Finding the Value of an Annuity and Interest Earned
Roman Rodriguez's employer will match his contributions into a retirement plan up to 5% of his $32,000 annual salary. In other words, the employer will put $1 into his retirement plan for every $1 Rodriguez puts into his retirement plan up to the limit. Find the future amount in 8 years if every quarter he contributes the maximum allowed assuming (a) funds earn 4% compounded quarterly and (b) funds earn 8% compounded quarterly. (c) Then find the difference between the two.
CASE IN POINT
SOLUTION
Salary per quater = $32,000 ÷ 4 = $8000
(a) Interest of
is earned per quarter for 8 × 4 = 32 quarters. Look across the top of the table for 1% and down the side for 32 periods to find 37.49407.
Amount = $800 × 37.49407 = $29,995.26 (rounded)
(b) Interest of
is earned per quarter for 8 × 4 = 32 quarters. Look across the top of the table for 2% and down the side for 32 periods to find 44.22703.
Amount = $800 × 44.22703 = $35,381.62 (rounded)
(c) Difference = $35,381.62 ? $30,295.21 = $5086.41
Finding the Amount of an Annuity and Interest Earned
At the birth of her grandson, Junella Smith commits to help pay for his college education. She decides to make deposits of $600 at the end of each 6 months into an account for 17 years. Find the amount of the annuity and the interest earned, assuming 6% compounded semiannually.
SOLUTION
Interest of
is earned each semiannual period. There are 17 × 2 = 34 semiannual periods in 17 years. Find 3% across the top and 34 periods down the side of the table for 57.73018.
Amount = $600 × 57.73018 = $ 34,638.11
Interest = $34,638.11 ? ( 34 × $600) = $14,238.11 (rounded)
Smith knows that a college education will cost a lot more in 17 years than it does now, but she also knows that $34,638.11 will be of great help to her grandson.
Financial Calculator solution
In this example, payment ($600), interest rate per compounding period (3,), and number of compounding periods (34) are known. Future value is the unknown. Enter the payment as a negative number since it is an outflow of cash that Junella Smith pays each month. Finally, press the
key to find the future value, which is a positive value since it will be an inflow of cash to her grandson.

Find the amount of this annuities due rounded to the nearest cent. Find the total interest earned. (See Example.)
Finding the Amount of an Annuity Due
Quick TIP
For an annuity due, be sure to add 1 period to the number of compounding periods and subtract 1 payment from the amount calculated.
Mr. and Mrs. Thompson set up an investment program using an annuity due with payments of $500 at the beginning of each quarter. Find (a) the amount of the annuity and (b) the interest if they make payments for 7 years into an investment expected to pay 8% compounded quarterly.
SOLUTION
(a) Step 1 Interest of
is earned each quarter. There are 7 × 4 = 28 periods in 7 years. Since it is an annuity due, add 1 period to 28, making 29 periods.
Step 2 Look across the top of the table for 2% and down the side for 29 periods to find 38.79223.
$500 × 38.79223 = $19,396.12 (rounded)
Step 3 Now subtract one payment to find the amount of the annuity due.
Amount of annuity due = $19,396.12 ? $ 500 = $18,896.12
(b) Subtract the 28 payments (7 years × 4 payments per year) of $500 each to find the interest.
Interest = $18,896.12 ? 1 28 × $500 2 = $ 4896.12
The calculator solution to finding the interest in part (b) follows.

Find the amount of this annuities due rounded to the nearest cent. Find the total interest earned. (See Example.) Describe the differences between an IRA, a 401(k), and a 403(b). (See Objective.)
Finding the Amount of an Annuity Due
Quick TIP
For an annuity due, be sure to add 1 period to the number of compounding periods and subtract 1 payment from the amount calculated.
Mr. and Mrs. Thompson set up an investment program using an annuity due with payments of $500 at the beginning of each quarter. Find (a) the amount of the annuity and (b) the interest if they make payments for 7 years into an investment expected to pay 8% compounded quarterly.
SOLUTION
(a) Step 1 Interest of
is earned each quarter. There are 7 × 4 = 28 periods in 7 years. Since it is an annuity due, add 1 period to 28, making 29 periods.
Step 2 Look across the top of the table for 2% and down the side for 29 periods to find 38.79223.
$500 × 38.79223 = $19,396.12 (rounded)
Step 3 Now subtract one payment to find the amount of the annuity due.
Amount of annuity due = $19,396.12 ? $ 500 = $18,896.12
(b) Subtract the 28 payments (7 years × 4 payments per year) of $500 each to find the interest.
Interest = $18,896.12 ? 1 28 × $500 2 = $ 4896.12

Solve the following application problems.
T-BILL AND STOCK INVESTING Joann Gretz (see Example, page) decides to place half of her $2000 deposit at the end of each year into the bond fund and half into the stock fund. Assume the bond fund earns 6% compounded annually and the stock fund earns 10% compounded annually. Find the amount available in 33 years. ____________
Finding the Value of an IRA
At 27, Joann Gretz sets up an IRA with online broker Charles Schwab, where she plans to deposit $2000 at the end of each year until age 60. Find the amount of the annuity if she invests in (a) a bond fund that has historically yielded 6% compounded annually versus (b) a stock fund that has historically yielded 10% compounded annually. Assume that future yields equal historical yields.
SOLUTION
Age 60 is 60 ? 27 = 33 years away , so she will make deposits at the end of each year for 33 years.
(a) Bond fund: Look down the left column of the amount of an annuity table on page for 33 years and across the top for 6% to find 97.34316.
Amount = $2000 × 97.34316 = $194,686.32
(b) Stock fund: Look down the left column of the table for 33 years and across the top for 10, to find 222.25154.
Amount = $2000 × 222.25154 = $ 444,503.08
Quick TIP
Investments can be risky. For example, stocks usually increase in value over the long term, but they may go down as well.
The differences in the two investments are shown in the figure. Gretz wants the larger amount, but she is worried she might lose money in the stock fund. See Exercise 20 at the end of this section to find her investment choice.

Find the present value of this annuities. Round to the nearest cent. (See Examples.)
Finding the Present Value of an Annuity
At the end of each quarter for 5 years, the Daily News deposits $4325 in an account paying 6% compounded quarterly. The goal is to accumulate funds for a new printing press. ( a ) Use the concepts of Section to find the future value of the annuity. ( b ) Then find the lump sum (present value) that must be deposited today to accumulate the same future value.
SOLUTION
(a)
(or 1.5%) per quarter; 5 years × 4 = 20 quarters. Use the amount of an annuity table in Section to find 23.12367.
Future value = $4325 × 23.12367 = $ 100,009.87 (rounded)
(b) It is not necessary to use this future value to find the present value of the annuity. Instead, use the present value of an annuity table with 1.5, per period and 20 periods to find 17.16864.
Present value = $4325 × 17.16864 = $74,254.37
Thus, a deposit of $4325 at the end of every quarter for 5 years has a present value today of $74,254.37. If we assume 6% compounded quarterly and ignore income taxes, each of the following has exactly the same value:
1. 20 end-of-quarter deposits of $4325
2. A future value at the end of 5 years of $100,009.87
3. A present value on hand today of $74,254.37

Tom and Brandy Barrett recently divorced. The judge gave custody of their 4-year-old son to Brandy and ruled that Tom must pay $1500 in child support to Brandy at the end of each quarter until the son turns 16. Find the lump sum that Tom must put into an account earning 6% compounded quarterly to cover the periodic payments. Find the interest earned.
SOLUTION
Payments must be made for 16 - 4 = 12 years, or for 12 × 4 = 48 quarters. The interest rate per quarter is
per quarter. Look across the top of the present value of an annuity table for 1.5% and down the side for 48 payments to find 34.04255.
Present value of annuity = $1500 × 34.04255 = $ 51,063.83
A deposit of $51,063.83 today will make 48 end-of-quarter payments of $1500 each. Interest earned during the 12 years is the sum of all payments less the original lump sum.
Interest = (48 × $1500) - $51,063.83 = $20,936.17
Quick TIP
Although the $1500 withdrawals to Brandy are at the end of each quarter, the original lump sum must be deposited at the beginning of the first year.
Finding the Present Value
An American company hires a project manager to work in Saudi Arabia. The contract states that if the manager works there for 5 years, he will receive an extra benefit of $15,000 at the end of each semiannual period for the 8 years that follow. Find the lump sum that can be deposited today to satisfy the contract, assuming 6% compounded semiannually.
SOLUTION
The project manager works from years 1 to 5. He then receives two $15,000 annuity payments each year during years 6 through 13. Solve this problem in two steps.
1. Find the present value at the beginning of year 6 of the annuity with $15,000 payments.
Use
per compounding period and 8 × 2 = 16 compounding periods to find 12.56110 in the present value of an annuity table.
Present value of annuity = $15,000 × 12.56110 = $188,416.50
This is the present value of the annuity needed at the beginning of year 6 to fund payments in years 6 through 13. But it is also the future value needed for the investment made today that will fund the eventual payments.
2. Find the lump sum needed today to accumulate the $188,416.50 by the end of year 5.
Use the table showing present value of a dollar in Section (page) with
per compounding period and 5 × 2 = 10 compounding periods to find.74409.
Present value needed today = $188,416.50 ×.74409 = $ 140,198.83
A lump sum of $140,198.83 today will grow to $188,416.50 in 5 years. The $188,416.50 at the end of year 5 is enough to make 16 semiannual payments of $15,000 each during years 6 through 13.

Present value of annuity = $1500 × 34.04255 = $ 51,063.83
A deposit of $51,063.83 today will make 48 end-of-quarter payments of $1500 each. Interest earned during the 12 years is the sum of all payments less the original lump sum.
Interest = (48 × $1500) - $51,063.83 = $20,936.17
Quick TIP
Although the $1500 withdrawals to Brandy are at the end of each quarter, the original lump sum must be deposited at the beginning of the first year.
Finding the Present Value
An American company hires a project manager to work in Saudi Arabia. The contract states that if the manager works there for 5 years, he will receive an extra benefit of $15,000 at the end of each semiannual period for the 8 years that follow. Find the lump sum that can be deposited today to satisfy the contract, assuming 6% compounded semiannually.
SOLUTION
The project manager works from years 1 to 5. He then receives two $15,000 annuity payments each year during years 6 through 13. Solve this problem in two steps.
1. Find the present value at the beginning of year 6 of the annuity with $15,000 payments.
Use
per compounding period and 8 × 2 = 16 compounding periods to find 12.56110 in the present value of an annuity table.
Present value of annuity = $15,000 × 12.56110 = $188,416.50
This is the present value of the annuity needed at the beginning of year 6 to fund payments in years 6 through 13. But it is also the future value needed for the investment made today that will fund the eventual payments.
2. Find the lump sum needed today to accumulate the $188,416.50 by the end of year 5.
Use the table showing present value of a dollar in Section (page) with
per compounding period and 5 × 2 = 10 compounding periods to find.74409.
Present value needed today = $188,416.50 ×.74409 = $ 140,198.83
A lump sum of $140,198.83 today will grow to $188,416.50 in 5 years. The $188,416.50 at the end of year 5 is enough to make 16 semiannual payments of $15,000 each during years 6 through 13.

Finding the Present Value of an Annuity
At the end of each quarter for 5 years, the Daily News deposits $4325 in an account paying 6% compounded quarterly. The goal is to accumulate funds for a new printing press. ( a ) Use the concepts of Section to find the future value of the annuity. ( b ) Then find the lump sum (present value) that must be deposited today to accumulate the same future value.

SOLUTION
(a)

Future value = $4325 × 23.12367 = $ 100,009.87 (rounded)
(b) It is not necessary to use this future value to find the present value of the annuity. Instead, use the present value of an annuity table with 1.5, per period and 20 periods to find 17.16864.
Present value = $4325 × 17.16864 = $74,254.37
Thus, a deposit of $4325 at the end of every quarter for 5 years has a present value today of $74,254.37. If we assume 6% compounded quarterly and ignore income taxes, each of the following has exactly the same value:
1. 20 end-of-quarter deposits of $4325
2. A future value at the end of 5 years of $100,009.87
3. A present value on hand today of $74,254.37

Tom and Brandy Barrett recently divorced. The judge gave custody of their 4-year-old son to Brandy and ruled that Tom must pay $1500 in child support to Brandy at the end of each quarter until the son turns 16. Find the lump sum that Tom must put into an account earning 6% compounded quarterly to cover the periodic payments. Find the interest earned.
SOLUTION
Payments must be made for 16 - 4 = 12 years, or for 12 × 4 = 48 quarters. The interest rate per quarter is

Present value of annuity = $1500 × 34.04255 = $ 51,063.83
A deposit of $51,063.83 today will make 48 end-of-quarter payments of $1500 each. Interest earned during the 12 years is the sum of all payments less the original lump sum.
Interest = (48 × $1500) - $51,063.83 = $20,936.17

Find the amount of the payment needed to accumulate the indicated amount in a sinking fund. Round to the nearest cent. (See Examples.)
Finding Periodic Payments
Administrators at a community college have decided to build, in 5 years, a new sports complex with two indoor 50-meter swimming pools and a large gymnasium. The cost estimate is $16,500,000. They decide to make end-of-quarter deposits into a fund expected to earn 6% compounded quarterly. Find ( a ) the amount of each quarterly payment and ( b ) the interest earned.
CASE IN POINT
SOLUTION
(a) Use
per compounding period for 5 × 4 years = 20 compounding periods in the sinking fund table on page to find.04325.
Quarterly payment = $16,500,000 ×.04325 = $713,625
Twenty end-of-quarter payments of $713,625 at 6% compounded quarterly will grow to $16,501,629 using the table in Section.
(b) Interest is the future value minus the payments.
Interest = $16,501,629 ? 120 × $713,6252 = $ 2,229,129 (rounded)
Finding the Periodic Payments
First Christian Church sold $100,000 worth of bonds that must be paid off in 8 years. It now must set up a sinking fund to accumulate the necessary $100,000 to pay off the debt. Find the amount of each payment into a sinking fund if the payments are made at the end of each year and the fund earns 10% compounded annually. Find the amount of interest earned.
SOLUTION
Look along the top of the sinking fund table for 10% and down the side for 8 periods to find.08744.
Payment = $100,000 ×.08744 = $ 8744
The church must deposit $8744 at the end of each year for 8 years into an account paying 10% compounded annually to accumulate $100,000. The interest earned is the future value less all payments.
Interest = $100,000 ? (8 × $8744) = $ 30,048
Setting up a Sinking Fund Table
First Christian Church in Example deposited $8744 at the end of each year for 8 years into a sinking fund that earned 10% compounded annually. Set up a sinking fund table for these deposits. After each calculation, round each answer to the nearest cent before proceeding.
SOLUTION
The sinking fund account contains no money until the end of the first year, when a single deposit of $8744 is made. Since the deposit is made at the end of the year, no interest is earned.
At the end of the second year, the account contains the original $8744 plus the interest earned by this money. This interest is found by the formula for simple interest.
I = $8744 ×.10 × 1 = $874.40
An additional deposit is also made at the end of the second year, so that the sinking fund then contains the following total.
$8744 + $874.40 + $8744 = $18,362.40
Continue this work to get the following sinking fund table.
Quick TIP
Normally the last payment is adjusted as needed so that the future value exactly equals the desired amount. We assume this is true from this point forward.

Find the amount of the payment needed to accumulate the indicated amount in a sinking fund. Round to the nearest cent. (See Examples.)
Finding Periodic Payments
Administrators at a community college have decided to build, in 5 years, a new sports complex with two indoor 50-meter swimming pools and a large gymnasium. The cost estimate is $16,500,000. They decide to make end-of-quarter deposits into a fund expected to earn 6% compounded quarterly. Find ( a ) the amount of each quarterly payment and ( b ) the interest earned.
CASE IN POINT
SOLUTION
(a) Use
per compounding period for 5 × 4 years = 20 compounding periods in the sinking fund table on page to find.04325.
Quarterly payment = $16,500,000 ×.04325 = $713,625
Twenty end-of-quarter payments of $713,625 at 6% compounded quarterly will grow to $16,501,629 using the table in Section.
(b) Interest is the future value minus the payments.
Interest = $16,501,629 ? 120 × $713,6252 = $ 2,229,129 (rounded)
Finding the Periodic Payments
First Christian Church sold $100,000 worth of bonds that must be paid off in 8 years. It now must set up a sinking fund to accumulate the necessary $100,000 to pay off the debt. Find the amount of each payment into a sinking fund if the payments are made at the end of each year and the fund earns 10% compounded annually. Find the amount of interest earned.
SOLUTION
Look along the top of the sinking fund table for 10% and down the side for 8 periods to find.08744.
Payment = $100,000 ×.08744 = $ 8744
The church must deposit $8744 at the end of each year for 8 years into an account paying 10% compounded annually to accumulate $100,000. The interest earned is the future value less all payments.
Interest = $100,000 ? (8 × $8744) = $ 30,048
Setting up a Sinking Fund Table
First Christian Church in Example deposited $8744 at the end of each year for 8 years into a sinking fund that earned 10% compounded annually. Set up a sinking fund table for these deposits. After each calculation, round each answer to the nearest cent before proceeding.
SOLUTION
The sinking fund account contains no money until the end of the first year, when a single deposit of $8744 is made. Since the deposit is made at the end of the year, no interest is earned.
At the end of the second year, the account contains the original $8744 plus the interest earned by this money. This interest is found by the formula for simple interest.
I = $8744 ×.10 × 1 = $874.40
An additional deposit is also made at the end of the second year, so that the sinking fund then contains the following total.
$8744 + $874.40 + $8744 = $18,362.40
Continue this work to get the following sinking fund table.
Quick TIP
Normally the last payment is adjusted as needed so that the future value exactly equals the desired amount. We assume this is true from this point forward.

The church must deposit $8744 at the end of each year for 8 years into an account paying 10% compounded annually to accumulate $100,000. The interest earned is the future value less all payments.
Interest = $100,000 ? (8 × $8744) = $ 30,048
Setting up a Sinking Fund Table
First Christian Church in Example deposited $8744 at the end of each year for 8 years into a sinking fund that earned 10% compounded annually. Set up a sinking fund table for these deposits. After each calculation, round each answer to the nearest cent before proceeding.
SOLUTION
The sinking fund account contains no money until the end of the first year, when a single deposit of $8744 is made. Since the deposit is made at the end of the year, no interest is earned.
At the end of the second year, the account contains the original $8744 plus the interest earned by this money. This interest is found by the formula for simple interest.
I = $8744 ×.10 × 1 = $874.40
An additional deposit is also made at the end of the second year, so that the sinking fund then contains the following total.
$8744 + $874.40 + $8744 = $18,362.40
Continue this work to get the following sinking fund table.
Quick TIP
Normally the last payment is adjusted as needed so that the future value exactly equals the desired amount. We assume this is true from this point forward.

Finding Periodic Payments
Administrators at a community college have decided to build, in 5 years, a new sports complex with two indoor 50-meter swimming pools and a large gymnasium. The cost estimate is $16,500,000. They decide to make end-of-quarter deposits into a fund expected to earn 6% compounded quarterly. Find ( a ) the amount of each quarterly payment and ( b ) the interest earned.
CASE IN POINT
SOLUTION
(a) Use

Quarterly payment = $16,500,000 ×.04325 = $713,625
Twenty end-of-quarter payments of $713,625 at 6% compounded quarterly will grow to $16,501,629 using the table in Section.
(b) Interest is the future value minus the payments.
Interest = $16,501,629 ? 120 × $713,6252 = $ 2,229,129 (rounded)

Finding the Periodic Payments
First Christian Church sold $100,000 worth of bonds that must be paid off in 8 years. It now must set up a sinking fund to accumulate the necessary $100,000 to pay off the debt. Find the amount of each payment into a sinking fund if the payments are made at the end of each year and the fund earns 10% compounded annually. Find the amount of interest earned.
