you plan to deposit $1,500 quarterly for 35 years at 7% interest, compounded monthly. how much will you have in the account in 3

VikaD [51]

After 35 years, you will have $911,053.82 in the account.

This is based on a quarterly deposit of $1,500 per year for a period of 35 years at 7% interest, monthly compounded.

Data and Calculations:

Quarterly Deposit = $1,500

Number of years = 35 years

N (# of periods) = 140 (35 x 4)

I/Y (Interest per year) = 7% (0.583% per month)

PV (Present Value) = 0

Quarterly PMT (Periodic Payment) = 1500

P/Y (# of periods per year) = 4

C/Y (# of times interest compound per year) = 12

PMT made at the of each period

Results:

Future Value = $911,053.82

Sum of all periodic payments = $210,000.00 ($1,500 x 140)

Total Interest = $701,053.82 ($911,053.82 - $210,000)

Thus, after 35 years, the account will have a balance of $911,053.82.

At an inflation rate of 7 percent, the purchasing power of $3 would be cut in half in 10.25 years. how long to the nearest year

lyudmila [28]

The applicable formula is;
A = P(1-r)^n

Where;
A = Final purchasing power
P = Current purchasing power
r = inflation
n = Number of years when P changes to A

Confirming the first claim:
A = 1/2P (to be confirmed)
P = $3
r = 7% = 0.07
n = 10.25 years

Using the formula;
A = 3(1-0.07)^10.25 = 3(0.475) ≈ 3(0.5) = $1.5
And therefore, A = 1/2P after 10.25 years.

Now, give;
P = $9
A = 1/4P = $9/4 = $2.25
r = 6.5% = 0.065
n = ? (nearest year).

Substituting;
2.25 = 9(1-0.065)^n
2.25/9 = (1-0.065)^n
0.25 = (1-0.065)^n
ln (0.25)= n ln(1-0.065)
-1.3863 = -0.0672n
n = (-1.3863)/(-0.0672) = 20.63 years

To nearest year;
n = 21 years

Therefore, it would take approximately 21 years fro purchasing power to reduce by 4. That is, from $9 to $2.25.

You are a U.S.-based treasurer with $1,000,000 to invest. The dollar-euro exchange rate is quoted as $1.50 = €1.00 and the dolla

Verdich [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is (B) Buy euro at $1.50/€, buy £ at €1.25/£, sell £ at $2/£

Explanation:

The dollar- euro exchange rate is quoted as $1.50 = €1.00

the dollar-pound exchange rate is quoted at $2.00 = £1.00

To calculate the actual cross rate we use; S(euro divided by pounds) = S(dollar/pounds) ÷ S(dollar/euro).

Using symbols to denote this, we have S(€/£) = S($/£) / S($/€)

S(€/£) = S(2/1) ÷ S(1.50/1)

= (2 / 1.5)

= €1.33.

Consequently, from this result we now know that the euro is undervalued with respect to pounds under the cross rate being offered by the bank. This implies that you should first buy the euro, convert to pounds, and eventually convert back to dollars, this would enable you make money as an investor.
