The council members of a small town have decided that the earth
levee that protects the town from flooding should be rebuilt and
strengthened. The town engineer estimates that the cost of the work
at the end of the first year will be $68,000. He estimates that in
subsequent years the annual repair costs will decline by $7000,
making the second-year cost $61,000; the third-year $54,000, and so
forth. The council members want to know what the equivalent
present cost is for the first 5 years of repair work if interest is 6%.
A rich singer has donated $355,841 to endow a university professorial chair in Bohemian Studies. If the money is invested at 18.03%, how much can be withdrawn each year, ad infinitum (indefinitely), to pay the Professor of B.S.?
Joseph and three other friends bought a $290,000 house close to the university at the end of August last year. At that time, they put down a deposit of $20,000 and took out a mortgage for the balance. Their mortgage payments are due at the end
of each month (September 30, last year, was the date of the first payment) and are based on the assumption that Joseph and his friends will take 20 years to pay off the debt. Annual nominal interest is 6 percent, compounded monthly. It is now
February. Joseph and his friends have made all their fall-term payments and have just made the January 31 payment for this year. How much do they still owe?

This means that the full 9% of interest is added to the account at the end of one year. This doesn't sound very fair to someone that invests their money for 11 months-they get no interest at all. This became a competitive disadvantage for financial institutions, and some began to divide the annual interest into periodic shares, so that (for example) you could get 1/12th of that 9% each month. When this happens, we say that interest is compounded monthly. Interest can also be compounded weekly (52 times per year), quarterly (4 times per year), daily (365 times per year), or really any other period you could think of. If interest is compounded monthly, what growth factor would be needed to provide 1/12th of 9% interest each month? (Think about the difference between interest rate and growth factor.)

- Home heating accounts for approximately one-third of energy consumption in a typical U.S. household. Despite soaring prices of oil, coal, and natural gas, one can make his/her winter heating bill noninflationary by installing an ultra convenient corn burning stove that costs in the neighborhood of $2,400.That's right - a small radian theating stove that burns corn and adds practically nothing to global warming or air pollution can be obtained through www.magnumfireplace.com. Its estimated annual savings per household in fuel is $300 in a regular U.S. farming community. Do the annual savings more than offset the cost of installing and maintaining a corn-burning stove? What other factors besides dollars might influence your decision to use corn for your home heating requirements? Assume the problem setting is in Tennessee. Also assume that stove will be used for 11 years. Work this problem without considering the time value of money.

As part of the refining process, a certain heat exchanger (operated at high temperatures and withabrasive material flowing through it) must be replaced every year. The replacement and downtime cost in the first year is $175,000. This cost is expected to increase due to inflation at a rate of 8% per year for five years, at which time this particular heat exchanger will no longer be needed. If the company’s cost of capital is 18% per year, how much could you afford to spend for a higher quality heat exchanger so that these annual replacement and downtime costs could be eliminated?arrow_forward
