Ok,
so these two I%26#039;m confused on too...it%26#039;s for a PRE-test so it%26#039;s worth really nothing
29. Rank the following three bank deposit options from best to worst.
-Bank A: 7% compounded daily
-Bank B: 7.1% compounded monthly
-Bank C: 7.05% compunded continuously
LASTLY
28.
Three different investments:
a) Find the balance of each of the investments after the 2 year period.
b) rank them from best to worst in terms of rate of return. (PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY ALSO!!!...thanks!)
-A. $875 deposited at 13.5% per year compounded daily for 2 yrs.
-B. $1000 deposited at 6.7% per year compounded continuously for 2 years.
-C. $1050 deposited @ 4.5% per year compounded monthly for 2 yrs.
Please show all work so that i understand it. Thanks!
MATH people...continuous growth!!! THanks!?auto financing
29. You just need to examine the growth parts of the compound interest formulas:
A= P(1 + r/n)^(nt) growth rate is (1 + r/n)^(nt)
-Bank A: 7% compounded daily, let t = 1 year
(1 + .07/365)^(365) = 1.0725
-Bank B: 7.1% compounded monthly
(1+ .071/12)^12 = 1.07336
and for continuous compounding
A = Pe^(rt) growth rate is e^(rt)
-Bank C: 7.05% compunded continuously
e^.0705 = 1.07304
best to worst: B,A, C
28. -A. $875 deposited at 13.5% per year compounded daily for 2 yrs.
A = 875(1+.135/365)^(365*2)
A = $1146.16
-B. $1000 deposited at 6.7% per year compounded continuously for 2 years.
A= Pe^(rt)
A = 1000 e^(.067 * 2)
A = $1146.39
-C. $1050 deposited @ 4.5% per year compounded monthly for 2 yrs
A = 1050(1 + .045/12)^(12*2)
A = $1148. 69
b) rate of returns, compare the growth parts again (part multiplied to the principal)
Bank A: (1+.135/365)^(365*2) = 1.3099
Bank B: e^(.067 *2) = 1.1434
Bank C: (1 + .045/12)^(12*2) = 1.09399
best to worst: A, B, C
You can also see that Bank A was only 23 cents shy of Bank B after 2 years, but started with $125 less. So Bank A got better return. Bank C had about $2 more than the others after 2 years, but started with an extra $50
