5. (20pts) Mr. Frohardt donated $40,000 toward future scholarships. The scholarships are to be paid according to the following schedule: end of year 1: $1,000, end of year 2: $1,500, end of year 3: $2,000, and so on... with the amount increasing $500 each year until the scholarship reaches $5,000. The annual scholarship will remain at $5,000 until the fund is depleted. If the account balance is less than $5,000 at the end of any year (i.e., after the awarding of the $5,000 for that year), that remaining amount immediately will be awarded as a smaller scholarship, and the account will be closed. The scholarship fund earns interest at an effective annual rate of 8%. Determine how many full $5,000 scholarships will be awarded. Solution:

The average household income in the City of Santa Rosa (CA) is reported to be $75,000 per year, but the city finance manager believes that the average income is much higher due to the recent relocations of several high-tech firms to the city from the Silicon Valley. The city then commissioned a study using 2,000 residents and found that the average income is $85,000 with a o = $10,000. Let a = 1%. H₂: Mean = μ $75,000 What's the critical Z-value for this test?

45. Use the following information regarding an equal-weighted equity index and assume that all dividend payments are made at the end of the year. Security Price at the End of 2020 Price at the End of 2021 Dividends per Share A $20 $25 $0.50 B $50 $45 $0.20 C $31.25 $36 $0.40 D $100 $135 $0.50 Note: The dollar value of the index on December 31, 2020 is $10,000 and using a divisor of 10, the index level equals 1,000. The weight of Security B in the index on December 31, 2021 before rebalancing is closest to: a. 18.55% b. 25.00% c. 19.35% d. 22.15% e. 16.75%

A proposed project has the following cash flow estimates.Assuming statistically independent cash flows, a normally distributed net present value, and a minimum attractive rate of return of 15%, determine the following. For the following questions, employ an analytical solution: a. the mean and standard deviation of net present value. b. the probability that the net present value is negative. c. the probability that the net present value is greater than $1,000,000. Assume the initial investment and annual receipts are normally distributed. d. Using a Monte Carlo simulation with 10,000 iterations, estimate the probability that the present worth is negative.
6) A manufacturing firm may decide to buy an adjacent property so that it can expand its warehouse. If financed through the seller, the property's price is $280,000, with 15% down and the balance due in five annual payments at 10%. The seller will accept 8% less if cash is paid. The firm does not have $240,000 in cash, but it can borrow this amount from a bank. What is the rate of return or IRR for the loan offered by the seller?
