ln(e)

t = -τ × ln

because ln(e) = 1

Plugging the values in the above equation, we get: t = -8267 × ln ⇒ t = -8267 × -1.253 ⇒ t = 10357 Age of the artefact is 10,357 years Diff: 3 Type: SA Page Ref: 63-69 Topic: 2.4 Logarithms - Basic Aspects Objective: 2-4: Write exponential equations in logarithmic form and use an electronic calculator equipped with a natural logarithm function to determine the value of natural logarithms.

What is the maximum weight of pineapple that he can put in the mix in order to have an effective wholesale cost no greater than $2.00 per kg? Answer: Cost of 2 kg of strawberries = $1.50 × 2 = $3.00 Cost of 3 kg of grapes = $2.15 × 3 = $6.45 Total cost of the mixed fruit = $2 × 10 = $20 Cost of pineapple and melons = $20 - ($3 + $6.45) = $10.55 ⇒ 2.5p + 1.85m = 10.55 Maximum weight of pineapple and melons = 10 - (2 + 3) = 5kg ∴ 2.5p + 1.85(5-p) = 10.55 ⇒ 0.65p + 9.25 = 10.55 ⇒ p=

After he was done shopping, he had $400 left in his account. Carlos's expenditure on doll sets was $100 less than four times the amount he spent on toy cars. How much money did Carlos spend on doll sets? Answer: Let x represent Carlos's expenditure on toy cars. Consequently, the expenditure on doll sets can be represented with the expression 4x - 100. Since Carlos started with $1300 and was left with $400, we can assume he spent $900 at the mall.

142) A court ruled in favour of Professor Dumbledore. Professor Dumbledore successfully claimed that that Professor Umbridge defaulted on two payments of 1000 galleons each. One payment was due 18 months ago and the other 11 months ago. What is the appropriate amount for the court to order Umbridge to pay immediately if the court uses 6% compounded monthly for the interest rate money can earn? Answer: i =

The interest rate on the $40 million face value is 9.6% compounded quarterly. Before the maturity date, the original lender sold the contract to a pension fund for $43 million. The sale price was based on a discount rate of 8.5% compounded semi-annually from the date of sale. How many months before the maturity date did the sale take place? Answer: The selling price represents the present value of the loan's maturity value on the date of sale. Therefore, the solution requires two steps: (1) calculate the maturity value of the debt; (2) determine the length of time over which the maturity value was discounted to give a present value of $43 million. n = 4 × 2 = 8 and i =

= 2.4%

FV = $40 (1.024)8 = $48.357 million For discounting the maturity value, i =

61) Li bought a house in Whitby for $305 000 5 years ago. He made a down payment of $46 000 and financed the house through Scotia Bank with a mortgage amortized over 25 years. Interest for the first 5 years was 4.4% compounded semi-annually and payments were made monthly. At the end of the 5 year term, Li has renewed the mortgage for another 5 years, at 3.7% compounded semi-annually. What is the monthly payment for the second term? Answer: First calculate the balance at the end of the first 5 year term. This requires calculating the FV of the payments made in first 5 years and the future value of the original loan.

122) Li bought a house in Whitby for $305 000 5 years ago. He financed the house through Scotia Bank with a mortgage of $259 000 amortized over 25 years. Interest for the first 5 years was 4.4% compounded semi-annually and payments were made monthly. At the end of the 5 year term, Li has renewed the mortgage for another 5 years, at 3.7% compounded semi-annually. What is the monthly payment for the second term? Answer: First calculate the balance at the end of the first 5 year term. This requires calculating the FV of the payments made in first 5 years and the future value of the original loan. PV = $259 000; n = 12 × 25 = 300;

- 1 = 0.0036335

PMT for original term =

= $94 950

FV of the original loan at the end of 5 year term = 259000 × 1.003633560 = $321 965 Balance = $321 965 - $94 950 = $227 015 Balance is the PV for the second term For second term PV = $227015;

Net return per unit is $4.10. To produce the component, the company must buy a machine costing $245 000 with a life of six years and a salvage value of $47 000 after six years. The company estimates that repair costs will be $18 000 per year during Years 2 to 6. If Big Sky company requires a return on investment of 15.5%, should it market the component?

If the leased water heater can be bought after 10 years for $80, should Molly buy or lease the water heater, if money is compounded quarterly at 2.5%? Answer: Present value of cash payment for the water heater = $2200 For PMT = $30; n = 40; P/Y = 4; C/Y = 4; I/Y = 2.5%; i = 0.625% Present value of the service contract involves an ordinary annuity = $30

Present value of decision to buy the water heater = $3258.85 For PMT = $100;

n = 40;

i = 0.625%

Present value of the lease payment annuity due = $90 × 1.00625 ×

= $3196.39

Present value of the purchase price after 10 years = $80 × 1.00625-40 = $62.35 Present value for the decision to lease = $3258.74 Both options result into the same economic value, within the rounding error.

years or lease the car for 5 years making monthly payments of $269 at the beginning of each month. If money is worth 5% compounded annually, should Kevin buy or lease? Answer: Present value of the salvage price = $6500 × 1.05-5 = $5092.92 Net present value if Kevin decides to buy = $19 900 - $5092.92 = $14 807.08 For monthly lease: PMT = $269;

PV for lease is smaller than PV to buy. Therefore Kevin should lease the Honda Civic.

61) If Ontario decides to build two new units of nuclear power plants, the overnight cost of construction is $15 billion. The annual net rate of return from the two units is $1 billion every year for the next 60 years, at which time the plants should be decommissioned and have a residual value of $0.96 billion. Should Ontario decide to build the two units of nuclear power plants if the required rate of return is 7%? Answer: PMT = $1 billion; n = 60; i = 7% PVIN = $1

= $14.04 billion

PVOUT = $15 billion - $0.96 billion = $14.9834329 billion NPV = $14.04 - $14.9834329 billion = -$0.94 billion Since NPV is negative, Ontario should not build the two units of nuclear power plants.
