You are a financial advisor helping a young family create a college fund to provide for their daughter Mary’s education. Mary just turned 5. Her parents expect that she will go to Harvard University, starting school on her 18th birthday. She will only take four years to complete her degree. Currently, tuition and housing costs total $65,000 per year, which are paid at the beginning of each school year. These expenses are expected to increase at the rate of inflation which will run 4% annually for the next 25 years. In each year until Mary enters Harvard University, Mary’s parents will make a deposit into the college fund to exactly provide for all of the costs of her education when she enters college (the first deposit will be made one year from today). Since her parents expect their income to grow at the rate of 2% annually, they would like the amount that they put each year into the fund to increase in nominal terms at the rate of 2% annually. Mary’s parents can earn a rate of 10% annually on their investments and they face a 30% tax rate. a. What do you expect tuition and housing to cost during Mary’s first year at Harvard University?b. How much must be in the savings account on Mary’s 18th birthday after the last deposit has been made but before the first payment to Harvard University?c. What should be the amount of the first payment?d. Alternatively, Mary’s parents could open a 529 account that allows college savings to grow tax-free. If they saved in this account rather than in a normal investment fund, and still earned the same pre-tax return, how much should be their first deposit?

Insurance companies have internal controls in place to protect assets, monitor the accuracy of accounting records and encourage operational efficiencies and adherence to policies. these internal controls are generally of two types: administrative controls and accounting controls. administrative controls are the policies and procedures that guide the daily actions of employees. accounting controls are the policies and procedures that delineate authorizations of financial transactions that are done, safeguard assets, and provide reports on the company’s financial status in a reliable and timely manner. internal controls should include both preventative and detective controls. the purpose of preventative controls is to stop problems and errors before they occur. detective controls identify problems after they have occurred. preventative controls are usually more effective at reducing problems, but they also tend to be more expensive. internal controls must be flexible to adjust for changes in laws and regulations in addition to adding new products or modifying current ones. companies must also do regular analyses to ensure that the benefits of implementing the controls are worth their costs. when concerned about paying unwarranted insurance claims which type of control would be useful?
