Answer 1

Answer:

A. The first cash flow of an annuity due is made on the first day of the agreement.

G. The last cash flow of an ordinary annuity is made on the last day covered by the agreement.

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

Future value after 4 years is

= Annual deposit  × Cumulative FV factor at 9% for 4 periods of an ordinary annuity

= $6,000 × 4.57313

= $27,439

Therefore the above statements are true and the same is to be considered

Hence, all other statements are incorrect
