Answer / kangchuentat

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - ANSWER 34.14 : (a) When n = 1 million years, it could be approximated as n = infinity. Then y = [ 1 - 1 / (1 + r) ^ n ] / r = [ 1 - 1 / (1 + r) ^ (infinity) ] / r = [ 1 - 1 / (infinity) ] / r = (1 - 0) / r = 1 / r. (b) For future value of $10000 and n = infinity forever, use the equation of y = 1 / r for future value of 1 and interest rate r. As r = 10 % = 0.1, then y = x / r = $10000 / 0.1 = $100000, where x = future value.
