Finance Assuming we have the following immediate interest rates in the market: 1M - 2.5%, 2M - 2.8%, 3M - 3%, calculate the FRA 1v2 rate. Assume that each month has 30 days and a year has 360 days. If the investor has purchased this contract at the FRA rate calculated above and the interest rate in the market at the time the contract is settled is 3.2%, then in which direction the settlement flows (between the buyer and seller of the contract)?

An advertisement of an investment firm states that if you invest P500 in their firm today you will get P1,000 at the end of 4,5 years. What nominal rate is implied if interest is compounded quarterly? Determine also the effective rate of interest.
Consider a future value of $2,000, 8 years in the future. Assume that the nominal interest rate is 18.00%. Assume that there is semiannual compounding. Entering PMT=0 and a FV=$2,000 into a financial calculator, along with the appropriate periodic interest rate and value of N, yields a present value of approximately $ with semiannual compounding. Assume that there is quarterly compounding. Entering PMT=0 and a FV=$2,000 into a financial calculator, along with the appropriate periodic interest rate and value of N, yields a present value of approximately $ with quarterly compounding. Suppose now that the cash flow of $2,000 occurs only 1 year in the future. Assume that there is monthly compounding. Entering PMT=0 and a FV=$2,000 into a financial calculator, along with the appropriate periodic interest rate and value of N, yields a present value of approximately $ with monthly compounding.
