The price elasticity of the bond, based on the years to maturity and the required rate of return is -0.494

<h3>How to find the price elasticity of he bond?</h3><h3 />

First, find the new price of the bond:
= 1, 000 / ( 1 + 15%)⁵

= $497

The change in price:

= (497 - 567) / 567

= -12.3%

Then find the percentage change in the required rate of return:

= (15 - 12%) / 12

= 25%

The price elasticity of the bond is:

= -12.3% / 25%

= -0.494

Future value= $20,000

Present value= $5,000

Interest rate= 9%

<u>To calculate the number of years required to reach the objective, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Suppose the total market value of all the final goods and services produced in the country of Rushya was $8 billion in 2008 (mea
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Option 4 is definitely correct: Whether real GDP increased cannot be determined with the information given.

Explanation:

The information that is given only states that there has been an increase in the market value of final goods and services in two years. So, we cannot conclude that production increased in Rushya or average price levels increased there as per Option A and C respectively, because market value can be increased by both increase in production or price levels. Even Option B cannot be concluded as the real GDP is dependent on other variables as compared to the total market value.

Thus, only appropriate statement is option D: we cannot determine increase in real GDP with the given information.

Today only, a table is being sold for $217 . this is 62% of its regular price. what was the price yesterday?
Troyanec [42]
If yesterday's price was the regular price then the equation $217=62%x can be used to solve for x. so x = $217/0.62=$350. To check the answer, multiply $350 by 0.62 = $217. In other words, x is the unknown regular price so 0.62 times x = $217 and then cross multiplying means dividing $217 by 0.62, to get the answer.

shtirl [24]

Answer:

$8,000

Explanation:

The computation of the monthly rental expense allocated is shown below:

Rent allocated to 1st floor:

= $30,000 × 2 ÷ 3

= $20,000

There is 50,000 square feet i.e. equally divided between first floor and second floor. so 25,000 square feet for each floor.

Now  

Rent allocated to 10,000 square feet:

= ($20,000 ÷ 25,000) × 10,000

= $8,000
