Problem 12.1
In return for payments of $5,000 at the end of 3 years and $4,000 at the
end of 9 years, an investor agrees to pay $1500 immediately and to make an additional payment at the end of 2 years. Find the amount of the additional payment if .

Solution.

Problem 12.2
At a certain interest rate the present values of the following two payment
patterns are equal:
(i) 200 at the end of 5 years plus 500 at the end of 10 years;
(ii) 400.94 at the end of 5 years.
At the same interest rate 100 invested now plus 120 invested at the end of 5 years will accumulate to P at the end of 10 years. Calculate P.

Problem 12.5
Fund A accumulates at 6% effective, and Fund B accumulates at 8% effective. At the end of 20 years the total of the two funds is 2,000. At the end of 10 years the amount in Fund A is half that in Fund B. What is the total of the two funds at the end of 5 years?

Solution.

Problem 12.6
Louis has an obligation to pay a sum of $3,000 in four years from now and a sum of $5,000 in six years from now.
