Answer:

2.5% is the current two years interest rate

Explanation:

If the first year interest rate is 2% and expected coming year interest rate is 3% based on the hypothetical projection which is believed to be correct, then the interests rate for the two years will be the average of the interest of the two years in focus which gives us:

Current IR = IR (yr 1) + IR (yr 2) / no of years

Current IR = 2 + 3 / 2 = 2.5

Answer: $828

Explanation:

Given the following :

Semi-annual payment = $40

Period = 20 years

Number of payments = (20 * 2)(semiannual) = 40 payments

Par value = $1000

Interest rate = 5%

Using the PV table:

PV at $1 (40, 5%) = 0.1420

PVA at $1 (40, 5%) = 17.159

[Par value * PV at $1 (40, 5%)] + [$40 * PVA at $1 (40, 5%)]

= ($1000 * 0.1420) + ($40 * 17.159)

= $142 + $686.36

=$828.36

= $826
