How many years will it take for $$197,000$ to grow to be $$554,000$ if it is invested in an account with a quoted annual interest rate of $8\%$ with monthly compounding of interest?

At what quoted annual interest rate must $$134,000$ be invested so that it will grow to be $$459,000$ in $15$ years if interest is compounded weekly?

You are offered an annuity that will pay $$24,000$ per year for $11$ years $($the first payment will occur one year from today$).$ If you feel that the appropriate discount rate is $13\%,$ what is the annuity worth to you today?

If you deposit $$16,000$ per year for $12$ years $($each deposit is made at the end of each year$)$ in an account that pays an annual interest rate of $14\%,$ what will your account be worth at the end of $12$ years?

You plan to borrow $$389,000$ now and repay it in $25$ equal annual installments $($payments will be made at the end of each year$).$ If the annual interest rate is $14\%,$ how much will your annual payments be$?$
