Purple Cloud Inc. has $500,000 to invest. The company is trying to decide between two alternative uses of the funds. One alternative provides S65.000 at the end of each year for 10 years, and the other is to receive a single lump-sum payment of 5900,000 at the end of the 10 years. Which alternative should Purple Cloud select? Assume the interest rate is constant over the entire investment Purple Cloud Inc. has completed the purchase of 25 new tractors. The fair value of the equipment is $1,450,000. The purchase agreement specifies an immediate down payment of $290,000 and semiannual payments of $157,606 beginning at the end of 6 months for 5 years. What is the interest rate, to the nearest percent, used in discounting this purchase transaction Purple Cloud Inc. loans money to one of its major suppliers in the amount of S600,000. Purple Cloud accepts an, 10% note due in 5 years with interest payable semiannually. After 1 year (and receipt of interest for 1 year), Purple Cloud needs money and therefore sells the note to Fourth National Bank, which demands interest on the note of 12% compounded semiannually. What is the amount Purple Cloud will receive on the sale of the note Purple Cloud Inc. wishes to accumulate $1,800,000 by December 31, 2024, to retire bonds outstanding. The company deposits 5100,000 on December 31, 2014, which will earn interest at 8% compounded quarterly, to help in the retirement of this debt. In addition, the company wants to know how much should be deposited at the end of each quarter for 10 years to ensure that $1,800,000 is available at the end of 2024. (The quarterly deposits will also earn at a rate of 8%, compounded quarterly.) (Round to even dollars.) Purple Cloud Inc. has $500,000 to invest.
