Factors: How Time and Interest Affect Money
Determination of F, P and A
2.1 (1) (F/P, 10%, 7) = 1.9487
2.2 F = 1,200,000(F/P,7%,4)
2.3 F = 200,000(F/P,10%,3)
2.4 P = 7(120,000)(P/F,10%,2)
2.5 F = 100,000,000/30(F/A,10%,30)
2.6 P = 25,000(P/F,10%,8)
2.7 P = 8000(P/A,10%,10)
2.8 P = 100,000((P/A,12%,2)
2.9 F = 12,000(F/A,10%,30)
2.10 A = 50,000,000(A/F,20%,3)
2.11 F = 150,000(F/P,18%,5)
2.12 P = 75(P/F,18%,2)
2.13 A = 450,000(A/P,10%,3)
2.14 P = 30,000,000(P/F,10%,5) – 15,000,000
2.15 F = 280,000(F/P,12%,2)
2.16 F = (200 – 90)(F/A,10%,8)
2.17 F = 125,000(F/A,10%,4)
2.19 P = 90,000(P/A,20%,3)
2.20 A = 250,000(A/F,9%,5)
2.22 P = (110,000* 0.3)(P/A,12%,4)
Factor Values
2.25 (a) 1. Interpolate between i = 8% and i = 9% at n = 15:
(P/F,8.4%,15) = 0.3152 – 0.0163

917,910,000 = 100,000,000(P/A,18%,5) + G(P/G,18%,5)
917,910,000 = 100,000,000(3.1272) + G(5.2312)
G = $115,688,561
2.37 95,000 = 55,000 + G(A/G,10%,5)
2.38 P in year 0 = 500,000(P/F,10%,10)

Interest Rate and Rate of Return
2.47 1,000,000 = 290,000(P/A,i,5)
2.48 50,000 = 10,000(F/P,i,17)
2.49 F = A(F/A,i%,5)
2.50 Bonus/year = 6(3000)/0.05 = $360,000
2.51 Set future values equal to each other
Simple: F = P + Pni
2.52 100,000 = 190,325(P/F,i,30)
2.53 400,000 = 320,000 + 50,000(A/G,i,5)

(c) The reduction is impressive from forever (n is infinity) to n = 22.5 years for a 50%
annually when a fixed amount and a specific rate of return are involved.
2.56 10A = A(F/A,10%,n)
2.57 (a) 500,000 = 85,000(P/A,10%,n)
