Exercise B-10 (15 minutes)

1. $90,000 x 0.6651 (using Table B.1, i = 6%, n = 7) = $59,859.
2. $20,000 x 2.4869 (using Table B.3, i = 10%, n = 3) = $49,738.

Exercise B-15 (15 minutes)

10 years x 4 quarters = 40 interest periods
8% annual / 4 quarters per year = 2% per quarter
In Table B.2, where n = 40 and i = 2%, the f = 2.2080.
Total accumulation = 2.2080 x $7,200 = $15,897.60

Exercise B-16 (15 minutes)

12% annual / 12 months per year = 1% per month
2.5 years x 12 months per year = 30 total months
In Table B.4, where n = 30 and i = 1%, the f = 34.7849.
Total accumulation = 34.7849 x $50 = $1,739.25

Exercise B-17 (15 minutes)

10 years x 4 quarters per year = 40 total quarters
12% annual / 4 quarters per year = 3% per quarter
In Table B.2, where n = 40 and i = 3%, the f = 3.2620.
In Table B.4, where n = 40 and i = 3%, the f = 75.4013.
3.2620 x $100,000 =
75.4013 x $50,000 =

$ 326,200 future value of initial investment

3,770,065 future value of periodic investments
$4,096,265 future value of fund

Exercise B-18 (15 minutes)

In Table B.2, where n = 9 and i = 7%, the f = 1.8385.
Future value of investment = $163,170 x 1.8385 = $299,988
