2. If the interest rate is constant over the 30-year term, what are the month-end payments for the mortgage? What will be the total interest paid on the hotel over the term? When the renovations to the hotel are finished (including the name 'Rest for the Wicked' in stylish lettering on the front), Nelson is pleased to find that they were completed under-budget, costing him only $2,370,000. 3. Nelson invests the surplus in another high-yield investment that earns 15.3% compounded quarterly. How much is this investment worth in 5 years' time? After 5 years of owning the hotel, Nelson's investment matures and he decides to use this balance to capitalize on an opportunity to open a small bed and breakfast near a golf course, the Chip Inn.

3. A business is considering purchasing a machine that is projected to yield cash, savings of $1,000 per year over a 10-year period. Using a 12 percent discount rate, calculate the present value of the savings. (Assume that the cash savings occur at the end of each year). 4. Yolanda William is 35 years old today and is beginning to plan for her retirement. She wants to set aside an equal amount at the end of each of the next 25 years so that she can retire at age 60. She expects to live to an age of 80 and wants to be able to withdraw $50,000 per year from the account on her 61st through 80th birthdays. The account is expected to earn 10 percent per year for the entire period of time. Determine the size of the annual deposits that she must make. 5. How much must you deposit at the end of each year in an account that pays a nominal annual rate of 20 percent, if at the end of five years you want $10,000 in the account? 6. A leading broker has advertised money multiplier certificates that will triple your money in nine years; that is, if you buy one for $333.33 today, it will pay you $1,000 at the end of nine years. What rate of return will you earn on these money multiplier certificates? 7. Your great-uncle Claude is 82 years old. Over the years, he has accumulated savings of $80,000. He estimates that he will live another 10 years at the most and wants to spend his savings by then. (If he lives longer than that, he figures you will be happy to take care of him) Uncle Claude places his $80,000 into an account earning 10 percent annually and sets it up in such a way that he will be making 10 equal withdrawals- the first one occurring one year from now- such that his account balance will be zero at the end of 10 years. How much will he be able to withdraw each year? 8. Jim Nance has been offered a future payment of $500 three years from today. If his opportunity cost is 7% compounded annually, what value should he place on this opportunity today? What is the most he should pay to purchase this payment today?

Problem 9-07 (Algorithmic) As part of the settlement for a class action lawsuit, Hoxworth Corporation must provide sufficient cash to make the following annual payments (in thousands of dollars): Year 1 2 3 4 5 6 Payment 185 225 290 310 360 450 The annual payments must be made at the beginning of each year. The judge will approve an amount that, along with earnings on its investment, will cover the annual payments. Investment of the funds will be limited to savings (at 4.25% annually) and government securities, at prices and rates currently quoted in The Wall Street Journal. Hoxworth wants to develop a plan for making the annual payments by investing in the following securities (par value = $1000). Funds not invested in these securities will be placed in savings. Security Current Price Rate (%) Years to Maturity 1 $1035 6.75 3 2 $1000 5.425 4 Assume that interest is paid annually. The plan will be submitted to the judge and, if approved, Hoxworth will be required to pay a trustee the amount that will be required to fund the plan. Use linear programming to find the minimum cash settlement necessary to fund the annual payments. Let F = total funds required to meet the six years of payments G1 = units of government security 1 G2 = units of government security 2 Si = investment in savings at the beginning of year i Note: All decision variables are expressed in thousands of dollars. If required, round your answers to five decimal places. For subtractive or negative numbers use a minus sign even if there is a + sign before the blank. (Example: -300) Min F s.t. F + G1 + G2 + S1 = G1 + G2 + S1 + S2 = G1 + G2 + S2 + S3 = G1 + G2 + S3 + S4 = G2 + S4 + S5 = S5 + S6 = Round your answer to the nearest dollar. If an amount is zero, enter "0". Current investment required $ Investment in government security 1 $ Investment in government security 2 $ Investment in savings for year 1 $ Investment in savings for year 2 $ Investment in savings for year 3 $ Investment in savings for year 4 $ Investment in savings for year 5 $ Investment in savings for year 6 $ Use the dual value to determine how much more Hoxworth should be willing to pay now to reduce the payment at the beginning of year 6 to $400,000. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $ Use the dual value to determine how much more Hoxworth should be willing to pay to reduce the year 1 payment to $150,000. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. Hoxworth should be willing to pay anything less than $ . Suppose that the annual payments are to be made at the end of each year. Reformulate the model to accommodate this change. Note: All decision variables are expressed in thousands of dollars. If required, round your answers to five decimal places. For subtractive or negative numbers use a minus sign even if there is a + sign before the blank. (Example: -300) Min F s.t. 1) F + G1 + G2 + S1 = 2) G1 + G2 + S1 + S2 = 3) G1 + G2 + S2 + S3 = 4) G1 + G2 + S3 + S4 = 5) G2 + S4 + S5 = 6) S5 + S6 = 7) S6 + S7 = How much would Hoxworth save if this change could be negotiated? Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $
Suppose you want to save money to pay for a down payment on an apartment in 5 years' time. One year from now, you will invest your $30,000 year-end bonus for the down payment. If you can invest at 15% per year, how much interest will you receive on your cash in 5 years? If you need $210,000 for the down payment and you would like to top up the remaining amount by investing a lump sum today, what is the amount you should invest? (Show Necessary Calculation) 2. Suppose Pablo Escobar wants to accumulate the tuition fees for his master's in criminology program. He must pay the full amount of tuition fees at the beginning of his study in 2025. The tuition fee at the end of year 2022 is $25,000, which will increase by 3% at the end of every year. Pablo will start working from January 2023 for another two years before commencing his master's in criminology degree. If he saves $9,000 and $12,500 respectively in two years and gets 12% on his savings, and his father gives him $4,500 before commencing his study, will he be able to pay the full amount of his masters by himself? (Show Necessary Calculation) 3. Mr. & Mrs. Pribel wish to purchase a boat in 8 years when they retire. They are planning to purchase the boat using proceeds from the sale of their property, which is currently worth $90,000 and its value is growing at 7 percent a year. The boat is currently worth $200,000, increasing at 5 percent per year. In addition to the value of their property, how much additional money should they deposit at the end of each year in an account paying 9 percent annual interest in order to be able to buy the boat upon retirement?
