1. A loan is offered with monthly payments and a 11.50 percent APR. What’s the loan’s effective annual rate (EAR)? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)
2. What is the present value of a $3,000 deposit in year 1 and another $3,500 deposit at the end of year 5 if interest rates are 6 percent?
3. Compute the future value of $1,000 at a 6 percent interest rate after two different lengths of time. Use 6 and 10 years into the future.
