Answer:

$ 127,773.36

Explanation:

The professor will be in sabbatical  in years 7,  14, 21, 28, 35 and 42

In each of these years, he receives full pay amounting to=50,000

The PV of the sabbatical full pay

= \frac{50,000}{1.04^7} + \frac{50,000}{1.04^14} + \frac{50,000}{1.04^21} + \frac{50,000}{1.04^28} + \frac{50,000}{1.04^35} +\frac{50,000}{1.04^42} = 84,101.22

=50,000/(1+4%)^7+ 50,000/(1+4%)^14+ 50,000/(1+4%)^21+ 50,000/(1+4%)^28+50,000

/(1+4%)^35+ 50,000/(1+4%)^42

==50,000/(1+4%)^7+ 50,000/(1+4%)^14+ 50,000/(1+4%)^21+ 50,000/(1+4%)^28+50,000

/(1+4%)^35+ 50,000/(1+4%)^42

= \frac{50,000}{1.316} + \frac{50,000}{1.732} + \frac{50,000}{2.279}  +\frac{50,000}{2.999} +\frac{50,000}{3.946} + \frac{50,000}{5.193}

=37,993.92 + 28,868.36 + 21,939.45 + 16,672.22 + 12,671.06 + 9,628.35

=  $ 127,773.36

Thus, at an interest rate of 4%, the present value of all the sabbatical earnings amount to $ 127,773.36

Assume the real rate of return is 3.37% and the inflation rate is 1.47%. Find the nominal rate of return using the exact formula
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

4.89%

Explanation:

Real rate of return = 3.37%

Inflation rate = 1.47%

The nominal rate of return is computed as shown below:

= [ (1 + real rate of return) x (1 + inflation rate) ] - 1

= [ (1 + 0.0337) x (1 + 0.0147) ] - 1

= (1.0337 * 1.0147) - 1

= 1.04889539 - 1

= 0.04889539

= 4.889539%

= 4.89% approx.
