Jeff puts $100 into a fund that pays an effective annual rate of discount of 20% for the first two years and the force of interest δt = (2t)/(t^2+8), 2 ≤ t ≤ 4 for the next two years. At the end of four years, the amount in Jeff’s account is the same as what it would have been if he put $100 into an account paying interest at the nominal rate of i per annum compounded quarterly for four years. Calculate i.
Jeff starts with a sum P1 = $100 . The effective annual rate of discount is 20% for the first two years. This means Sum of money earned after Year 2 is P2= $100e20%*2 = $149.1825. The force of interest t is given as 2t/(t2 +8) for t=2 to t=4.
P3 = $149.1825e^(t) here substituting t=3 we get, $149.1825e^(6/17) = $212.3236
Similarly, by substituting t=4 , we get P4= $212.3236e^(8/24)= $296.3214
so the equivalent rate i per annum compounded quarterly for four years will be such that
$296.3214=$100e4i
Solving for i we get i = 6.79% quarterly rate or 27.16% annual rate (Answer)

4. Jeff deposits X into a fund today and 100 fifteen years later. Interest is credited at a nominal annual discount rate of 4.5% compounded quarterly for the first 10 years, and at a nominal annual interest rate of 6% compounded semiannually thereafter. The accumulated balance in the fund at the end of 30 years is 400. Calculate X. Give your answer rounded to the nearest whole number. Answer:

4. Assume that a fund will grow at a nominal annual discount rate of 2.5 %convertible monthly for the first three years, force of interest δt = (t) / ( 1+0.1t) for the next two years, effective annual rate of discount at 3% for the next three years and effective annual rate of interest of 3.5% thereafter. Calculate the present value now of 75000 to be paid in 9 years from now and of 100000 to be paid in 12...
A deposit of X is made into a fund which pays an rate of 12 for 8 years. At the same time, 2X is deposited into another fund which pays a continuous compounded rate (force of interest) of o for 8 years From the end of the 4th year until the end of the 8th year, both funds the same dollar amount of interest. Calculate d (A) 7.2% (B) 7.5% |(C) 7.8% (D) 8.1% (E) 8.4% annual effective discount earn...
Gloria deposited $100 into a fund and $200 ten years later. Interest is credited at a nominal discount rate of d compounded quarterly for the first 10 years, and at a nominal interest rate of 5% compounded quarterly thereafter. The accumulated balance in the fund at the end of 25 years is $1000. Calculate d.

A certain savings and loan company advertises that is pays 6% nominal interest, compounded quarterly. What is the effective interest rate per annum? If you deposit $6000 now and plan to withdraw it in five years, how much would the account be worth at that time? (Hint: to find the effective interest rate, use the formula: (1 + r/M)M-1.)
(20 points) You borrow $3000 for four years at an annual effective interest rate of i. The investor pays interest only on the loan at the end of each year and accumulates the amount necessary to repay the principal at the end of four years by making level payments at the end of each year into a sinking fund (an account used to accumulate money needed to pay back a debt). The sinking fund earns an annual effective interest rate...
