We are given with the equation
<span>balance = -17,732 + 367 * age +1300 *years education + 0.116 * household wealth
</span>-17,732 is a constant amount credited from the savings acount
367 is the amount saved per year of age
1300 is the amount saved per year of education

Answer:
a. 12% per year
Explanation:
Effective interest rate
r = (1 + i/n)^n - 1
r = effective interest rate
i = simple interest rate compounded monthly
n =  number of compound intervals
12.68% = ((1+i/12)^12)-1)
1+0.1268 = ((1+i/12)^12)
1.1268^(1/12) =1+i/12
1.010 = 1+i/12
1.010-1 = i/12
0.010 x 12 = i
i = 0.12 = 12%
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
1.15%.
Explanation:
This can be calculated as follows:
Yield be on a 10-year TIPS = Rate of return on the 10 year T-bond - Average Inflation - Market Risk Premium (MRP)
Therefore, we have:
Yield be on a 10-year TIPS = 4.05% - 2.0% - 0.9% = 1.15%
Therefore, the yield on a 10-year TIPS should be 1.15%.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Quarterly deposit= $3,182.78
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
A sinking fund earns 7% compounded quarterly and produces $50,000 at the end of 3.5 years.
We need to find the quarterly deposit made at the end of each period. 
<u>First, we need to calculate the quarterly interest rate:</u>
Interest rate= 0.07/4= 0.0175
To calculate the deposit, we need to use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= quarterly deposit
Isolating A:
A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}
n= 3.5*4= 14
FV= 50,000
i= 0.0175
A= (50,000*0.0175)/ [(1.0175^14)-1]= $3,182.78
