Question 2

To buy his favorite car, Larry is planning to accumulate money by investing his Christmas bonuses for the next five years in a security which pays a 10 percent annual rate of return.

The car will cost 20,000 at the end of the fifth year and Larry's Christmas bonus is 3,000 a year. Will Larry accumulate enough money to buy the car?

Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Using financial calculator: PV=0, N=5, PMT=3000, I = 10, CPT FV = 18,315
Larry will not have enough money to buy the car. He should either invest more money or deposit his christmas bonuses in a security paying a higher rate of return.
