Question

A company decides to set aside a certain sum at the end of each year to create a sinking fund, which should amount to ₹ 4 lakhs in 4 years at 10% p.a. Find the amount to be set aside each year?

Solution

Given, A = ₹ 4,00,000, n = 4 years, r = 10% p.a, i = `"r"/100 = 10/100` = 0.1

Now, A = `"C"/"i"[(1 + "i")^"n" - 1]`

∴ 4,00,000 = `"C"/0.1[(1 + 0.1)^4 - 1]`

∴ 4,00,000 × 0.1 = C[(1.1)4 − 1]

∴ 40,000 = C[1.4641 − 1]

∴ 40,000 = C(0.4641)

∴ C = `(40,000)/0.4641`

∴ C = ₹ 86,188.32

∴ The amount to be set aside each year is ₹ 2,00,000.

For annuity due,

C = ₹ 20,000, n = 3, I = 0.1, (1.1)–3 = 0.7513

Therefore, P = `square/0.1 xx [1 - (1 + 0.1)^square]`

= 2,00,000 [1 – 0.7513]

= ₹ `square`


The future amount, A = ₹ 10,00,000

Period, n = 20, r = 5%, (1.025)20 = 1.675

A = `"C"/"I" [(1 + "i")^"n" - 1]`

I = `5/200` = `square` as interest is calculated semi-annually

A = 10,00,000 = `"C"/"I" [(1 + "i")^"n" - 1]`

10,00,000 = `"C"/0.025 [(1 + 0.025)^square - 1]`

= `"C"/0.025 [1.675 - 1]`

10,00,000 = `("C" xx 0.675)/0.025`

C = ₹ `square`


For an annuity due, C = ₹ 2000, rate = 16% p.a. compounded quarterly for 1 year

∴ Rate of interest per quarter = `square/4` = 4

⇒ r = 4%

⇒ i = `square/100 = 4/100` = 0.04

n = Number of quarters

= 4 × 1

= `square`

⇒ P' = `(C(1 + i))/i [1 - (1 + i)^-n]`

⇒ P' = `(square(1 + square))/0.04 [1 - (square + 0.04)^-square]`

= `(2000(square))/square [1 - (square)^-4]`

= 50,000`(square)`[1 – 0.8548]

= ₹ 7,550.40
