Answer:

A) future value = present value (1 + rate)ⁿ

420,000 = 2 (1 + r)¹⁸⁵

420,000 / 2 = (1 + r)¹⁸⁵

210,000 = (1 + r)¹⁸⁵

¹⁸⁵√210,000 = 1 + r

1.06848 = 1 + r

1.06848 - 1 = r

r = 0.06848 or 6.85%

B) future value = present value (1 + rate)ⁿ

3,158,000 = 420,000 (1 + r)⁴⁶

3,158,000 / 420,000 = (1 + r)⁴⁶

7.519 = (1 + r)⁴⁶

⁴⁶√7.519 = 1 + r

1.04483 = 1 + r

1.04483 - 1 = r

r = 0.04483 or 4.48%

C) future value = present value (1 + rate)ⁿ

3,158,000 = 2 (1 + r)²³¹

3,158,000 / 2 = (1 + r)²³¹

1,579,000 = (1 + r)²³¹

²³¹√1,579,000 = 1 + r

1.0637 = 1 + r

1.0637 - 1 = r

r = 0.0637 or 6.37%
