Suppose that annual income from a rental property is expected to start at $1,330 per year and decrease at a uniform
amount of $40 each year after the first year for the 15-year expected life of the property. The investment cost is $7,000,
and i is 7% per year. Is this a good investment? Assume that the investment occurs at time zero (now) and that the
annual income is first received at EOY one.
Click the icon to view the interest and annuity table for discrete compounding when i = 7% per year.
The present equivalent of the rental income equals $. (Round to the nearest dollar.)
Is this a good investment? Choose the correct answer below.
Yes
No
Nick, age 30, is starting his savings plan this year by putting away $2,900.00 at the end of every year until he reaches age 65. He will deposit this money at his local savings and loan at an interest rate of 6%.
The future value annuity interest factor is 111.4348.
You can also use the excel future value (FV) function to solve this problem.
=FV(rate,nper,pmt,[pv],[type])
•
rate: The interest rate per period. This input is required.
•
nper: The total number of payment periods. This input is required.
•
pmt: The constant payment made in each period. This input is required if pmt is omitted.
•
pv: The present value or lump-sum amount. This input is required if pmt is omitted.
•
type: A 0 or 1 depending on if payments are due at the beginning or end of the period. This input is optional and 0 will be used if it is omitted.
Based on the information provided, by the time Nick turns 65, he will have

Suppose that annual income from a rental property is expected to start at $1,270 per year and decrease at a uniform amount of $40 each year after the first year for the 16-year expected life of the property. The investment cost is $8,200, and i is
7% per year. Is this a good investment? Assume that the investment occurs at time zero (now) and that the annual income is first received at EOY one.
