1) Dewey Cheatam invests $3,500 at the beginning of each quarter for 10 years at a rate of 11% compounded daily. What is the future value of Dewey's investment?

N= 40

I%= 11

PV= 0

PMT= -3500

FV=0

P/Y=4

C/Y=365

PMT: END/BEGIN

USING MY TI-83 TO SOVLE FOR FV I HIT ALPHA THEN ENTER THE FV VALUE OF Dewey’s investment in 10 years is $258,573.23

2) In 6 years and 3 months, the firm of Dewey, Cheatam and Howe will have to repay a $70,000 bond they have recently issued. Assume a 7 3/4% rate of interest compounded semi-annually. How much are they going to be paying each quarter to be able to have the sum of $70,000 at the end of the 6 Year 3-monthterms?

N= 25

I%= 7.75

PV=0

PMT=?

FV=70000

P/Y=4

N= 10

I%= 5.25

PV= 0

PMT= 25,000

FV= 0

P/Y=1

C/Y=365

Present value would be for alex retiring fund is $189,440.18
