A) $12,763.

B) $12,500.

C) $10,210.

---

PV = 10,000; I/Y = 5; N = 5; CPT → FV = 12,763.

or: 10,000(1.05)⁵ = 12,763.

Given a 5% discount rate, the present value of $500 to be received three years from today is:

A) $400.

B) $432.

C) $578.

---

N = 3; I/Y = 5; FV = 500; PMT = 0; CPT → PV = 431.92.

or: 500/1.05³ = 431.92.

A local bank offers a certificate of deposit (CD) that earns 5.0% compounded quarterly for three and one half years. If a depositor places $5,000 on deposit, what will be the value of the account at maturity?

A) $5,949.77.

B) $5,931.06.

C) $5,875.00.

---

The value of the account at maturity will be: $5,000 × (1 + 0.05 / 4)^{(3.5 × 4)} = $5.949.77;
or with a financial calculator: N = 3 years × 4 quarters/year + 2 = 14 periods; I = 5% / 4 quarters/year = 1.25; PV = $5,000; PMT = 0; CPT → FV = $5,949.77.

The value in 7 years of $500 invested today at an interest rate of 6% compounded monthly is closest to:

A) $760.

B) $780.

C) $750.

---

PV = -500; N = 7 × 12 = 84; I/Y = 6/12 = 0.5; compute FV = 760.18

A $500 investment offers a 7.5% annual rate of return. How much will it be worth in four years?

A) $668.

B) $892.

C) $650.

---

N = 4; I/Y = 7.5; PV = –500; PMT = 0; CPT → FV = 667.73.

or: 500(1.075)⁴ = 667.73

A certain investment product promises to pay $25,458 at the end of 9 years. If an investor feels this investment should produce a rate of return of 14%, compounded annually, what’s the most he should be willing to pay for it?

A) $9,426.

B) $7,829.

C) $7,618.

---

N = 9; I/Y = 14; FV = -25,458; PMT = 0; CPT → PV = $7,828.54.

or: 25,458/1.14⁹ = 7,828.54

If a person needs $20,000 in 5 years from now and interest rates are currently 6% how much do they need to invest today if interest is compounded annually?

A) $14,945.

B) $14,683.

C) $15,301.

---

PV = FV / (1 + r)ⁿ = 20,000 / (1.06)⁵ = 20,000 / 1.33823 = $14,945

N = 5; I/Y = 6%; PMT = 0; FV = $20,000; CPT → PV = -$14,945.16

If $10,000 is invested in a mutual fund that returns 12% per year, after 30 years the investment will be worth:

A) $10,120.

B) $300,000.

C) $299,599.

---

FV = 10,000(1.12)³⁰ = 299,599

Using TI BAII Plus: N = 30; I/Y = 12; PV = -10,000; CPT → FV = 299,599.
