Answer:

The Annual investment that you will to make will be $1,069.01

Explanation:

In order to calculate the uniform annual investment that will you have to make on the child's 8th through 17th birthdays to meet this goal, we have to make the following calculations:

First we need to calculate the Amount you have at the end of child's 8th year = 600*(1+0.05)^4 + 600*(1+0.05)^3 + 600*(1+0.05)^2 + 600*(1+0.05)^1 = $2,715.38

Therefore, Value of this amount at the end of 17th year = $2715.38 * (1+0.05)^9 = $4,212.45

So, Amount required to be saved = $16,000 - $4,212.45 = $11,787.55

Therefore, to calculate the annual investment we would have to use the following formula:

FV of annuity = P*[((1+r)^n - 1)/r]

P - Periodic payment =?

r - rate per period = 0.05

n - number of periods = 17-8 = 9

$11787.55 = P*(((1+0.05)^9 - 1)/0.05)

P = $11,787.55/11.03 = $1,069.01

The Annual investment that you will to make will be $1,069.01

Which is most true of an annual rate of 4% compounded quarterly? A) It is equivalent to 4.4% paid annually. B) It is equivalent

Artemon [7]

Answer:

D) It is equivalent to 4.06% paid annually

Explanation:

Since it is not talking about annuity and simple compound interest, therefore assuming investment value = $100 then interest will be as follows:

Interest for each quarter = $\frac{4}{100} \times \frac{3}{12}$ = 1%

But this 1% will be paid on the compounded value

Interest at end of Quarter 1 = $100 X 1% = $1

Compounded value at end of Quarter 1 = $100 + $1 = $101

Interest at end of Quarter 2 = $101 X 1% = $1.01

Compounded value at end of Quarter 2 = $101 + $1.01 = $102.01

Interest at end of Quarter 3 = $102.01 X 1% = $1.0201

Compounded value at end of Quarter 3 = $102.01 + $1.0201 = $103.0301

Interest at end of Quarter 4 = $103.0301 X 1% = $1.030301

Compounded value at end of Quarter 4 = $103.0301 + $1.030301 = $104.060401

Now net return annually = $4.060401/$100 = 4.06%

Final Answer

D) It is equivalent to 4.06% paid annually
