Assume that you gave a cash payment commitment to be effected 10 years from now amounting to 98 million shillings. You can only save for the next 4 years at a rate of 10 million shillings a year by depositing the amount at the end of each year to a savings bank account which pays interest at a rate of 12 percent per annum. The rate of interest is expected to remain stable over the next 10 years. (a) What deficit will you have at the end of the 10th year when the payment falls due? (b) If you are given a chance to borrow money free of charge, an amount which can be deposited today as a lump sum to the same account against the expected deficit at the end of year 10, how much would you borrow?

Compute the future value in year 9 of a $3,900 deposit in year 1 and another $3,400 deposit at the end of year 5 using a 9 percent interest rate. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.) What is the future value of a $970 annuity payment over four years if interest rates are 8 percent? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.) Compute the present value of a $3,200 deposit in year 1 and another $2,700 deposit at the end of year 3 if interest rates are 10 percent. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)
