Answer:

Real purchasing power increase= 2.16%

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

You deposit $1,900 in your savings account that pays an annual interest rate of 3.25%. The inflation rate is 1.09%.

In this example, we have two different and opposite effects. The interest rate increases your purchasing power. If the inflation rate is 0, the purchasing power will increase (in one year) 3.25%.

The inflation rate decreases the purchasing power of nominal income.

Real purchasing power increase= annual interest rate - inflation rate

Real purchasing power increase= 3.25 - 1.09= 2.16%

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

a. $965.74

b. $939.11

Explanation:

In this question we use the Present value formula i.e shown in the attachment below:

1. Given that,  

Future value = $1,000

Rate of interest = 6.5%

NPER = 4 years

PMT = $1,000 × 5.5% = $55

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

So, after solving this, the price would be $965.74

2. Given that,  

Future value = $1,000

Rate of interest = 6.5%

NPER = 8 years

PMT = $1,000 × 5.5% = $55

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

So, after solving this, the price would be $939.11

My pension plan will pay me $10,000 once a year for a 10-year period. The first payment come in at the end of 6th year from now.
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

0.75163

Explanation:

So, we are given the following data or parameters or information which is going to help us in solving the question above;

=> Payment for the pension = $10,000 once a year for a 10-year period.

=> Time for the first payment = ''end of 6th year from now''.

=> Type of Pension plan for immunization = " 5-year zero-coupon bond and 20-year zero coupon bond to construct the immunization position''

=> Interest rate = 10%.

Therefore, the weight on the 5-year zero-coupon bond can be calculated as follows:

Duration = (Weight × 5) + [( 1 - weight) × 20].

=> 5b + 20 - 20b = 8.7255.

=> b = 0.75163.

Therefore, the weight on the 5-year zero-coupon bond is 0.75163.

The weight on the 20- year zero-coupon bond = 1 - 0.75163= 0.2884.
