#8
What is the formula for calculating the present value of an annuity?
PV = PMT * (1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r

All of the above
#12
What is the formula for calculating the annual percentage rate (APR) when compounding occurs more frequently than once per year?
APR = (1 + r/n)^n - 1
APR = r * n
APR = r / n
APR = (1 + r)^n
#13
Which of the following is NOT a component of the time value of money?
Opportunity cost
Inflation
Risk
Profit margin
#14
What is the formula for calculating the number of periods (n) required to reach a future value?
n = log(FV / PV) / log(1 + r)
n = log(PV / FV) / log(1 + r)
n = log(FV / PV) / r
n = log(PV / FV) / r
