Based on the calculations below, the amount originally borrowed by Colin is $10,006.67.

<h3>How do we calculate the original amount using PV formula?</h3>

To solve this question, the following present value (PV) formula will be used:

PVn = Pn / (1 + r)^n ........................... (1)

Where:

PVn = Present value of an amount paid in year n

P = Amount paid in year n

r = quarterly interest rate = 7.16% / Number of quarters in a year = 0.0716 / 4 = 0.0179

n = number of quarters = Number of years * Number of quarters in a year = Number of years * 4

Using equation (1), we can therefore proceed as follows:

PV3 = PV of $5,000 paid after three years = $5,000 / (1 + 0.0179)^(3 * 4) = $4,041.18

PV5 = PV of $5,000 paid after another 2 years (after 3 years + 2 years = 5) = $5,000 / (1 + 0.0179)^(5 * 4) = $3,506.45

PV10 = PV of $5,000 paid after another 5 years (after 3 years + 2 years + 5 years = 10) = $5,000 / (1 + 0.0179)^(10 * 4) = $2,459.04

Therefore, we have:

Original amount borrowed = PV3 + PV5 + PV10 = $4,041.18 + $3,506.45 + $2,459.04 = $10,006.67

Bentley is going to invest $98,000 and leave it in an account for 7 years. Assuming
den301095 [7]

Answer:

The rate of interest for compounded daily is 2.1 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The principal investment = $ 98,000

The Time period for investment = 7 years

Let The rate of interest compounded daily = R %

The Amount at the end up = $ 114,000

<u>From compounded method</u>

Amount = Principal × (1+\dfrac{rate}{365\times 100})^{365\times Time}

Or, $ 114,000 = $ 98,000  × (1+\dfrac{R}{365\times 100})^{365\times 7}

Or, \frac{114000}{98000} = (1+\dfrac{R}{36500})^{2555}

or, 1.16326 = (1+\dfrac{R}{36500})^{2555}

or, (1.16326)^{\frac{1}{2555}} = 1 + \frac{R}{36500}

1.00005919 - 1 =  \frac{R}{36500}

or, 0.00005919 =  \frac{R}{36500}

∴ R =  0.00005919 × 365000 = 2.16

Hence the rate of interest for compounded daily is 2.1 6   Answer
