2 McGILL UNIVERSITY FACULTY OF SCIENCE FINAL EXAMINATION MATH THEORY OF INTEREST EXAMINER: Professor W. G. Brown DATE: Thursday, Aprl 21st, 2005 ASSOCIATE EXAMINER: Prof. N. Sancho TIME: 14:00 17:00 hours SURNAME: MR, MISS, MS, MRS, &c.: GIVEN NAMES: STUDENT NUMBER: 1. Fll n the above clearly. Instructons 2. Do not tear pages from ths book; all your wrtng even rough work must be handed n. 3. Calculators. Whle you are permtted to use a calculator to perform arthmetc and/or exponental calculatons, you must not use the calculator to calculate such actuaral functons as a n, s n, (Ia) n, (Is) n, (Da) n, (Ds) n, etc. wthout frst statng a formula for the value of the functon n terms of exponentals and/or polynomals nvolvng n and the nterest rate. You must not use your calculator n any programmed calculatons. If your calculator has memores, you are expected to have cleared them before the examnaton. 4. Ths examnaton booklet conssts of ths cover, Pages 1 through 7 contanng questons; and Pages 8 and 9, whch are blank. For all problems you are expected to show all your work, and to smplfy algebrac and numercal answers as much as you can. All solutons are to be wrtten n the space provded on the page where the queston s prnted. When that space s exhausted, you may wrte on the facng page. Any soluton may be contnued on the last pages, or the back cover of the booklet, but you must ndcate any contnuaton clearly at the bottom of the page where the queston s prnted!

3 Fnal Examnaton MATH Showng your work n detal, determne each of the followng; the rates you determne should be accurate to 4 decmal places, or as a percentage accurate to 2 decmal places. (a) [2 MARKS] The nomnal annual nterest rate, compounded quarterly, correspondng to an effectve annual nterest rate of 8%. (b) [2 MARKS] The effectve annual nterest rate correspondng to a nomnal dscount rate, compounded monthly, of 6%. (c) [3 MARKS] The effectve sem-annual nterest rate correspondng to a force of nterest of δ = (d) [3 MARKS] d ( 1 2), correspondng to a nomnal annual nterest rate, compounded every 2 months, of 12%.
4 Fnal Examnaton MATH Showng all your work, determne for each of the followng sequences of payments, the value as of the gven tme and for the gven nterest or dscount rate. (a) [3 MARKS] The value as of one year ago of 30 payments of 1 at the end of every half-year, the frst to be pad 18 months from now, at a nomnal nterest rate of 9% compounded sem-annually. (b) [3 MARKS] The value now of 24 payments of 1 at the end of every 3 months, the frst to be pad one year from now, at an effectve annual nterest rate of 9%. (c) [4 MARKS] The value exactly 5 years from now of a perpetuty consstng of an unendng sequence of payments of 1 at ntervals of one year, the frst to be pad n 6 months from now, at a nomnal annual nterest rate of 4% compounded every 4 months.
5 Fnal Examnaton MATH [5 MARKS] Gve a formula n terms of alone, for the value of the followng, showng all your work:. An annuty at an effectve semannual nterest rate of, of 100 now, 97 sx months from now, 94 one year from now, the payments decreasng by a constant amount untl a fnal payment of 34. Table 1: Several Useful Formulæ that you were not expected to memorze You may wsh to make use of some of the followng formulæ, but remember that your fnal answers for ths problem must be expressed n terms of alone. (Ia) n = än nv n (Is) n = s n n (Is) n = s n+1 (n+1) (Ia) = ä (Da) n = n a n (Ds) n = n(1+)n s n
6 Fnal Examnaton MATH The purchase of a new condomnum s partally fnanced by a mortgage of 120,000 payable to the vendor; the mortgage s amortzed over 25 years, wth a level payment at the end of each month, at a nomnal annual rate of 6% compounded monthly.

Determne the prce P that Z pays, and construct the frst 3 and last 3 lnes of an amortzaton table for the 60 payments showng, under the followng headngs, how Z s recoverng her nvestment, under the followng headngs: Payment Payment Interest Prncpal Outstandng Number Amount at new rate Repad Loan Balance 0 P
9 Fnal Examnaton MATH Consder a 10,000 par-value 10-year bond wth sem-annual coupons payng nterest at 5% compounded semannually. Suppose that the bond can be redeemed for 11,000 at the tme of ether of the 16th or 17th coupons, at 10,500 at the tme of the 18th or 19th coupons, or can be held untl maturty, at the tme of the 20th coupon, where t matures wthout premum. (a) [5 MARKS] What prce should an nvestor pay n order to be certan of a yeld rate of 6% compounded semannually? (b) [5 MARKS] What prce should an nvestor pay n order to be certan of a yeld rate of 4% compounded semannually?
