document.write( "Question 1161622: A person plans to invest a total of ​$250,000 in a money market​ account, a bond​ fund, an international stock​ fund, and a domestic stock fund. She wants 60​% of her investment to be conservative​ (money market and​ bonds). She wants the amount in domestic stocks to be 4 times the amount in international stocks.​ Finally, she needs an annual return of ​$10,000
\n" ); document.write( "Assuming she gets annual returns of​ 2.5% on the money market​ account, 3.5% on the bond​ fund, 4% on the international stock​ fund, and​ 6% on the domestic stock​ fund, how much should she put in each​ investment?

\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "60% of $250000, i.e.  $150000,  go to the money market and bonds.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Hence, 40%,  or $100000,  go to the international and domestic funds.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "These $100000 splits this way:  $820000 go to the international and $80000 to the domestic.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Then these $100000 produce the annual interest of  0.04*20000 + 0.06*80000 = 5600 dollars.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    Thus you reduce the problem to TWO funds ONLY: a money market account and the bond fund \r\n" );
document.write( "    with the total  amount of $250000 - $100000 = $150000 and the annual interest of $1000 - $5600 = $4400.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "It can be solved using one unknown x = bonds.  You have then this equation\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    0.025*(150000-x) + 0.035*x = 4400\r\n" );

document.write( "The solution to it is\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    x = \"%284400-0.025%2A150000%29%2F%280.035-0.025%29\" = 65000  dollars.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "ANSWER.  Bonds:  $65000;   money market:  150-65000 = 85000 dollars;\r\n" );
