I will attach solutions to some of the Questions but with different values. All you need is to redo them using new values. Pretty simple work

Question 1

Now that they have accumulated a deposit of $40,000 Ed and his partner Susie wish to use the deposit and take out a housing loan to purchase a home. The house costs $725,000. The loan is to be repaid in equal monthly instalments over a term of 25 years.  The interest rate quoted by the bank is an annual effective rate of 5.5%.  Ed has misplaced the paperwork showing the annual nominal rate (j₁₂). Interest is added monthly.

         i.            How much is the monthly repayment?

       ii.            How much interest will be paid in the fifth year?

     iii.            How much do Ed and Susie owe the bank immediately before making the 160^th repayment?

     iv.            Provide Ed and Susie with a repayment schedule using excel.

Question 2

Question 3

Stanley has just been advised of a bequest of a lump sum of 111,500 from his Aunt’s will, but it is not due to be available for him for sixteen years (at t = 16 he will receive 111500). Stanley wants to receive some cash earlier than this. He is investigating the purchase of a deferred annuity with the first annual cash flow of the annuity is to be paid at the beginning of year 2 (fifteen cash flows).  Assume that the annuity and the lump sum are of equivalent risk and that j₁₂ = 6.24% pa is the appropriate interest rate (opportunity cost of funds for Stanley). How much is the annual cash flow associated with the annuity?

Question 9

You wish to insure your Ferrari.  Mooncorp Insurance has quoted you an annual premium to insure your car of $12915. You are offered a 10% discount if you pay the lump sum immediately.

What is the effective annual opportunity cost of paying monthly?

You must provide one complete manual trial calculation of the IRR to demonstrate that you understand the process. Also provide an explanation of this opportunity cost. Failure to follow this instruction will attract a mark of zero.
