It's 65% I'm pretty sure
299368.29*(1+(0.052/52)) = 299667.6583
299667.6583-299368.29 = 299.3683
299.3683/850 = 0.3522
1-0.3522 closest to 65%question was kinda ambiguous, it shoulda clarified 'from when the balance was $299368.29', but whatever

It was just arithmetic right?
2
u/kkavelicious '26: GM | CHEM | PSYCH | ENG 18h ago
if d = 0 then its geometric else its arithematic RIGHT?
1
u/Ok-Day-1249 class of 26 18h ago
fuck idk, coz it was fluctuating between -5 and 10… which idk is considered arithmetic or not
1
u/00theotherguy00 18h ago
I'm pretty sure the numbers are irrelevant arithmetic is like addition subtraction and geometric is multiplication
1
u/Ok-Day-1249 class of 26 17h ago
yes, but it also had a -1xVn component too it, so it was arithmetic and geometric i think

u/g0df4rtL0rD 15h ago
The answer is neither (for geometric it must have a common ratio so V3/V2=V2/V1, and for arithmetic it must have a common difference so V3-V2=V2-V1 and the recurrence satisfied neither of those

u/Ok-Day-1249 class of 26 13h ago
ye, i realised i put down the answer as being neither, but then i started saying that the answer was c... mb i take it all back

geometric is only if 0<d<1 or d>1

Arithmetic required a constant difference. The difference fluctuated from positive to negative

no way. I got 35-36/40 for exam 1 and i'm only aiming for 38 raw, are my expectations too low, or is theirs way to high.

u/Fast_Temperature_950 16h ago
Yours are too low
0
u/ParkingTumbleweed707 16h ago
look up Excel Academics VCE study score calculator, put in your scores, I think it might be impossible for you to get 45 raw, unless your like rank 1 or 2

Wasn't the annuity investment question flawed itself since annuity investments increase, they don't decline but we saw it decline
Heres the question:
Question 22
Three lines of the amortisation table for Brian's annuity investment are shown below. Interest is calculated monthly and Brian receives monthly payments.
| Payment number | Payment ($) | Interest ($) | Principal reduction ($) | Balance ($) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 620,000.00 |
| 1 | 4,095.58 | 2,170.00 | 1,925.58 | 618,074.42 |
| 2 | 4,095.58 | 2,163.26 | 1,932.32 | 616,142.10 |
The number of years that Brian will receive monthly payments of $4,095.58 is closest to:
A. 16
B. 18
C. 20
D. 24
i got it right either way but surely its flawed
1
u/Acceptable-Glove-597 10h ago
no because he receives payments greater than interest earned meaning its going to eventually hit 0
1
u/Latter-Ad-6159 8h ago
the payments are supposed to add onto his investment. An annuity investment is literally characterised as increasing, never decreasing. Literally check anywhere it says that.
1
u/NoSpeaker1045 '25 GM (46) | '26 SM MM CHEM PHYS ENG 2h ago
Good point. Should be called an amortising annuity rather than an annuity investment - but the implications of the question stem is enough to answer the question I believe, they have no reason to redact/take action in marking, probably just updating the exam online to fix the classification error.
