Note: Some solutions are not provided due to the nature of the problems.
21.1 Compute the future value of the following deposits made today:
(a) $10,000 at 6.75% compounding annually for 10 years
(b) $10,000 at 6.75% compounding quarterly for 10 years
(c) $10,000 at 6.75% compounding monthly for 10 years
SOLUTION
(a)
F = P (1 + i ) n = 10000(1 + .0675)10 = $19216.70
(b)
i nm 0.0675 (10 )( 4 ) 0.0675 40
F = P (1 + ) = 10000(1 + ) = 10000(1 + ) = $19530.02
m 4 4
(c)
i nm 0.0675 (10 )(12 ) 0.0675 120
F = P (1 + ) = 10000(1 + ) = 10000(1 + ) = $19603.21

21.2 Compute the interest earned on the deposits made in Problem 21.1.
SOLUTION
(a) Interest = $19216.70 − $10000 = $9216.70
(b) Interest = $19530.02 − $10000 = $9530.02
(c) Interest = $19603.21 − $10000 = $9603.21

21.6 Using Excel or a spreadsheet of your choice, create interest-time factor tables,
similar to Table 21.9, for i = 6.5% and i = 6.75%.
