Problem C-3A Determine present value alternatives (LOC-2, C-3)Hollywood Tabloid needs a new state-of-the-art camera to produce its monthly magazine. The company is looking at two cameras thatare both capable of doing the job and has determined the following:Camera 1 costs $5,300. It should last for eight years and have annual maintenance costs of $260 per year. After eight years, themagazine can sell the camera for $370.Camera 2 costs $4,800. It will also last for eight years and have maintenance costs of $830 in year three, $900 in year five, and$1,000 in year seven. After eight years, the camera will have no resale value. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1) (Useappropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)Required:1-a. Assume that an interest rate of 9% properly reflects the discount rate in this situation and that maintenance costs are paid at theend of each year.

Please show working Someone promises to pay you $1,000 in years 5, 10 and 15 for a total of $3,000. Assume your required return is 8%. a. what is the duration of this promise to pay you $3,000 over 15 years? b. what's the convexity? c. using the duration estimate alone, what is the estimated percentage price change in t=0 value if rates are expected to increase 2%?
Payment amounts at the end of each of the next five years are $10,450, $8,500, $9,675, $12,500, and $11,635.
