Answer: $20,478.78
Explanation:
In 14 years the investment will be,
Gold
10,000/2 = 5000
Then use the compound interest formula
5000 * (1+0.07)^ 14 = $12,892.67
For Certificates of Deposits.
Use the Compound interest formula
Rate and period are in years. Convert to semi annual basis.
3%/ 2 = 1.5%
14 * 2 = 28 periods
= 5000 ( 1+ 0.015) ^ 28
= $7,586.11
Add both
=$12,892.67 + $7,586.11
= $20,478.78
Answer:
3.12%
Explanation:
We use formula in excel to calculate annual rate of return
Rate = (Nper,PMT,,FV,1)
Nper (number of payments): 30
PMT (payment made every period) : -$20,000
FV (future value of investment): $1,000,000
type 1 for payment beginning of period
Then rate = (30,-20000,,1000000,1)= 3.12%
Please see excel attached for the calculation
