You borrowed $200 and repaid $211 at the end of the year. During the year, inflation was 0.7%. What was the real interest rate, in percent? (Please use the Fisher effect to approximate your answer if appropriate.) Round to one decimal place digit and do not enter the % sign. If your answer is 6.14%, enter 6.1. If your answer is 6.16%, enter 6.2. If appropriate, remember to enter the-sign 4.8
Individual retirement accounts (IRAS) were established by the U.S. government to encourage saving. An individual who deposits part of current earnings in an IRA does not have to pay income taxes on the earnings deposited, nor are any income taxes charged on the interest earned by the funds in the IRA. However, when the funds are withdrawn from the IRA, the full amount withdrawn is treated as income and is taxed at the individual's current income tax rate. In contrast, an individual depositing in a non-IRA account has to pay income taxes on the funds deposited and on interest earned in each year but does not have to pay taxes on withdrawals from the account. Another feature of IRAs that is different from a standard savings account is that funds deposited in an IRA cannot be withdrawn prior to retirement, except upon payment of a substantial penalty. a. Sarah, who is five years from retirement, receives a $10,000 bonus at work. She is trying to decide whether to save this extra income in…
4. A company introduced a new product to the market in the first month of the year which was supported by the corresponding advertising campaign and showed steady growth in the following months. The initial price was set at a level of 30% above average cost (MK). The company's goal is to cover its overheads and achieve maximization in profits and that's why I'm wondering if the price of €7,5 is optimal. With the continuous growth of sales, the company conducted market research and found that the elasticity of demand towards the price is -3. The formula for calculating the demand elasticity to the price is given: ε T = [-MK/(T-MK)] - 1 Sales (tons) and cost (mm. (EUR) For the next 3 months they are estimated as follows: JANUARY FEBRUARY MARCH Sales (volume) 2.250 2.500 2.750 Raw materials €1.400 €1.550 €1.700 Work €3.350 €4.050 €4.950 Other industrial costs €3.000 €3.075 €3.150 Administrative expenses €2.150 €2.150…
Below you will find the Demand and Supply Curves for $250,000 bonds that mature in 18 years: Qd = 400,000 – 2(P) Qs = 3(P) – 100,000 What is the current equilibrium interest rate in that bond market?
Consider a bond without an expiration date that makes a fixed interest payment of $210 per year. Complete the following table by calculating the interest rate on the bond at different sale prices. (Hint: The effective interest rate on a bond is a ratio of the interest payment to the sale price of the bond times 100.) Price of Bond Interest Rate (Dollars) (Percent) 1,200 1,000 750 600 Use the blue points (circle symbol) and the preceding table to plot the relationship between bond prices and interest rates on the following graph. Note: Plot your points in the order in which you would like them connected. Line segments will connect the points automatically. The line showing the relationship between bond prices and interest rates has a _____(POSITIVE/NEGATIVE) slope; in other words, there is _______(INVERSE / A DIRECT) relationship between bond prices and interest rates.

Jane, who works for the economic research department in a multinational corporation, is preparing a report for the advisory board of the company. The report intends to clarify in which country they should invest given the expected change in demand. The objective is, of course, to identify the country with greater change in demand. Jane analyzes countries A and B that currently have the same demand. She calculates the partial derivatives of demand with respect to income and finds that for country A it is greater than for country B. Demand in country A is measured in pounds and in country B in Kg. Can we conclude that if the only change expected in both countries is a change in income of 3.5%, then the company should invest in country A? no, we should calculate instead the income elasticity for the consumption of the good the company sells in each country. There is no statistic that can illuminate the advisory board on this problem. yes, because the derivative tells us that for each…
Dell Computer makes its suppliers wait 37 days on average to be paid for their goods; however, Dell is paid by its customers immediately. Thus, Dell earns interest on this float, the money that it is implicitly borrowing. If Dell can earn an annual interest rate of 4%, what is this float worth to Dell per dollar spent on inputs?
Suppose that you have bought a total of 3200 shares of stock of a particular company. You bought 1200 shares of stock at $18 per share, 800 shares of stock at $10 per share, and the remaining shares at $21 per share. What is the average price you paid per share of stock? (please round your answer to 2 decimal places)
Assume that you are employed by the government of Tanzania in 1964, a new nation recently independent from Britain. The Tanzanian parliament has decided that it will spend 10 million shillings on schools, roads, and healthcare for the year. You estimate that the net taxes for the year are eight million shillings. The difference will be financed by selling 10-year government bonds at 12% interest per year. The interest on outstanding bonds must be added to government expenditure each year. Assume that additional taxes are added to finance this increase in government expenditure so the gap between government spending is always two million. If the school, road, and healthcare budget are unchanged, compute the value of the accumulated debt in 10 years.
