Annuity payments are assumed to come at the end of each payment period (termed an ordinary annuity). However, an exception occur

s when the annuity payments come at the beginning of each period (termed an annuity due). What is the future value of a 18-year annuity of $2,000 per period where payments come at the beginning of each period? The interest rate is 5 percent. Use Appendix C for an approximate answer, but calculate your final answer using the formula and financial calculator methods. To find the future value of an annuity due when using the Appendix tables, add 1 to n and subtract 1 from the tabular value. For example, to find the future value of a $100 payment at the beginning of each period for five periods at 10 percent, go to Appendix C for n = 6 and i = 10 percent. Look up the value of 7.716 and subtract 1 from it for an answer of 6.716 or $671.60 ($100 × 6.716). (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answer:

The future value of a 18-year annuity of $2,000 per period where payments come at the beginning of each period is $59,078.

Explanation:

We apply the formula to calculate future value of annuity to find the future value of 18-year annuity as at the beginning of year 18 ( because payment comes at the beginning of the year):

2,000/5% x (1.05^18 -1) = $56,264.77.

We further compound the future value of 18-year annuity as at the beginning of year 18 for one period to come up with the future value of this annuity as at the end of 18 year time:

56,264.77 x 1.05 = $59,078.

So, the answer is $59,078.

The next time you need to make a choice, your brain will use what what method?
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Imagine you have just flicked a lighter. If you don’t see the flame, you will naturally try a second time. If after the second attempt it does not strike a flame, you will repeat your action again and again until it does. Eventually, you’ll see the flame and you’ll know that your lighter works. But what if it doesn’t? How long are you going to flick the lighter until you decide to give up?

Our everyday life is full of such decision dilemmas and uncertainty. We constantly have to choose between options, whether we make the most ordinary decisions – should I continue flicking this lighter? – or life-changing choices – should I leave this relationship? We can either keep on doing what we are already used to do, or risk unexplored options that could turn out much more valuable.

Some people are naturally inclined to take more chances, while others prefer to hold on to what they know best. Yet being curious and explorative is fundamental for humans and animals to find out how best to harvest resources such as water, food or money. While looking at the Belém Tower – a symbol of Portugal’s great maritime discoveries – from my office window, I often wonder what drives people to explore the unknown and what goes on in their brains when weighing pros and cons for trying something new. To answer these questions, together with Dr. Zachary Mainen and his team of neuroscientists, we investigate how the brain deals with uncertainty when making decisions.

Explanation:

It is well known that the decision-making process results from communication between the prefrontal cortex (working memory) and hippocampus (long-term memory). However, there are other regions of the brain that play essential roles in making decisions, but their exact mechanisms of action still are unknown.

A degree in Risk Management is a form of academic degree granted to students in a post-secondary program focused on Risk Management. A student, university and business school may earn risk management degrees.

The sum of confusion that occurs in a given situation.

For example, if the heads are selected in a coin toss, the amount of risk involved is 50 per cent, as there is a 50 per cent probability that every coin toss will end up with tails. See also the Theory of Large Number, Odds and Probability.

A company had beginning inventory of 12 units at a cost of $15 each on March 1. On March 2, it purchased 12 units at $24 each. O
Tema [17]

Answer:

The cost of the 28 units sold is $548

Explanation:

In the given question,  

On March 1 it purchase 12 units for $15 = 12 units × $15 = $180

On March 2 it purchase 12 units for $24 = 12 units × $24 = $288

On March 6 it purchase 7 units for $20 = 7 units × $20 = $140

And, on march it sold 28 units for $63 each  

The 28 units could be taken from  

12 × $15 = $180

12 × $24 = $288

And remaining 4 units × $20 = $80

So, the total cost of units sold = $180 +$288 +$80 = $548

If a one-year bond has a face value of $5,000 and is sold for $4,500, what is the interest rate on the bond?
Arada [10]

Answer:

11.1%

Explanation:

The face value is $5000

It is sold for $4,500

Therefore the interest rate of this bond can be calculated as follows

$5000-$4500

= 500

500/4500 × 100

= 0.111 × 100

= 11.1%

Hence the interest rate is 11.1%
