问题如下:
Clark opens two bank accounts. Account 1 is compounded quarterly with stated annual rate of 3%, while Account 2 is compounded annually with annual interest rate of 2.5%. Clark put the principal of $30,000 to Account 2 and annual interest to Account 1 as long as he received. After three years, what is the difference between Clark’s current wealth planning and leaving all the money in Account 2?
选项:
A.$13.50
B.$12.24
C.$16.12
解释:
B is correct.
Annual interest received from Account 2 is $30,000*2.5%=$750.
After three years, Clark’s current wealth planning:
Leave all the money in Account 2: $30,000*(1+2.5%)3=$32306.71
The difference is $32318.95-$32306.71=12.24
我想到了,应该保持期数和利率的一致性,但我是按照每个季度的利率,把PMT 、N、I/Y 都转化成了季度
PMT = 750/4 = 187.5
N = 3*4 = 12
I/Y = 3%/4
PV = 0
求FV
我不太理解 什么时候应该转换成年,什么时候又是季度展示
