Find the future value using the effective interest rate | FE Exam Review

What's the next problem you want me to cover in engineering economic section, let me know in the comment below! 👇

[@mattlazarski3278]

The handbook states that m is number of compounding periods per year, and I can't find anything else in the handbook stating that the value of m is per compounding period. Could you explain where this came from?

[@AngelHernandez-np5tz]

Question. Shoudn’t m be 12 as it is compounded monthly?

[@oleopathic]

For next problem please cover an economic choice provlem between 2 alternatives. Using EUAC or PV method.

[@Jason-cp6mn]

m should be 4

Ncees pe hb 1.1, p. 37, 38, 41. Thank you. I like these random videos for my PE study. I have a plan and materials which I use. When a random video like this pops up I treat it as a pop-quiz (surprise) regardless of the topic I study at the moment. The idea is: if I do well on pop-quiz I should know the material especially since the problem comes out of nowhere and I am expected to solve it "on the spot" with what knowledge and refs I have. I've solved dozens econ problems from FE and PE camps. So here are my ideas: . Why can't we convert all variables to annual basis, instead ? Solve as an annual problem. . Why can't we convert all variables to mouthy basis, instead ? Solve as a monthly problem. . The effective interest eqn is represented in PE reg as well but I find it much quicker to just 6%/4 = 1.5%. And then go to tables with the 1.5%. Where might this not work ? . Never interpolate despite it being the correct action to take, mathematically, as this step is long and prone to human error. Find other ways. You must be quick !

A series of equal quarterly receipts of $500 extends over a period of 5 years. What is the present worth of this quarterly payment series at 8% interest compounded continuously? Ie = 2.02 % and P = $ 8154.96 How ?? Ie = e^r/k -1 is used. Why ??
