问题如下:
Lucy believes that after retirement she will need about $2 million totally for her daily expenses. At present, she has $1million investment at a stated annual interest rate of 2.5%. Assuming compounded daily, how long does it take for Lucy to have enough money for retirement life?
选项:
A.27.73 years
B.28.07 years
C.26.48 years
解释:
A is correct.
EAR=(1+0.025/365)365-1=0.02531
$1million*(1+0.02531)N =$2million, N=27.73 years.
用计算器算的时候,I/Y=2.5/365
而从state rate 转换成EAR的时候,公式是(1+2.5%/365)^365-1
这两个都是算EAR吗?
