Please help me solve this. Please show every step or excel formula so I can understand Question: A worker saves $100 from each monthly paycheck in an account that pays a nominal interest rate of 9 percent, compounded monthly. For how many years must the worker make these monthly deposits in order to accumulate $500,000? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Do not use currency signs such as "$."
Maria deposits $1,300 in a savings account that pays interest at an annual compound rate of 4.0%. Two years after the deposit, the interest rate increases to 5.0% compounded annually. A second deposit of $2,700 is made immediately after the interest rate changes to 5.0%. How much will be in the fund 7 years after the second deposit? $ Round your final answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 52.75. The cell tolerance is ±0.03
Now that young King Solomon has inherited the kingdom of Israel, and a massive amount of wealth that he can invest, he wants to plan for his "retirement." Since he doesn't know how long he'll live, and data on life expectancy is scarce, he reasons that he just wants a regular "cash flow" over the course of his life. With that in mind, how many shekels would he need to deposit at 20 percent interest compounded every year in order to be able to withdraw 50 shekels at the end of every year for seventy years?
A cash flow at time zero (now) of $7,386 is equivalent to another cash flow that is an EOY annuity of $2,100 over five years (starting at year 1). Each of these two cash-flow series is equivalent to a third series, which is a uniform gradient series. What is the value of G for this third series over the same five-year time interval? Assume that the cash flow at the end of year one is zero. Choose the correct answer below. A. $1,050 B. $702 OC. $949 OD. $1,195 OE. Not enough information given.
