1.Jim deposits $2000 in an account with an APR of 1.77% interest compounded daily and wants to know what the balance will be in 10 years. Use Excel to determine how much will Jim have in the account in 10 years? (Use 365 days in 1 year.)
2. a. Andrea wants to know how much money she will have in 8 years if she deposits her $800 tax refund now and then deposits an additional $50 per month in her account that pays an APR of 1.5% compounded monthly. Use Excel to determine how much money will Andrea have in the account in 8 years?
b. If Andrea changes her mind and decides that instead of setting aside $50 per month she wants to know how much she will have to deposit each month to save up a total of $4000, we can use goal seek to find the value for PMT which yields $4000 at the end of 8 years. How much money will Andrea need to deposit per month?

4. Suppose Rachel and Nadia buy a house and have to take out a loan for $194500. If they qualify for an APR of 4% and choose a 30 year mortgage, we can find their monthly payment by using the PMT formula. If Rachel and Nadia decide to pay $1500 per month, we can use goal seek to see how many years it will take to pay off the loan.
Use the PMT function and goal seek (as needed) to answer the following questions about Rachel and Nadia’s mortgage.
a. What is their monthly payment on the 30 year loan?
b. If they qualify for the same APR on a 15 year loan, what will the new monthly payment be?
c. If Rachel and Nadia have monthly payments of $1500 each month, how long will it take for them to pay off their loan?
d. If they want to have monthly payments of $800 and still pay the loan off in 30 years, what interest rate would they have to qualify for?
