Total paid = 40,000(3) + 400,000 = $520,000 Plan 2: Total due after3 years = 400,000(1 + 0.10)3 = $532,400 Difference paid = 532,400 – 520,000 = $12,400 1.28 (a) FV(i%,n,A,P) finds the future value, F (b) IRR(first_cell:last_cell) finds the compound interest rate, i (c) PMT(i%,n,P,F) finds the equal periodic payment, A (d) PV(i%,n,A,F) finds the present value, P. 1.31 For built-in Excel functions, a parameter that does not apply can be left blank when it is notan interior one. For example, if there is no F involved when using the PMT function to solve a particular problem, it can be left blank because it is an end function. When the function involved is an interior one (like P in the PMT function), a comma must be put in its position. 1.34 Highest to lowest rate of return is as follows: Credit card, bank loan to new business, corporate bond,government bond, interest on checking account 1.37 End of period convention means that the cash flows are assumed to have occurred at the end of the period in which they took place. 1.40 The cash flow diagram is:
