Elliott Credit Corp. wants to earn an effective annual return (EAR or EAIR) on its consumer loans of 17.1 percent per year. The bank uses daily compounding on its loans. What interest rate is the bank required by law to report to potential borrowers? Hint: The bank is required to report the APR for these loans.

EAIR = (1+r)^nper - 11+EAIR = (1+r)^nper (1+EAIR)^(1/nper) = 1 + r r = (1+EAIR)^(1/nper) - 1r = (1+.17.1%)^(1/365) -1 0.000432581APR = r*nper = above *365 0.157892225

Find X for "The APR of this investment is X compounded semi-annually," if the associated EAIR (EAR) is 11.1 percent. Hint: Note that r in this case = APR/2. Plug APR/2 into the EAIR equation. Solve for APR, then X = APR.

EAR = .1110 = [1 + (APR/2)]2 − 1APR = 2[(1.1110)1/2 − 1] = .108

Calculate the effective rate(EAR) assuming an APR of 9 percent compounded quarterly.

EAR = [1 + (.09/4)]4 − 1 = .093

The appropriate APR for the following cash flows is 9 percent compounded quarterly. Year - Cash Flow 1 - $815 2 - 990 3 - 0 4 - 1,520

EAR = [1 + (APR/m)]m - 1 EAR = [1 + (.09/4)]4 - 1 EAR = .0931, or 9.31% And now we use the EAR to find the PV of each cash flow as a lump sum and add them together: PV = $815/1.0931 + $990/1.09312 + $1,520/1.09314 PV = $2,638.87

Assume the total cost of a college education will be $345,000 when your child enters college in 18 years. You presently have $73,000 to invest.What annual rate of interest must you earn on your investment to cover the cost of your child's college education?

FV = PV(1 + r)t r = (FV/PV)1/t - 1 r = ($345,000/$73,000)1/18 - 1 r = .090

At 6.1 percent compound interest, how long does it take to quadruple an investment?

FV = PV(1 + r)t t = ln(FV/PV)/ln(1 + r) The length of time to quadruple your money is FV = $4 = $1(1.061)t t = ln4/ln1.061 = 23.41 years

An investment will pay you $80,000 in 10 years. If the APR is 9 percent compounded daily, what is the present value?

For this problem, we need to find the PV of a lump sum using the equation: PV = FV/(1 + r)^T It is important to note that r = APR / (No. of periods per year), where r is the compound interest (discount) rate in native units (days). In native r units of days, T = 10 years * 365 days/year. PV = $80,000/[(1 + .09/365)^(10*365)] PV = $32,529.18

If you put up $41,000 today in exchange for a 5.1 percent, 15-year annuity, what will your annual annuity payments be?

Here we have the PVtot, length of the annuity, and the interest rate. We want to calculate the annuity payment. Using the PV Annuity equation:PVtot = C({1 − [(1 + r)^-t]}/r)PVtot = $41,000 = $C{[1 − (1.051^-15)]/.051} We can now solve this equation for the annuity payment. Doing so, we get: C = $41,000/10.30985 C = $3,976.78

Some of the inputs to this problem will change with each submission, so you will need to recompute your answer each time you resubmit. An investor is considering the purchase of Company X's two-year, zero coupon bond. She uses time value equations and the Opportunity Investment Method to analyze potential purchases. Assuming no market or macro-economic disruptions, she expects a 90% probability that the the issuing company will provide its promised CF2 (of 104). She thinks there is a 10% probability that the company will screw up and pay a CF2 of only 68.

Possibility Cash Flow 90% promised = $100 10% default = $60 When, for example, the promised Cash Flow is $100 and default Cash Flow is $60, expected Value of CF2 = 96.0 = 90%*100 + 10%*60 100.4

This answer is for the example case where compound interest is 6%. Your specific value of compound interest may be different.FV = $192,050(1.06)16 = $487,874.54 (Answer to this specific question is 419,221)

How much should you deposit today in an account paying 21% annual compound interest in order to get $550164 after 40 years?

This answer is for the example case where the year is 40. Your specific value of year may be different.PV = $550,164/(1.21)40 = $268.58 (Answer to this specific question is 268.58)

The Maybe Pay Life Insurance Co. is trying to sell you an investment policy that will pay you and your heirs $35,000 per year forever. If you require a return on this investment of 4.7 percent, how much will you pay for the policy?

This cash flow is a perpetuity. To find the PV of a perpetuity, we use the equation:PV = C/rPV = $35,000/.047PV = $744,680.85

What is the future value after 13.6 years of $74,381 that you deposit today in an account paying 12% annual compound interest?

This solution is for T = 14.5 years. Your numbers may vary. FV = 74,381*(1+12%)^14.5 = 384,701.02 (Answer to this specific question is 347,398)

Using your answer for r above, what is the Yield To Maturity (YTM) of this bond for someone who purchased the bond at today's asking price? Hint: YTM = EAIR.

YTM = EAIR = (1+1.0076%)^2 - 1YTM = 0.020

Google issued a bond on 1/1/20X1. The bond has $1,000 face value, a 8% coupon rate, and it matures on 1/1/20X9. Today, 1/2/20X7, the bond is trading at $990 per bond. The remaining contractual cash flows for this bond are as listed below. DateCash Flow7/1/20X7$401/1/20X8$407/1/20X8$401/1/20X9$401/1/20X9$1,000 What is the Yield to Maturity (YTM) of this bond today?Hints: Start with your answer from the previous Google bond question. Remember YTM = EAIR.

YTM = EAIR = (1+r)^2 - 1YTM = 0.088

Is this curve inverted? Hint: Recall that a yield curve graphs the yield relationship among Treasury bonds of varying maturities. In normal circumstances, the yields increase with the bond durations. Yield curves are inverted when yields decrease with duration. This rare circumstance often presages a recession. In fact, an inverted yield curve has signaled every U.S. recession since 1970.

Yes

Facebook has just issued its first bond. It's a 10 year issue with $1,000 face value and a 4% coupon rate. What is the yield to maturity?

r = APR/2 = 2% interest, compounded semi-annuallyYTM = EAIR = (1+r)^nper - 1YTM = 0.040

What is the future value of $3,100 in 17 years assuming an APR of 8.4% compounded semi-annually?

r = APR/Nper r = 8.4/2 = 4.20 percentFV = 3100*(1+4.2%)^(17*2) = 12556.37

You've just joined the investment banking firm of Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe. They've offered you two different salary arrangements. You can have a) $85,000 per year for the next two years, or you can have b) $74,000 per year for the next two years, along with a $20,000 signing bonus today. The bonus is paid immediately, and the salary is paid in equal amounts at the end of each month. If the appropriate APR is 7 percent compounded monthly, what is the PV for option b)?

r in monthly units = 0.005833 Monthly CF = 6166.6667 nMonths = T 24.0000PV = 157,733.11

Note: The given information for this problem changes with each attempt. Please be sure to re-compute your work each time you submit an answer. At EOY 20X1, BetaBank offers a one year CD with an APR of 3%, compounded quarterly. Inflation (rinf) is running at 4% annually at this time. What is the real rate of return on this CD? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to four decimal places and do not represent your answer as a percent. IE: write 0.2672 not 26.72%.

rannual = EAR (1 + 5%/4)^4 - 1 = 5.09%rr = r - rinf = 5.09% - 4.0% =1.09% -0.0097

An investor measures project-specific risk in future cash flows and uses time value equations with the Opportunity Investment Method to analyze potential purchases. Which discount rate should she use in her computations? Choose two correct answers for full credit. rm The EAIR for equivalent muni-bonds rocc The historical weighted-average, corporate bond discount rate. None of the listed answers.

Investors receive a 6% annual interest rate on their bank deposits. If the annual inflation rate is 4%, what is the real interest rate on these deposits?

rr = (r - rinf) when all time units are years and rinf < about 6% rr = 6% - 4% = 2%

The Treasury just sold a bunch of 5-year, zero coupon $100 face-value bonds for an interest rate (rrf) of 6.0%. If rinf is 2.0% at the time of the sale, then jumps to 3.0% the next day, what is (approximately) rrf of the bonds on the next day? Assume nothing changes overnight except for the jump in the inflation rate. Hint: Assume rrf = rinf + all other treasury bond interest rate risks.

rrf = rinf + all other treasury bond risks. At sale of bonds: rrf = 6% = 2% + 4% Next day: rrf = 3% + 4% = 7% (.07)

Some of the inputs to this problem will change with each submission, so you will need to recompute your answer each time you resubmit. An investor is considering the purchase of a medium-quality, two-year, zero coupon corporate bond. She uses time value equations Opportunity Investment Model to analyze potential purchases. She measures project-specific-risk in future cash flows, and she believes that the project-risk-adjusted CF2 for a prospective bond is 96. The promised CF2 for this bond is $100. The annualized risk-free rate (rrf) for two-year bonds is 2%. If she thinks she should pay just 76 for the bond today, what annual discount rate (r) did she use to get this value? Round your answer to three decimal places and do not represent your answer as a percent. IE: write 0.067 not 6.7%.

when today's price = $80, r = (96/80)^(1/2) - 1 0.124
