What is the biannual effective discount rate corresponding to a nominal interest rate of 11% convertible every two year | |
Discount Rate = 1-(1-22%/4)^4 | 20.25% |
What is the accumulated value at 10 years of 10 payments increasing arithmetically from $11 at the end of year 1 to $20 at the end of year 10 given an annual interest rate of 4%. | |||
F = 1(A/G,4%,10) | |||
F = 1 x 4.177 | 4.177 | ||
F = 10 + 4.177 | 14.177 | ||
