Future value. A speculator has purchased land along the southern Oregon coast. He has taken a loan with the end-of-year payme

NemiM [27]

Answer: Not a wise investment as Cost exceeds Receipts.

Explanation:

As the amount is a constant payment, it is an annuity and as it is in future we are looking for the future value of an annuity:

Future Value of Annuity = Annuity * [ ( 1 + rate ) ^ time period - 1] / rate

= 7,000 * [ ( 1 + 5%)⁸ - 1] / 5%

= $66,843.76

Speculator pays $66,843.76 for loan and sells for $50,000.

The speculator would be paying more for the loan than they will sell the land for so this is not a wise investment.
