Answer:

The one-day rate of return on the index is 3.43%

Explanation:

Given that the shares were priced at;

$30 for 710,000 shares

$38 for 610,000 shares

$90 for 310,000 shares

Changes in prices of shares

$34-$30=4

$36-$38= -2

$92-$90=2

Return=change in price of shares/initial price of shares *100

The return will be;

4/30*100 =13.33

-2/38*100= -5.26

2/90*100 = 2.22

Total = 13.33+2.22 - 5.26 =10.29

10.29/3 =3.43

James Perkins wants to have a million dollars at retirement, which is 15 years away. He already has $200,000 in an IRA earning 8

Lelu [443]

Solution :

Given :

James needs $ 1,000,000 after 15 years.

His IRA deposit is $ 200,000 and is earning at the rate of 8% per annum.

Maturity value of $200,000 after 15 years = $2000000 \times( 1.08)^{15}$

= $ 634,434.

Balance fund needed after 15 years = 1,000,000 - 634,434

= $ 365,566

Therefore, the future value of the annuity is :

$FV=A[\frac{(1+k)^n-1}{k}]$

Here, FV = future annuity value = 365,566

A = periodical investment

k = interest rate = 8%

n = period = 15 years

∴ $365566 = A\frac{[(1.08)^{15}-1]}{0.08}$

A = 13,464

Thus, James needs to save $ 13,464 each year end to reach his target.
