15.93%
21.00%
5.08%
18.38%

Answer(s): E

Explanation:

On the BAII Plus, press 24 N, 650 PV, 33 +/- PMT, 0 FV, CPT I/Y. Then press x 12 = to see the answer. On the HP12C, press 24 n, 650 PV, 33 CHS PMT, 0 FV, i. Then press 12 x to see the answer. The last multiplication by 12 is needed since the calculator returns the periodic interest rate. Make sure the BAII Plus has the P/Y value set to 1.

QUESTION: 904

Suppose you were given $4,000 today and deposited it into an account paying 8% per year, compounded monthly. If you know that you will need $5,000 in the account 6 years from now, what monthly withdrawal can you make from the account, beginning one month from now, that will leave the account with exactly $5,000 in it in 6 years?

$204.45
$15.80
Can't be done
$123.45
$1.23

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

On the BAII Plus, press 72 N, 8 divide 12 = I/Y, 4000 PV, 5000 +/- FV, CPT PMT. On the HP12C, press 72 n, 8 ENTER 12 divide i, 4000 PV, 5000 CHS FV, PMT. Note that the answer is a negative number. This is because it is a withdrawal from the account balance, just as the $5,000 is. It is a very small value because most of the $4,000 is needed to ensure there is $5,000 in the account in 6 years! Make sure the BAII Plus has the value of P/Y set to 1.
