Table 1: Set 2, Part 3 Questions

1. How much will you have saved after 6 years by contributing [tex]$\$1,200$[/tex] at the end of each year if you expect to earn [tex]11\%[/tex] on the investment?

2. A business owner plans to deposit their annual profits in an investment account earning a [tex]9\%[/tex] annual return. If the owner starts with their first deposit today of [tex]$\[tex]$22,000$[/tex][/tex] and expects to make the same profit for the next 7 years, how much will be saved for retirement at that point?

3. An investor plans to invest [tex]$\$500$[/tex] per year and expects to get a [tex]10.5\%[/tex] return. If the investor makes these contributions at the end of the next 20 years, what is the present value (PV) of this investment today?

4. What is the PV of a 12-year lease arrangement with an interest rate of [tex]7.5\%[/tex] that requires annual payments of [tex]$\[tex]$4,250$[/tex][/tex] per year with the first payment due now?

5. A recent college graduate hopes to have [tex]$\$200,000$[/tex] saved in their retirement account 25 years from now by contributing [tex]$\[tex]$150$[/tex][/tex] per month in a [tex]401(k)[/tex] plan. The goal is to earn [tex]10\%[/tex] annually on the monthly contributions.

### Detailed Solution for Part 2 Question 2

To find out how much the business owner will have saved after 7 years by making annual profits deposited at an annual return of 9%, starting with an initial deposit of [tex]$22,000 made today, let's break down the problem into two primary components: 1. Value of the annuity (annual deposits): Calculation of the future value of a series of equal annual deposits made at the end of each year. 2. Value of the initial deposit: Calculation of the future value of the initial deposit made at the start of the investment period. #### Component 1: Future Value of the Annuity The future value of an annuity formula is given by: \[ FV_{\text{annuity}} = P \times \left(\frac{(1 + r)^n - 1}{r}\right) \] Where: - \( P \) = annual deposit ($[/tex]22,000 in this case)
- [tex]\( r \)[/tex] = annual return rate (0.09 in this case)
- [tex]\( n \)[/tex] = number of years (7 years in this case)

The future value of the annuity at the end of the period (considering they are made at the end of each year but compounded annually) also needs to include one more year of growth because the first deposit is made at the start of the investment period.

#### Component 2: Future Value of the Initial Deposit

The future value of the initial deposit is given by:
[tex]\[ FV_{\text{initial}} = P \times (1 + r)^n \][/tex]

Where:
- [tex]\( P \)[/tex] = initial deposit ([tex]$22,000 in this case) - \( r \) = annual return rate (0.09 in this case) - \( n \) = number of years (7 years in this case) #### Solution: Now, let's calculate both components: 1. Future Value of the Annuity (Annual Deposits): \[ FV_{\text{annuity}} = 22000 \times \left(\frac{(1 + 0.09)^7 - 1}{0.09}\right) \times (1 + 0.09) = 220626.42 \, \text{(approximately)} \] 2. Future Value of the Initial Deposit: \[ FV_{\text{initial}} = 22000 \times (1 + 0.09)^7 = 40216.86 \, \text{(approximately)}\] Combining both: \[ \text{Total Amount Saved} = FV_{\text{annuity}} + FV_{\text{initial}} = 220626.42 + 40216.86 = 260843.28 \, \text{(approximately)} \] Thus, the total amount saved by the business owner after 7 years would be approximately $[/tex]260,843.28.
