Jefferson Bank lent a newly graduated engineer $1000 at i = 10% per year for 4 years to buy home office equipment. From the bank’s perspective (the lender), the investment in this young engineer (the borrower) is expected to produce an equivalent net cash flow of $315.47 for each of 4 years.                                    A = $1000(A/P,10%,4) = $315.47 This represents a 10% per year rate of return on the bank’s unrecoveredbalance. Compute the amount of the unrecovered investment for each of the 4 years using (a) the rate of return on the unrecovered balance (the correct basis) and (b) the return on the initial $1000 investment (the incorrect basis).
