An investment promises to pay into an account that pays you 6 percent annually, $150 per month for the next twenty-two years. Suppose the first deposit into the account is made one month from today what is the value of the amount which will be in the account at the end of thirty years? Rounded to 2 decimal places. (Answer up to 2 decimal places)

Suppose that you are considering an investment, which would require you to pay $1,000 up front (today), and you would receive a payment of $100 per year, for 5 years, beginning one year from now. One year after your fifth payment, you would then have $800 paid to you as a final payment. Assume that the interest rate is equal to 5%. Round all answers to two decimal places. 5. Calculate the Present Value (PV) of the cost and each of the payments for the investment. Does this investment have a positive or negative present value? Should you make this investment? 6. How much would the initial cost ($1,000) need to change for you to be exactly indifferent about this investment? (i.e. you receive the same return for making this investment as you do for not making this investment?)
Suppose you purchase a $10,000 face value zero-coupon bond and hold it to maturity, a term of 10 years. You paid $8,072 for the bond. A) What was your expected yield to maturity? B) What was your actual rate of return? % Enter answers as percents and round to 2 decimal places.
How would I figure this out. The equation I’ve been using for bonds is Y=ai/p Ai for annual interest P for price of bond. Question: One year before maturity the price of a bond with a principal amount of $1000 and a coupon rate of 5% paid annually fell to $981. The one-year interest rate must be: A) 7.0% B) 1.9% C) 5.0% D) 8.5% McGrawHill says that 7% is the correct answer but I don’t know how to do the math to get that.
2. Pretend that today is your birthday and you decide to start saving for your retirement. You will retire on your 65th birthday and need $4,000 per month for the next 20 years, increasing $100 per month after the first month. You will make your first withdrawal on your 65th birthday, the day you retire. You will make the first deposit today in an account paying 7% interest compounded daily, and continue to make the same $123.07 equal weekly deposits up to your 60th birthday, then you stop making deposits. What birthday are you celebrating today? Create a cash flow diagram.
31) Suppose in 2017 you buy two year $1,000 face-value 5% coupon bond for $1,000. In 2018, interest rates decrease to 2%. If you decide to sell your bond in 2018, what will be the selling price of your bond and one-year rate of return for you? A) $1,020; 7% B) $1,000; 2% C) $971; -2.1% D) $1,029.4; 7.9%
Consider a U.S. Treasury Bill with 270 days to maturity. The face value is $100. If the annual yield is 4.7 percent, what is the price? (Note: Treat 270 days as 9 months, or 9/12 of a year using a 360-day year.)
The real risk-free rate is 2.1%. Inflation is expected to be 2.35% this year, 4.45% next year, and then 2.75% thereafter. The maturity risk premium is estimated to be 0.05(t- 1)%, where t-number of years to maturity. What is the yield on a 7-year Treasury note? Round your answer to two decimal places.
Suppose that a 2-year zero-coupon bond with face value $1,000 currently sells at $840, while a 1-year zero-coupon bond with face value $1,000 currently sells at $920. You are considering the purchase of a 2-year coupon bond that pays coupon annually. The face value of this coupon bond is $1,000 and coupon rate is 12% per year. Required: a. What is the yield to maturity of the 2-year zero-coupon bonds? b. What is the current price of the 2-year coupon bond? c. What is the forward rate of the second year? d. If the expectation hypothesis is accepted, what are (1) the expected price of the coupon bond at the end of the first year and (2) the expected holding period return on the coupon bond over the first year? e. Will the expected rate of return be higher or lower if you accept the liquidity preference hypothesis?
