$1000
d. The change in the value of a bond caused by changing
interest rates is called interest-rate risk. Based on the answer: in
parts b and c, a decrease in interest rates (the yield to maturity)
will cause the value of a bond to (increase/decrease):
Increase
By contrast in interest rates will cause the value to
(increase/decrease):
decrease
Also, based on the answers in part b, if the yield to maturity
(current interest rate) equals the coupon interest rate, the bond
will sell at (par/face value):
exceeds the bond's coupon rate, the bond will sell at a
(discount/premium):
and is less than the bond's coupon rate, the bond will sell at a
(discount/premium):

Based on risk analysis, common stock A is the better investment
since it has a lower variance and standard deviation of 0.035
compared to that of stock B at 0.070.This implies that there is
less uncertainty associated with returns from stock A which
makes it less risky.

1. After placing $8,000 in a savings account paying annual
compound interest of 8%, calculate the amount that will
accumulate if it is left for 8 years?
FV = PV X (1 +r) n
= 8,000 x (1.08)8
= $14,807.44
2. If you deposit $17,000 today in an account earning an annual
rate of return of 10%, how much interest would be earned in the
third year? How much would this amount differ from simple
interest?
35. Compound Interest
FV = PV X (1 +r) n
= 17,000 x (1.1)3
= $22,627
Simple interest
Principal X Rate x Time
= 17,000 x 10% x 3
= 17,000 + 5100
= 22,100
Difference
$22,627 - $22,100
= $527
3. To pay for your education, you have taken out $28,000 in
student loans. If you make monthly payments over 13 years at
5% compounded monthly, how much are your monthly student
loan payments?

4. What is the present value of a $650 perpetuity discounted
36. back to the present at 10%? What is the present value of the
perpetuity?
PV = Coupon per period/ Discount rate
PV = $650/0.10
= $6,500
5. How much do you have to deposit today so that, beginning 11
years from now, you can withdraw $9,000 a year for the next 8
years (periods 11 through 18) plus an additional amount of
$18,000 in the last year (period 18)? Assume an interest rate of
6%.
PV = 9000((1-(1+0.06)-8)/0.06)
=$55,888.14
PV = FV/ (1+I) n
= 55,888.14/ (1+0.06)10
= 31,207. 64
