Her tuition and books at college cost $6,000 and her living expenses are $15,000 per year. Savings are deposited at the end of the year they are earned and receive (compound) interest at the end of each subsequent year. Similarly, the loans are taken out at the end of the year in which they are needed, and interest does not accrue until the end of the subsequent year. Now that the interest rate has risen, should Joanne go to college or go to work?arrow_forward
- 5. Suppose after you graduate from Algoma University, you find a job that pays you $75,000 a year. Further suppose that you take out a home equity loan of $360,000 for 30 years at an annual interest rate of 3.5 percent, with payments to be made monthly. What will your monthly payments be? If the interest rate increases from 3.5 percent to 5.0 percent, how much will your monthly payments increase?

Calculate it’s present value (PV) given the 54-month interest rate is currently 4%, with a volatility of 120 basis points (bps). Explain, using equations with properly-defined mathematical notation, how to map this cash flow to vertices at 4 years and 5 years, in such a way that the volatility of the present value of the mapped cash flow remains at 120 bps. Suppose the 4-year rate has a volatility of 110 bps and the 5-year rate has a volatility of 150 bps, and their correlation is 0.9. How much should be mapped to each vertex. Give your answer in PV terms and round your answers to whole $ values.arrow_forward
