Answer:
Interest rate is 9.59%
Step-by-step explanation:
The interest rate the investment must earn in order that the death benefit could of $81,000 in 24 years' time can be derived from the rate formula in excel spreadsheet.
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of years the $9,000 would be invested for i.e 24 years
pmt is the periodic additional investment which is zero
pv is the amount invested today i.e $9000
fv is the amount of death benefit payable in 24 years' time that is $81000
=rate(24,0,-9000,81000)=9.59%
OK. Here we go:
Step #1: Write the equation on your paper.
Step #2: Add 3 to each side of the equation.
Step #3: With the result of step-#2, divide each side of the equation by 2.
If your result of step-#3 is not 4.5, then go back to step-#1, and go through
all 3 steps again, trying to be more careful and focused.
