Accepted Solution

A:
Question 1:
A = P{1+r/365}^n

P = $1,380; r= 5% = 0.05; n = 3*365 =1095 (since it is compounded daily)
Substituting;

A = 1380(1+0.05/365)^1095 = $1,603.31

Question 2:
Earning in base year = $63,800
Earning in target year = 63,800*1.033 = $65,905.40

Purchasing power= Base year earning/Target year earning = {63800/65905.4}*100 = 96.81% which is equivalent to 65905.4-63800 = $2,105.40 loss in purchasing power.

Question 3:
A = P{1+r}^n, where P= $12 million, r= 5% = 0.05, n = 7 years

Then,

A= 12(1+0.05)^7 = 16.89 ≈ $17 million
