Chapter 3:
4) You need to have $50,000 at the end of 10 years. To accumulate this sum, you have
decided to save a certain amount at the end of each of the next 10 years and deposit it in
the bank. The bank pays 8 percent interest compounded annually for long-term deposits.
How much will you have to save each year (to the nearest dollar)?
10 = $50,000,
= 0.08
= 10
10 = (,) = [=1(1 + )] = [(1 + ) 1]/,
R = $3451.5.
5) Same as Problem 4 above, except that you deposit a certain amount at the beginning of
each of the next 10 years. Now, how much will you have to save each year (to the nearest
dollar)?
10 = $50,000,
= 0.08,
= 10
10 = (,) = [=1(1 + )+1] = 1+ [(1 + )
R = $3195.8.
9) The H & L Bark Company is considering the purchase of a debarking machine that is
expected to provide cash flows as follows:
If the appropriate annual discount rate is 14 percent, what is the present value of this
cash-flow stream?
14) Establish loan amortization schedules for the following loans to the nearest cent (see
Table 3.8 for an example):
a) A 36-month loan of $8,000 with equal installment payments at the end of each month.
The interest rate is 1 percent per month.
36 = 0(1%,36) = $8000(1 + 0.01)36 = $11446.15, 36 =
(1%,36) = (1.0136 1)/0.01,
36 = 36, R = $265.71

15) You have borrowed $14,300 at a compound annual interest rate of 15 percent. You feel that you will
be able to make annual payments of $3,000 per year on your loan. (Payments include both principal and
interest.) How long will it be before the loan is entirely paid off (to the nearest year)?

22) It took roughly 14 years for the Dow Jones Average of 30 Industrial Stocks to go from
1,000 to 2,000. To double from 2,000 to 4,000 took only 8 years, and to go from 4,000 to
8,000 required roughly 2 years. To the nearest whole percent, what compound annual
growth rates are implicit in these three index-doubling milestones?
Assume the rate from 1000 to 2000 as 1, 2000 to 4000 as 2, 4000 to 8000
as 3, then
2000 (1+1)14 =4000
4000 (1+1)8 =8000,
2000 (1 + 1)2 = 4000
So,
1 = 5.07% 2 = 9.05% 3 = 41.42%
