Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: A) Keep in mind that the future price in 15 years is zero so that any discounted value is also zero. Thus, we are only concerned with the present value of the annuity from the 2.10 dividend. For this annuity, with r = 10 and n = 15, we get PVIFA = 7.60608, giving the present value of a share = P= 2.10  7.60608 = 15.973 or about 15.97.
MODE = END
INPUT 15 10 ? -2.1 0
KEY N I/Y PV PMT FV
CPT 15.97

Answer to Question 2

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
