Please help! questions about money, business, banking?finance
1. ) Assuming you don%26#039;t withdraw the interest it should be compounded annually in 3 years. $10 x (1.10^3) = $13.31
2.) To earn have $150 with an interest rate of 10%, you must deposit $112.70. If you leave that amount today in 3 years at 10% compounded you should have $150.
3.) The amount you will pay is $1,027.23. Notice the amount is larger than the face value of the bond since the prevailing interest rate is lower than what the bond is offering (6% vs. 5%) $60/$1000 x 100 = 6%.
4.) The amount you will pay is $973.27. Notice the amount is smaller than the face value of the bond since the prevailing interest rate is higher than what the bond is offering (5% vs. 6%) $50/$1000 x 100 = 5% , so you get it cheaper.
for 3.) and 4.) use the =pv function of excel or any financial calculator. you may also use the pvf table (present value factor = pvf)
Keep practicing !
