Explanation of Solution
1.
The annual interest rate is 8% and it is required to convert it compounded quarterly.
The interest rate is 8%.
Formula to calculate the conversion from annual interest rate to quarterly interest rate,
Substitute 8% for annual rate.
The interest rate is 2% quarterly.
Convert number of years into number of quarters
The time period is 2 years.
Formula to convert number of years into number of quarters,
Substitute 2 for number of years.
The numbers of quarters are 8 quarters.
In Table B.2 it is required to use the column which has 2% interest rate and 8 quarters.
Hence , for the 8% annually compounded quarterly use the column which shows 2% interest rate and 8 duration.
2.
The interest rate is 12%.
The discount factor in Table B.2 at 12% interest rate and 2 years is 1.2544.
Hence , for the 12% annual interest rate and 8 years use the column which has the discount factor 1.2544.
3.
The annual interest rate is 6% and it is required to convert it compounded semi-annually.
The interest rate is 6%.
Formula to calculate the conversion from annual interest rate to semi-annual interest rate,
Substitute 6% for annual rate.
The interest rate is 3% semi-annually.
Convert number of years into number of semi-annuals
The time period is 2 years.
Formula to convert number of years into number of semi-annuals,
Substitute 2 for number of years.
The numbers of semi-annuals are 4 semi-annuals.
In Table B.2 it is required to use the column which has 3% interest rate and 4 semi-annuals.
Hence , for the 6% annually compounded semi-annually use the column which shows 3% interest rate and 4 duration.
4.
The annual interest rate is 12% and it is required to convert it compounded monthly.
The interest rate is 12%.
Formula to calculate the conversion from annual interest rate to monthly interest rate,
Substitute 12% for annual rate.
The interest rate is 1% monthly.
Convert number of years into number of months
The time period is 2 years.
Formula to convert number of years into number of months,
Substitute 2 for number of years.
The numbers of months are 24.
In Table B.2 it is required to use the column which has 1% interest rate and 24 month.
Hence , for the 12% annually compounded semi-annually use the column which shows 1% interest rate and 12 duration.
