An investor has $24,000 to invest in bonds of AAA and B qualities. The AAA bonds yield an average of 6% and the B bonds yield 10%. The investor requires that at least three times as much money should be invested in AAA bonds as in B bonds. How much should be invested in each type of bond to maximize the return? What is the maximum return? Define the variables needed to solve this problem. Organize your given information. (This part NOT graded, but encouraged.) Write the complete linear programming problem, which includes the objective function and all constraints. Graph and make sure all lines are labeled and shaded/solution region is clear and easy to identify. Create a corner point chart. Remember to mark your solution. Answer in a complete sentence or two: How much should be invested in each type of bond to maximize the return? What is the maximum return?

Suppose you bought a condo for $100,000 financing it with a $20,000 down payment of your own funds and an $80,000 mortgage loan from a bank. Now, instead of (a) or (b), suppose the value of the condo fell from $100,000 to $70,000. Assuming you paid $100,000, financing it with $20,000 of your own money and $80,000 with a mortgage loan, and ignoring interest and other costs, calculate your rate of return on your asset (ROA) and your rate of return on equity (ROE). What is the value of your equity stake in the condo after the price fall?
Multiperiod Consumption-Saving Plan Assume a person is 35 years old and plans to retire at age 65. So s/he has 30 more years to work. Assume the following additional information apply: Annual (real) income = $40,000 Real interest rate = 5% Expected live after retirement = 20 years Desired retirement income = 75% of pre-retirement income = $30,000 Prepare lifetime consumption-savings schedule for the person. First calculate how much s/he should have at retirement in order to consume $30,000 per year for 20 more years. This is the PV of annuity of $30,000 over 20 years at interest rate of 5%. 30,000* (PVIFAs°20) = $373,866.31. This amount is also equal to the future value of what s/he should save over her/his remaining 30 working years. (Annual saving)* (FVIFAS9,30) = $373,866.31. Solve for annual saving and you will get $5,627.22.
