- Please read the scenario below and asnwer the questions that follows. Please show clear working and answers thank you. Stephanie Carter has been gifted a sum of $50,000 by her grandparents on completing her graduation successfully. She is a fresh finance graduate and is excited to invest some money in the capital market, for which she intends to use the gifted sum of $50,000. However, instead of committing this money to the market immediately, she decides to wait for some time, work in the field and acquire some experience before proceeding with her intended investment. She thus contemplates an extremely conservative investment in a portfolio of stocks and bonds, at the start of year 5 from now. For now, she will leave the $50,000 in a fixed deposit with the bank which promises an interest rate of 6% per annum. She will require a return of at least 9% on her stock investments and 4% on bond investments. Stephanie would have to pay 25% taxes on any interest income.

- Jonatan Jelen is considering opening a bicycle shop in New York City. Jonatan enjoys biking, but this is to be a business endeavor from which he expects to make a living.

We certainly can use the help. Marvin: Sounds good. I enjoy outdoor work, and I could use the money to help with next year’s school expenses.Tina: I’ve got a plan that can help you out on that. As you know, I’ll pay you $14 per hour, but in addition, I’d like to pay you with cash. Since you’re only working for the summer, it really doesn’t make sense for me to go to the trouble of formally putting you on our payroll system. In fact, I do some jobs for my clients on a strictly cash basis, so it would be easy just to pay you that way.Marvin: Well, that’s a bit unusual, but I guess money is money.Tina: Yeah, not only that, it’s tax-free!Marvin: What do you mean?Tina: Didn’t you know?
