Larry Davis borrows $80,000 at 14 percent interest toward the purchase of a home. His mortgage is for 25 years. a. How much will his annual payments be? (Although home payments are usually on a monthly basis, we shall do our analysis on an annual basis for ease of computation. We will get a reasonably accurate answer.) b. How much interest will he pay over the life of the loan? c. How much should be willing to pay to get out of a 14 percent mortgage and into a 10 percent mortgage with 25 years remaining on the mortgage? Assume current interest rates are 10 percent.

You are chairperson of the investment fund for the local closet. You are asked to set up a fund of semiannual payments to be compounded semiannually to accumulate a sum of $250,000 after nine years at a 10 percent annual rate (18 payments). The first payment into the fund is to take place six months from today, and the last payment is to take place at the end of the ninth year. Determine how much the semiannual payment should be. (a) On the day, after the sixth payment is made (the beginning of the fourth year), the interest rate goes up to a 12 percent annual rate, and you can earn a 12 percent annual rate on funds that have been accumulated as well as all future payments into the funds. Interest is to be compounded semiannually on all funds. Determine how much the revised semiannual payments should be after this rate change (there are 12 payments and compounding dates). The next payment will be in the middle of the fourth year.
