You manage a pension fund that promises to pay out $10 million to its contributors in five years. You buy $7472582 worth of par-

value bonds that make annual coupon payments of 6% and mature in five years. Right after you make the purchase, the interest rate on same-risk bonds decreases to 4.5%. If the rate does not change again and you reinvest the coupon payments that you receive in same-risk bonds, how much will you fall short of the money that you promised

Answer :

Shortfall of money = $74,598

Explanation :

As per the data given in the question,

Par value of bond = $7,472,582

To determine the future value of annual coupon payments received, we will use FV of annuity's formula

FV of Annuity = P [(1 + r)^n- 1 ÷ r]

where,

P = Periodic payment

r = interest rate

n = Time period

here P = 6% of $7,472,582 = $448,354.92

r = 4.50%

n = 5 years

FV of Annuity = $448,354.92 × [(1 + 4.50%)^5 - 1) ÷ 4.50%]

=$2,452,820

Shortfall at the end of 5 years is

= $10,000,000 - $7,472,582 - $2,452,820

= $74,598

Today, you borrowed $3,200 on a credit card that charges an interest rate of 12.9 percent, compounded monthly. How long will it
miskamm [114]

Answer:

<em>It will take me </em>= <em>30.99 years</em> to pay-off the borrowed amount paying $60.00 every month

Explanation:

SOLUTION:

Using the Formula: A = P(1+r/n){nt}

Where:

A= $60.00;

P = $3,200.00;

r = 12.9%;

n = 12

t =?

Substituting the values into the Formula =

$60 = $3,200(1 + 12.9%/12){12t}

= $60 = $3,200(1 + 12.9%/12){12t}

= $60.00 = $3,200.00 (1 + 0.129/12){12t}

= $60.00 = $3,200.00 (1 + 0.01075 ){12t}

= $60.00 = $3,200.00 (1.01075 ){12t}

= $60.00/$3,200.00 = $3,200.00 (1.01075 ){12t}/$3200.00

= 0.01875 = (1.01075)12t

= Using the law of logarithm

= logA^{N} = Nlog A

=12tlog(1.01075) = log0.01875

= 12log(1.01075)/(1.01075) = log0.01875/log(1.01075)

=  12t = log(0.01875)/log1.01075

= 12t = 1.7270/0.04644

Divide 12 by both sides

=12t/12 = 371.88774/12

t= 30.9898

<em>∴ 30.99 years</em>

<em>It will take me </em>= 30.99 years to pay-off the borrowed amount paying $60.00 every month
