Problem 1
If interest rates are 8 percent, what is the future value of a $400 annuity payment over six years? Unless otherwise directed, assume annual compounding periods.
Periodic Deposit=R=$400
Number of periods=n=6
Rate of interest=i=8%
Future Value of ordinary annuity=FV=R/i*((1+i)^n-1)=400/8%*((1+8%)^6-1)=$ 2934.37
-Recalculate the future value at 6 percent interest and 9 percent interest.
If Rate of interest=i=6%
Future Value of ...
