(1) What is the value at the end of Year 3 of the following cash flow stream if the quoted interest rate is 10%, compounded semiannually? (2) What is the PV of the same stream? (3) Is the stream an annuity? (4) An important rule is that you should never show a nominal rate on a time line or use it in calculations unless what condition holds? (Hint: Think of annual compounding, when INOM = EFF% = IPER.) What would be wrong with your answers to parts (1) and (2) if you used the nominal rate of 10% rather than the periodic rate, INOM/2 = 10%/2 = 5%?

Suppose we observe the three-year Treasury security rate (1R3) to be 4.9 percent, the expected one-year rate next year-E(21)-to be 5.4 percent, and the expected one-year rate the following year-E(301)-to be 6.4 percent.

Assume a problem statement involves only single amounts, that is, no series or gradients, and the interest rate is stated as 12% per year compounded quarterly. For the following n values, determine the proper interest rate to use in the factor equations: (a) n = 20 quarters; (b) n = 10 semiannual periods; (c) n = 5 years.
