Question

Find the following values, using the equations, and then work the problems using a financial calculator to check your answers. Disregard rounding differences. (Hint: If you are using a financial calculator, you can enter the known values and then press the appropriate key to find the unknown variable. Then, without clearing the TVM register, you can "override" the variable that changes by simply entering a new value for it and then pressing the key for the unknown variable to obtain the second answer. This procedure can be used in parts b and d, and in many other situations, to see how changes in input variables affect the output variable.)

Answer 1

a.

Initial Amount (PV) = $800

Interest rate (i) = 9.9%

Time (n) = 1 year

FV = ?

putting the values

b.

Initial Amount (PV) = $800

Interest rate (i) = 9.9%

Time (n) = 2 year

FV = ?

putting the values

c.

Amount Due in Future (FV) = $800

discount rate(i) = 9.9%

Time (n) = 1 year

Present value (PV) = ?

putting the values

d.

Amount Due in Future (FV) = $800

discount rate(i) = 9.9%

Time (n) = 2 year

Present value (PV) = ?

putting the values
