Description
For each problem, show the formula used and all calculations used.
1. Adam deposited $10,000 in a 5-year CD which pays 4.2% compounded monthly. Find the account value at the end of the 5th year and the amount of interest earned during this 5 year period.
2. Bob wants to have $20,000 available in 3 years. How much should he deposit now if he can get an interest rate of 3.2% compounded quarterly and how much interest will he get?
3 .David deposits $500 at the end of each month for 7 years in an account paying 3.6% compounded monthly. He then puts the total amount on deposit in another account paying 4%interest compounded semiannually for another 8 years. Find the final amount on the deposit after the entire 15 year period.
4. Charles needs $15000 in 5 years. How much must he deposit at the end of each month for 5 years in an account paying 3.9% compounded monthly so that he will have $15000 in 5 years.
5. A $100,000 loan is taken out at 8.22% compounded monthly for 30 years for the purchase of a house. The loan requires monthly mortgage payments.
a) Find the amount of each payment
b)Find the total interest paid over the life of the loan

Explanation & Answer
The solution is attached in .pdf and .docx format.Kindly ask me any question if you find anything confusing.
Question 1
Adam deposited $10,000 in a 5-year CD which pays 4.2% compounded monthly. Find the
account value at the end of the 5th year and the amount of interest earned during this 5 year period.
Solution
The future value at the end of a period of a fixed sum that is compounded periodically is:
𝑟 𝑛𝑘
𝐹𝑉 = 𝑃𝑉 (1 + )
𝑘
Where: PV = Present Value of fixed sum or deposit
r = annual percentage rate
k = number of compounding periods in one year
n = number of years
For the given question,
PV = $10,000
4.2
r = 4.2% = 100 = 0.042
k = 12 (i. e monthly compounding)
n = 5 years.
0.042 5×12
∴ FV = 10,000 × (1 +
)
12
FV = 10000(1 + 0.0035)60
FV = 10000(1.0035)60 = 10000 × 1.23322582
FV = $12,332.26
The account value at the end of the 5th year is $𝟏𝟐, 𝟐𝟑𝟑. 𝟐𝟔
Amount of Interest earned = FV − PV
= 12,332.26 − 10,000
= $2332.26
The amount of interest earned during the 5 year period is $𝟐𝟑𝟑𝟐. 𝟐𝟔
Question 2
Bob wants to have $20,000 available in 3 years. How much should he deposit now if he can get
an interest rate of 3.2% compounded quarterly and how much interest will he get?
Solution
The present value at the beginning of a period of a fixed sum a period that is compounded
periodically is:
𝑃𝑉 =
𝐹𝑉
𝑟 𝑛𝑘
(1 + )
𝑘
Where: FV = Future Value of fixed sum or deposit
r = annual percentage rate
k = number of compounding periods in one year
n = number of years
For the question,
FV = $20,000
3.2
r = 3.2% = 100 = 0.032
k = 4 (i. e quarterly compounding)
n = 3 years.
∴ PV =
20000
(1 +
𝑃𝑉 =
0.032 3×4
4 )
20000
20000
20000
=
=
12
12
(1 + 0.008)
1.008
1.10033869
𝑃𝑉 = $18,176.22
The amount Bob should deposit now is $𝟏𝟖, 𝟏𝟕𝟔. 𝟐𝟐
Amount of Interest earned = FV − PV
= 20,000 − 18,176.22
= $1,823.78
The amount of interest Bob would get in the 3 year period is $𝟏, 𝟖𝟐𝟑. 𝟕𝟖.
Question 3
David deposits $500 at the end of each month for 7 years in an account paying 3.6% compounded
monthly. He then puts the total amount on deposit in another account paying 4% interest
compounded semiannually for another 8 years. Find the final amount on the deposit after the entire
15 year period.
Solution
This problem has two parts:
Part 1: Periodic payments
The Future Value of periodic payments at the end of each period is given by:
𝑟 𝑛𝑘
(1 + ) − 1
𝑟 𝑛𝑘
𝑘
𝐹𝑉 = 𝑃𝑉 (1 + ) + 𝑃𝑀𝑇 ∙
𝑘
𝑟/𝑘
Where: PV = Present Value of or initial deposit
r = annual percentage rate
k = number of compounding periods in one year
n = number of years
𝑃𝑀𝑇 = 𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑜𝑑𝑖𝑐 𝑝𝑎𝑦𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑎𝑚𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡
PV = $0
PMT = $500
k = 12 (i. e monthly compounding)
∴ FV1 = 0 (1 +
0.036
)
12
FV1 = 0 + 500 ×
7×12
3.6
r = 3.6% = 100 = 0.036
n = 7 years.
0.036 7×12
(1 + 12 )

+ 500 ∙
0.036/12
(1.003)84 − 1

FV1 = 500 × 95.370255
FV1 = $47,685.13
Part2: Fixed sum
The future value at the end of a period of a fixed sum that is compounded periodically is:
𝑟 𝑛𝑘
𝐹𝑉 = 𝑃𝑉 (1 + )
