Present Value

Suppose you want to deposit a certain amount of money into a savings account, and then leave it alone to draw interest for the next 10 years. At the end of 10 years, you would like to have $10,000 in the account. How much do you need to deposit today to make that happen? You can use the following formula, which is known as the present value formula, to find out:

  P = F ( 1 + r ) n

The terms in the formula are as follows:

  • P is the present value, or the amount that you need to deposit today.
  • F is the future value that you want in the account. (In this case, F is $10,000.)
  • r is the annual interest rate.
  • n is the number of years that you plan to let the money sit in the account.

Write a method named presentValue that performs this calculation. The method should accept the future value, annual interest rate, and number of years as arguments. It should return the present value, which is the amount that you need to deposit today. Demonstrate the method in a program that lets the user experiment with different values for the formula’s terms.

Figure 1 shows an ASM chart representing the operation of a controller. Stateassignments for each state are indicated in square brackets for [Q1, Q0].Using the ASM design technique:(a) Produce a State Transition Table from the ASM Chart in Figure 1.(b) Extract minimised Boolean expressions from your state transition tablefor Q1, Q0, DISPATCH and REJECT. Show all your working.(c) Implement your design using AND/OR/NOT logic gates and risingedgetriggered D-type Flip Flops. Your answer should include a circuitschematic.
A controller is required for a home security alarm, providing the followingfunctionality. The alarm does nothing while it is disarmed (‘switched off’). It canbe armed (‘switched on’) by entering a PIN on the keypad. Whenever thealarm is armed, it can be disarmed by entering the PIN on the keypad.If motion is detected while the alarm is armed, the siren should sound AND asingle SMS message sent to the police to notify them. Further motion shouldnot result in more messages being sent. If the siren is sounding, it can only bedisarmed by entering the PIN on the keypad. Once the alarm is disarmed, asingle SMS should be sent to the police to notify them.Two (active-high) input signals are provided to the controller:MOTION: Asserted while motion is detected inside the home.PIN: Asserted for a single clock cycle whenever the PIN has beencorrectly entered on the keypad.The controller must provide two (active-high) outputs:SIREN: The siren sounds while this output is asserted.POLICE: One SMS…
