Suppose you invest $50 each month (starting today) into a mutual fund.  You reinvest distributions.  At the end of 5 years, you sell all your shares and receive $3,485.  Calculate your rate of return.

The value in pounds of a fund at time t = 0 is V0 = 50, 000. After one year (at t = 1) it has increased to V1 = 51, 500 and at that time £1, 500 is withdrawn. After two years (at t = 2) the fund is worth V2 = 50, 800. (a) Compute the time-weighted rate of return. (b) If the fund is liquidated after two years what is the yield that has been achieved?

For the following levered total cash flow returns, what is the levered NPV, and should you pursue the investment if your levered discount rate is 14%?

1. A pension fund portfolio begins with $500,000 and earns 15% the first year and 10% the second year. At the beginning of the second year, the sponsor contributes another $500,000. What were the time-weighted and dollar-weighted rates of return?

Suppose you invest $5,000 into a mutual fund that is expected to earn a rate of return of 7%. The amount of money you will have in 10 years is closest to which of the following? The amount you will have in 25Lyears is closest to which of the following? O 1) $53,500; $802,500 O 2) $2,552.56; $3,257.79 O 3) $9,835.76; $27,137.16 O 4) $3,138; $ 1,311,892 5) None of the answers are correct

High Growth Fund has a front load of 5% and expected return of 14.5%. Normal Fund has no load. And expected return of 13.8%. Which fund would you hold if you expect to hold the fund for 5 years? How about holding the fund for 10 years? Please show how to solve in excel

What would be your future account value if you invested $175 each month into a growth mutual fund for 20 years? Assume an average annual rate of return of 13 percent. O $212,675.99 O $246,485.08 O $186,476.36 O $198,317.41
