If you wish to acculate 197000 in 5 years how much must you deposit today in an acccount that pays a quoted annual interest rate of 13% with semi-annual compounding interest?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$104,947.03

Explanation:

We know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + rate)^number of years

$197,000 = Present value × (1 + 0.065)^10

$197,000 = Present value × (1.065)^10

$197,000 =  Present value × 1.8771374653

So, present value would be

= $104,947.03

In case of semi-annual, the interest rate is divided by two and the time period is doubles and we did the same in the above calculation.

The present value is the value of future money in the context of the current date. It is the worth of future money taking into consideration the time value of money.

The deopsit value of $197,000 today is $104,947.03.

Computation:

Given,

Future value =$197,000

Rate of interest = 13%

compounding period= semi-annually= 2

number of years= 5

The formula of Future value will be sued to determine the present value of the deposit.

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Future Value}&=\text{Present Value}\times\left(1+\frac{\text{rate of return}}{\text{compounding period}} \right )^{\text{no. of years}\times\text{compounding period}}\\\$197,000&=\text{PV}\times\left(1+\frac{0.13}{2} \right )^{5\times2}\\\$197,000&=\text{PV}\times1.877\\\frac{\$197,000}{1.877}&=\text{PV}\\\$104,947.03&=\text{PV} \end{aligned}[/tex]
