An A&E firm planning for a future expansion deposited $40,000 each year for 5 years into a sinking (investment) fund that was to pay an unknown rate of return. If the account had a total of $451,000 immediately after the fifth deposit, what rate of return did the company make on these deposits?
What will be an ideal response?
F = A(F/A,i%,5)
451,000 = 40,000(F/A,i%,5)
(F/A,i%,5) = 11.2750
Interpolate between 40% and 50% interest tables or use Excel’s RATE function
By RATE, i = 41.6%
