# Use Table 12-1 to calculate the amount of the periodic payments needed to amount to the financial objective (future value of the annuity) for the following sinking funds. Sinking Fund Payment Time Nominal Interest Future Value Payment Frequency Period (years) Rate (%) Compounded (Objective) 10. every month 2 1 4 6 monthly $7,000 To determine To calculate: The amount of sinking fund payment where payment frequency is 1 month, time duration is 214 years, nominal rate of return is 6%, future value is$7,000 and interest is compounded monthly.

Explanation

Given Information:

Payment frequency is 1 month, time duration is 214 years, nominal rate of return is 6%, future value is $7,000 and interest is compounded monthly. Formula used: Steps to compute the amount of sinking fund payment; Step 1: First find the future value table factor from table 12-1 by using appropriate rate and number of periods of the sinking fund. Step 2: Compute the amount of sinking fund payment. The formula to compute the sinking fund payment is, Sinking fund payment=Future value of sinking fundFuture value table factor Calculation: Consider that payment where payment frequency is 1 month, time duration is 214 years, nominal rate of return is 6%, future value is$7,000 and interest is compounded monthly.

As the interest is compounded monthly. So, the interest rate period is;

6%12=0
