Explanation / Answer

a) taking par value = 1000 IF NOT MENTIONED

we get PV = 90 /.08 *(1-1/1.08^7) + 1000/1.08^7 =1052.0637


b) 1000 / 1.09^10422.4108


c) 4 / 0.08 = 50


d)75/.08 *(1-1/1.08^7) + 1000 /1.08^7 = 973.968



5) 4.5 / ( 0.15 - 0.06 ) = 50



6) 80/.07 *(1-1/1.07^15) + 1000/1.07^15 =1091 .0794



7)1000000 = FV /0 .11 *(1-1/1.11^20 ) IMPLIES FV =125575.6369

IF 55 REPLACE (1.11^20 BY 1.11^30 ) SO FV = 131311.7091


8) 3 / 0.065 = 46.15
