问题如下:
Clark opens two bank accounts. Account 1 is compounded quarterly with stated annual rate of 3%, while Account 2 is compounded annually with annual interest rate of 2.5%. Clark put the principal of $30,000 to Account 2 and annual interest to Account 1 as long as he received. After three years, what is the difference between Clark’s current wealth planning and leaving all the money in Account 2?
选项:
A.$13.50
B.$12.24
C.$16.12
解释:
B is correct.
Annual interest received from Account 2 is $30,000*2.5%=$750.
After three years, Clark’s current wealth planning:
Leave all the money in Account 2: $30,000*(1+2.5%)3=$32306.71
The difference is $32318.95-$32306.71=12.24
如果把钱全放在Account 2, 最后的受益应该是Fv=30000*(1+2.5%)^3=32307, 如果按Clerk现在的plan, 我算PV=0, PMT=750,I/Y=3%/4 N=3, FV=2266.9 32307-(2266.9+30000)=40,请问这样为什么不对?
