Explanation / Answer

Ans 1)

If $1000 invested in deposit with interest rate of 4.25% then interest earned will be calculated as below

1000(1.0425)-1000=$42.5

Option A is correct

Ans 3)

Rate of Return-(End Amount-Begining Amount)/Begining Amount)*100=(3200-3000)/3000*100=6.67%

Approximately 7%

then option C is correct

Ans 2)

Interest Component if Compounding for 4 years 2000(1.09)^4-2000=823.16

Interest Component if Simple for 4 years 2000(1+4(9%))-2000=720

Difference is 823.16-720=103.16 hence 103 approximaltely

Option b is correct

Ans 4)

X/(1.08)+X/(1.08)^2+X/(1.08)^3+X/(1.08)^4+X/(1.08)^5+X/(1.08)^6=8000

X*4.623=8000

X=8000/4.623

Ans 5)

PW of Bouns for 6 years=700/1.06+750/1.06^2+800/1.06^3+850/1.06^4+900/1.06^5+950/1.06^6=$4015.09

Option D Is correct

Ans 6)

(3500/1.12)+(3500(1.1)/1.12^2)+(3500(1.1)^2/1.12^3)=$9208.6 That is approximtely $9200

Option A is correct

..(please check for ans 4 i am not sure about the options given they seem to be incorrect)
