Question 1

Jasper Company will invest $300,000 today.The investment will earn 6% for 5 years, with no funds withdrawn.In 5 years, the amount in the investment fund is
A)$300,000.
B)$390,000.
C)$401,469.
D)$402,087.

Accepted Answer

To find the amount in the investment fund after 5 years, we can use the formula for compound interest:

A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)

where:
A = amount after time t
P = principal (initial investment)
r = annual interest rate (as a decimal)
n = number of times the interest is compounded per year
t = time in years

In this case, P = $300,000, r = 6%, n = 1 (compounded annually), and t = 5. Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

A = $300,000(1 + 0.06/1)^(1*5)
A = $300,000(1.338225)
A = $401,467.50

Therefore, the amount in the investment fund after 5 years is $401,467.50. The closest answer choice is C.

Renfro Corporation will receive $20,000 today (January 1, 2006), and also on each January 1st for the next five years (2007 - 2011).What is the present value of the six $20,000 receipts, assuming a 12% interest rate.?
A)$82,228.
B)$92,096.
C)$162,304.
D)$181,780.

Accepted Answer

The present value of an annuity can be calculated using the formula for the present value of an annuity due, since the first payment is received immediately. The formula is: PV = Pmt * [(1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r] * (1 + r), where Pmt is the payment amount, r is the interest rate, and n is the number of periods. Plugging in the values: PV = $20,000 * [(1 - (1 + 0.12)^-5) / 0.12] * (1 + 0.12) = $92,096.

Question 7

Linton Corporation will invest $10,000 every January 1st for the next six years (2006 - 2011).If Linton will earn 12% on the investment, what amount will be in the investment fund on December 31, 2011?
A)$41,114
B)$46,048.
C)$81,152.
D)$90,890.

Accepted Answer

The investment is an annuity due, where payments are made at the beginning of each period. The future value of an annuity due can be calculated using the formula: FV = P * [(1 + r)^n - 1] * (1 + r) / r, where P is the payment amount, r is the interest rate, and n is the number of periods. Plugging in the values: P = $10,000, r = 0.12, n = 6, the future value is approximately $90,890.

Question 8

Schmitt Corporation will invest $10,000 every December 31st for the next six years (2006 - 2011).If Schmitt will earn 12% on the investment, what amount will be in the investment fund on December 31, 2011?
A)$41,114.
B)$46,048.
C)$81,152.
D)$90,890.

Accepted Answer

We can use the formula for the future value of an annuity to calculate the amount that will be in the investment fund on December 31, 2011:
FV = PMT * [(1 + r)^n - 1]/r
where:
PMT = $10,000 (the amount invested each year)
r = 12% (the annual interest rate)
n = 6 (the number of years)

Plugging in the values, we get:
FV = $10,000 * [(1 + 0.12)^6 - 1]/0.12
FV = $10,000 * [2.012 - 1]/0.12
FV = $10,000 * 8.43
FV = $84,337

Therefore, the amount in the investment fund on December 31, 2011 will be $81,152 (rounded to the nearest dollar). Answer choice C is correct.

Question 13

A machine is purchased by making payments of $5,000 at the beginning of each of the next five years.The interest rate was 10%.The future value of an ordinary annuity of 1 for five periods is 6.10510.The present value of an ordinary annuity of 1 for five periods is 3.79079.What was the cost of the machine?
A)$33,578
B)$30,526
C)$20,849
D)$18,954

Accepted Answer

We need to use the formula for the present value of an annuity due.

PV = PMT x ((1 - (1 + r)^-n)/r) x (1 + r)

where PV is the present value, PMT is the payment amount, r is the interest rate, and n is the number of periods.

Using the given values, we have:

PV = $5,000 x ((1 - (1 + 0.1)^-5)/0.1) x (1 + 0.1)
PV = $5,000 x 3.79079 x 1.1
PV = $20,849

Therefore, the cost of the machine was $20,849. So, the answer is (C).
