi,16=8.125 when we look in the table of FVIF in the year 16 we find 8.137 the very nearby amount to our 8.125 in the 14% rate interest column. so because 8.137 is little bit higher than our answerd amount 8.125 so the rate interest is little bit lower than the 14% i.e 13.99 is the right answer that is given in our problem. so the applicable rate of interest that will be charged on $ 40000 to get $ 325,000 is 13.99%

Your coin collection contains ten 1949 silver dollars. If your grandparents purchased the coins for their face value when they were new, how much will your collection be worth when you retire in 2065, assuming the coins appreciate at an annual rate of 5.1 percent?

Collection of 10 1949 silver dollars was worth $10 in 1949. If annual rate is 5.1% its value 116 years later in 2065 using the formula P(1 + i) ^ n would be $10 x (1 + 0.051) ^ 116 = $3,205.64 Thus value of the collection in 2065 would be $3,205.64

Today, Georgia is investing $24,000 at 5.5 percent, compounded annually, for 6 years. How much additional income could she earn if she had invested this amount at 6.5 percent, compounded annually?

FV = $24000 * (1 + 5.5%)6 FV = $24000 * (1 + 0.055)6 FV = $24000 * (1.055)6 FV = $24000 * 1.37884280676 FV = $33092.2273 Now, we will calculate the income earned: Income = Future value - Present value Income = $33092.2273 - $24000 Income = $9092.2273 Calculation of income at 6.5%: Now we will calculate the future value of investing $24000 at 6.5% by using the following formula: FV = PV * (1 + r%)n where, FV = Future value, PV = Present value = $24000, r = rate of interest = 6.5%, n= time period = 6 now, putting theses values in the above equation, we get, FV = $24000 * (1 + 6.5%)6 FV = $24000 * (1 + 0.065)6 FV = $24000 * (1.065)6 FV = $24000 * 1.45914229654 FV = $35019.41511 Now, we will calculate the income earned: Income = Future value - Present value Income = $35019.41511 - $24000 Income = $11019.41511 Additional income by investing $24000 at 6.5% is: Additional income = Income at 6.5% - Income at 5.5% Additional income = $11019.42 - $9092.23 Additional income = $1927.19

You have been told that you need $15,000 today for every $50,000 you want when you retire 30 years from now. What rate of interest was used in the present value computation? Assume interest is compounded annually.

FV = PV * (1 + r)n $50,000 = $15,000 * (1 + r)30 3.3333 = (1 + r)30 1.0409 = 1 + r r = 0.0409

Roberto just deposited $11,500 into his savings account at Security Savings Bank. The bank will pay .55 percent interest, compounded annually, on this account. How much interest on interest will he earn over the next 6 years?

FV = PV * (1 + r)n FV = $11,500 * (1 + 0.55%)6 FV = $11,500 * 1.033457 FV = $11,884.76 Total interest earned = $11,884.76 - $11,500 = $384.76 Now, we need to compute how much would the interest on interest be. Interest on Interest = Total Interest (computed above) - Simple Interest Simple Interest = Principal * rate * Time = $11,500 * 0.55% * 6 = $379.50 Interest on Interest = $384.76 - $379.50 = $5.26

What is the future value of $8,000 invested today and held for 15 years at 8.5 percent compounded annually?

FV= 8,000*(1+0.085)^15 = 8,000*3.3997 = 27,197.94.

Theodoro has just received an insurance settlement of $18,500. She wants to save this money until her daughter goes to college. If she can earn an average of 5.2 percent, compounded annually, how much will she have saved when her daughter enters college 9 years from now?

Future value = Present value x (1 + interest rate)time period = $ 18,500 x 1.0529 = $ 18,500 x 1.57812594 = $ 29,195.33

You are due to receive a lump-sum payment of $1,650 in five years. Assuming a discount rate of 3.5 percent interest, what would be the value of the payment in Year 3?

Future value = present value*(1+ rate)^time 1650 = Present value(1+0.035)^2 Present value = 1540.29

Travis invests $5,500 today into a retirement account. He expects to earn 9.2 percent, compounded annually, on his money for the next 13 years. After that, he wants to be more conservative, so only expects to earn 6 percent, compounded annually. How much money will he have in his account when he retires 25 years from now, assuming this is the only deposit he makes into the account?
