True or false: Time has a greater impact on a future value than the interest rate.
True
Reason:
Time is the exponential factor and thus time has a greater impact on the future value than the interest
rate.
$250 × 1.036
Reason:
The deposit was made one year ago and the FV is 5 years from now, thus, the exponent is 6.
Stu deposited $400 in an account three years ago. Last year, he deposited $250 and plans to deposit
$300 next year. The rate is 3 percent. Which one of these correctly states a portion of the formula
needed to compute the future value five years from today?
Multiple choice question.
$400 × 1.037
$400 × 1.035
$300 / 1.034

Year 7 will have three cash flows in the amounts of -$200, -$100, and -$100.
You have decided to invest for 20 years. You start with $200 a year and plan to increase that amount
every three years by an additional $100 a year with the first increase occurring in Year 4. You create a

The greater the number of time periods, the higher the future value, all else held constant.
Which one of these correctly summarizes the future value formula? Assume the interest rate is positive.
Multiple choice question.
The greater the number of time periods, the higher the future value, all else held constant.

FV2 = ($500 × 1.042) + ($300 × 1.04) + $800
Two years ago, Margo deposited $500 into a savings account. One year ago, she deposited an additional
$300, and today she deposited $800. Which one of these is the correct formula for computing the value
of these deposits today at a rate of 4 percent?
Multiple choice question.
FV2 = ($500 × 1.043) + ($300 × 1.042) + ($800 × 1.04)
FV2 = ($500 × 1.042) + ($300 × 1.04) + $800
PV2 = ($500/1.042) + ($300/1.04) + $800
FV2 = ($500 × 1.04) + $300 + $800/1.04

FV5 = $4,000 × 1.045
FV5 = $4,000 × [(1.045 -1)/0.04]
FV5 = $4,000 × [(1.04 - 1)5/0.04]

The annual payment for the first four years of a 5-year loan is computed as the amount borrowed times
the current market rate of interest.
A loan requires quarterly payments of $500. The loan will be repaid in full when the last $500 payment is
paid.

$793,133
Rationale:
Using a financial calculator: N = 34; I = 8; PV = 0; PMT = -5,000; CPT FV; FV = $793,133
FVA8 = $5,000 × {[(1 + 0.08)34 - 1]/0.08} = $793,133

FVA5 = [$50,000 × (1.07^5 - 1)/0.07] + [$30,000 × (1.07^3 - 1)/0.07]
Sis can afford monthly car payments of $180 for three years. How much can she borrow if the rate is 7

Stu deposited $400 in an account three years ago. Last year, he deposited $250 and plans to deposit
$300 next year. The rate is 3 percent. Which one of these correctly states a portion of the formula
needed to compute the future value five years from today?
$250 × 1.03^6
Rationale:
The deposit was made one year ago and the FV is 5 years from now, thus, the exponent is 6.
Tory invested $600 a year for three years, then $700 a year for an additional four years. In year 9, she
withdrew $1,500. She withdrew the entire investment in year 11. Which statement correctly applies to
the time line for this problem?
The cash flows for the first seven years are negative.
Rationale:
Withdrawals are cash inflows (positive values) and investments are cash outflows (negative values).
The cash flows are negative for the first seven years, but the amount in year 4 is $700, not $600.
While there are only nine cash flows, there are 12 time periods, including time 0. Time periods 0, 8, and
10 have no cash flows.
true or false: a cash outflow three years from now will appear as a positive value at year 3 on a present
value time line. Assume today is Time 0.
false
True or false: The lower the interest rate, the lower the present value of a set of multiple future cash
flows, all else held constant.
False
Rationale:
The lower the interest rate, the higher the present value. If you earn less interest, you need more money
today to obtain the same future values.

True or false: Time has a greater impact on a future value than the interest rate.
True
Rationale:
Time is the exponential factor and thus time has a greater impact on the future value than the interest
rate.
True or false: To calculate the future value of multiple annuities, simply compute the future value of each
one separately and add them together.
True
Rationale:
Each annuity is calculated separately as there is no cross compounding.

$300, and today she deposited $800. Which one of these is these is the correct formula for computing

What is the future value in year 7 of these cash flows: Year 0 = $200; Year 1 = -$100; Year 3 = $200; and
Year 4 = $200? The interest rate is 10%.
$771.61
Rationale:
FV7 = ($200 × 1.067) - ($100 × 1.066) + ($200 × 1.064) + ($200 × 1.063) = $771.31
What is the future value in year 7 of these cash flows: Year 0 = $200; Year 1 = $240; Year 3 = $300; and
Year 4 = $400? The interest rate is 6 percent.
$1,496.32
Rationale:
FV7 = ($200 × 1.067) + ($240 × 1.066) + ($300 × 1.064) + ($400 × 1.063) = $1,496.32
