Answer:

  5.26% profit (NRs 7,894.24)

Step-by-step explanation:

The exchange of 1,50,000 NRs to A$ will give ...

  A$ 1/(NRs 77.02) = x /1,50,000

  x = A$ 1,50,000/77.02 = A$ 1947.54 . . . . . (rounded down)

If the Nepali rupees are devalued by 5%, then what did buy A$ 1 will now buy only A$ 0.95. Then the exchange back to NRs will give ...

  (NRs 77.02)/(A$ 0.95) = x/(A$ 1947.54)

  x = NRs (1947.54)(77.02/0.95) = NRs 1,57,894.24

The effective profit is the difference from the amount initially exchanged, NRs 7,894.24, or ...

  (1,57,984.24/1,50,000 -1) × 100% ≈ 5.26%

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

Except for the loss in the exchange due to rounding down, the profit would be 1/0.95 -1 = 5.2632%. Instead, it is 5.2628%. This is why investors move their money to investments that retain their value when the local currency is losing its value.

What is the common ratio of the geometric sequence below? –2, 4, –8, 16, –32, ...
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The common ratio of the geometric sequence is:

r=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio 'r' and is defined by

a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}

where

  • aₙ is the nth term
  • a₁ is the first term
  • r is the common ratio

Given the sequence

-2,\:4,-8,\:16,\:-32,\:...

Compute the ratios of all the adjacent terms:  r=\frac{a_n+1}{a_n}

\frac{4}{-2}=-2,\:\quad \frac{-8}{4}=-2,\:\quad \frac{16}{-8}=-2,\:\quad \frac{-32}{16}=-2

The ratio of all the adjacent terms is the same and equal to

r=-2

Therefore, the common ratio of the geometric sequence is:

  • r=-2

Colin buys a car for £28100.
andriy [413]

Answer:

The amount the car will be worth after 6 years is £21,917 and 22 pence

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount for which Colin buys the car, PV = £28,100

The amount by which the car depreciates each year, r = 4%

The number of years after which the value of the car is sought, n = 6 years

The future value, FV, based on an annual depreciation is given as follows;

FV = PV \times \left ( 1 + \dfrac{r}{100} \right ) ^n

Substituting the known values gives;

FV_6 = 28,000 \times \left ( 1 - \dfrac{4}{100} \right ) ^6 =  21,917.22

Therefore, the amount the car will be worth after 6 years, future value FV₆ = £21,917 and 22 pence
