securities on the market. As an investor looking for protection against inflation, you are considering the purchase of inflation-adjusted bonds known as U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). With these securities, the face value (which is paid at maturity) is regularly adjusted to account for inflation; however, the semiannual interest payment (called the bond dividend) remains the same. You purchased a 10-year $10,000 TIPS bond with dividend of 4% per year payable semiannually (i.e., $200 every 6 months). Assume there is no inflation adjustment for the first 5 years, but in years 6 through 10, the bond face value increases by $1200 each year. You use an expected investment return of 14.5% per year compounded semiannually. What will be the equivalent future worth of the total money received with dividend reinvestment included? The future worth of all the income received would be $
