Answer:

The most I could pay for the investment is $12,960.09  

Explanation:

The maximum a rational investor could pay acquire an investment is the present value of all future cash flows receivable from the investment.

In the case, the present of all cash flows is calculated thus:

Years  Cashflows [email protected] 12% PV

1          5000 0.892857143  4,464.29  

2          5300 0.797193878  4,225.13  

3           6000 0.711780248  4,270.68  

   Total of present values               12,960.09

The discounting factor is calculated using the formula :

1/(1+r)^n where r and n are rate and number of years respectively.

Alan Jackson invests $20,000 at 8% annual interest, leaving the money invested without withdrawing any of the interest for 8 yea
kondaur [170]

Answer:

a. $32,800

b. $37,019

c. $37,460

Explanation:

a. The computation of Total Amount Withdrawn by Alan when simple interest is shown below:-

Accumulated amount of money = Invested amount + (Rate of interest × Number of years)

= $20,000 + ($20,000 × 8% × 8)

= $32,800

b. The computation of Total Amount Withdrawn by Alan when annually Compounded is shown below:-

Accumulated amount of money = Invested amount × (1 + rate of interest)^Number of years

= $20,000 × (1 + 0.08)^8

= $20,000 × 1.85093

= $37,019

c. The computation of Total Amount Withdrawn by Alan when semi annually Compounded is shown below:-

Accumulated amount of money = Invested amount × (1 + rate of interest × Number of years ÷ 200)^16)

= ($20,000 × (1 + 0.08 × 8 ÷ 200)^16)

= $20,000 × 1.87298

= $37,460

Therefore we have applied the above formulas.

Why might a person decide to take advantage of a non-installment credit offer?
Korolek [52]
A person would take advantage of a non installment credit offer if there was no interest charged on on the loan. Many of these offers will not charge interest on the loans if the loan is paid off in a short amount of time. Usually within 3 to six months of the time the loan is started. These offers are usually for appliances and furniture. You can always ask the store you are visiting if they have these offers available. If you don't pay the loan off within the amount of time, you are then charged the interest and have a longer amount of time to pay the loan off.
