Q

calculate the PV of a 6year annuity of £4000 at r = 8%.

A

PV = C x 1 - [1/(1+r)^t]
——————
r
PV = 4000 x 1 -[1/(1.08)^6]
——————-
0.08
PV = £18491.50

Q

you borrow £30,000 at an interest rate of 12% and plan to repay the loan using a 10 year annuity. calculate the annual repayment.

A

PV = C x 1 - [1/(1+r)^t]
——————
r
30000 = C x 1 - [1/(1.12)^10]
———————-
0.12
C = 30000 / 5.65
C = £5309.50

Q

what is the EAR?

A

effective annual rate. same thing as annual percentage rate (APR)

17
Q

investing £100 for a year at a flat rate of 10%, calculate :
1. annual compound
2. semi-annual compound
3. monthly compound

A
  1. 100 x 1.1 = £10 interest
  2. 100 x [1 + (0.1/2)]^2 = £10.25 interest
  3. 100 x [1 + (0.1/12)]^12 = £10.47 interest
18
Q

what are nominal interest rates?

A

actual market rates

19
Q

give the equation to calculate real return.

A

1 + real rate = 1 + nominal rate / 1 + inflation rate

real rate ≈ nominal rate - inflation rate
