Jason W. bought a Mercedes when he came to UTM as an engineering student. The Mercedes was purchased by taking a loan that was to be paid off in 20 equal, quarterly payments. The interest rate on the loan was 12%. Four years later, after Jason made his 16th payment, he got married (no more dating!) and sold the Mercedes to his buddy Houston S. Houston made arrangements with Jason's bank to refinance the loan and to pay Jason's unpaid balance by making 16 equal, quarterly payments at the same interest rate that Jason was paying. Houston flunked out of UTM (too many dates!) 3¼ years later, after having made his 13th payment; he then sold the car to Jeff M. Jeff paid the bank $2000 cash (he had a good summer job!) to pay the loan balance. How much had Jason borrowed to buy the new Mercedes?

Starting on July 1, 2000, Peter borrows $7,600.00$7,600.00 each year for 4 years from his dear Aunt May to pay for college. (Note: the last date that he borrows money is July 1, 2003.) From the beginning, Aunt May agreed to defer all interest on the loans until Peter finds a job; i.e. Peter's loans will not accumulate any interest until the first day he starts working. After that, Peter will be charged 8.8 percent compounded semiannually, and he will pay Aunt May back with 14 equal semiannual payments, the first coming 6 months after he starts his job. Peter finds a job as a photographer for a local newspaper, and his first day of work is July 1, 2004. For tax reasons, Peter needs to compute the total amount of interest that he will pay to Aunt May in the year 2007. How much in interest did Peter actually pay in 2007?

As soon as she graduated from college, Kay began planning for her retirement. Her plans were to deposit $500 semiannually into an IRA (a retirement fund) beginning six months after graduation and continuing until the day she retired, which she expected to be 30 years later. Today is the day Kay retires. She just made the last $500 deposit into her retirement fund, and now she wants to know how much she has accumulated for her retirement. The fund earned 10 percent compounded semiannually since it was established. a. Compute the balance of the retirement fund assuming all the payments were made on time. b. Although Kay was able to make all of the $500 deposits she planned, 10 years ago she had to withdraw $10,000 from the fund to pay some medical bills incurred by her mother. Compute the balance in the retirement fund based on this information.
