Suppose that you have the option to lease a new Mitsubishi Eclipse, which you otherwise intend to buy. You must put $2000 down, and will make payments of $307 per month for 48 months, at the beginning of each month. Upon termination, you can purchase the car for an additional payment of $7000 at lease expiration. Alternatively, the dealer has offered to finance the purchase at 6.7% APR for 48 months, with nothing down, yielding payments of $467 per month at the end of each month. If you choose to purchase the car using dealer financing, rather than choosing the lease-purchase option, how much have you saved (+) or lost (-) on the effective purchase price of the car in dollars and cents. (make your answer positive when you save, negative when you are paying more.)

You finish your engineering degree with $17,350 in student loans. The interest rate on your loans is 0.6% per month. The loan repayment period is 10 years and your monthly payment is set to be $203.24 [= $17,350(A/P, 0.6%, 120)]. Question 1: You can reduce the interest rate to 0.5% per month if you agree to repay the loan over the next 5 years. If you agree to this, how much is the monthly payment? Round your answer to the nearest cent (e.g., 473.24). Question 2:
The nominal interest rate is 14% compounded semiannually. What amount will need to be deposited every six months to be able to have enough money to pay three annuity payments of $20,000 for three years beginning at the end of year seven? The deposits begin now and continue every six months until six deposits have been made. The amount to be deposited every six months is $ (Round to the nearest dollar.)

Suppose that you drive 36,000 miles per year and gas averages $3.60 per gallon. What will you save in annual fuel expenses by owning a hybrid car averaging 40 miles per gallon rather than an SUV averaging 12 miles per gallon?

Round all computations to the nearest dollar.
4) (28 points) An employee has decided to make annual contributions over a 15-year period into a retirement fund. She wants to make her first contribution of $5,000 one year from now (t=1). She then plans to increase her annual contribution by $500 each year for the remaining years. The fund is expected to earn 15% per year compounded annually. She decides to retire in 15 years (from now). a) (20 points) Assuming that the fund will be depleted when the last withdrawal is made, what equal amount can she withdraw annually for a period of 10 years starting one year after retirement? b) (8 points) If she wants the fund to have a balance at the time of the 10th withdrawal exactly equal to the balance it had when she retired, what equal amount can she withdraw annually for a period of 10 years starting one year after retirement?
Suppose that on September 30, 2021, a person opened an investment account with an initial deposit of $20,000. The account guarantees to pay interest at a nominal annual rate of 6%, compounded monthly. The person plans to deposit $3,000 into the account at the end of each and every month starting on October 31, 2021 and ending on March 31, 2024 (a total of 30 additional deposits). (a) How much money will be in the account after the 30th additional deposit is made? (b) What is the total amount of interest that will be earned over the 30-month planning horizon? (c) What is the effective annual interest rate that will be earned? Express your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent, i.e., in the form xx.x%.
