Answer:

interest rate is 2.25 %

Explanation:

given data

sell bond = $715

bond matures =  15 years

redeem =  $1,000

solution

we apply here formula that is

amount = principal × (1+r)^{t}    ................1

here put value and we get

1000 = 715  × (1+r)^{15}

(1+r)^{15} = \frac{1000}{715}

solve it we get

r = 0.022617

so rate is 2.25 %

maxonik [38]

Answer:

Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%

Explanation:

WACC = Weight of Equity * Cost of Equity + Weight of Debt * (1-Tax rate) * Cost of Debt

16% = 45%* Cost of Equity + 55%*(1-40%)*9%

16%-55%*(1-40%)*9% = 45%*Cost of Equity

Cost of Equity = 28.9556%

Current price of Stock = D1/(Cost of Equity - Growth)

25 = 4/(28.9556%-Growth)

Growth = 28.9556%-4/25 = 12.96%

ROE = Net income/Equity = 1.4/(45%*9)

Growth rate = (1- Payout ratio)*ROE

12.96% = (1-Payout ratio)*  1.4/(45%*9)

Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%

How auto insurance companies manage risk ?<br>​
Nana76 [90]

____________________________________________________

Answer:

Insurance companies manages risk by balancing the low-risk drivers and the high-risk drivers. Insurance would charge higher rates for high risk drivers.

____________________________________________________

Explanation:

Insurance companies manages risk by sorting out the people who have a lower chance of risking a crash, with people who have a higher chance of risking a crash. They do this by charging low rates to the people that have a lower chance of causing a risk. They charge them low because they are trustworthy, and don't need to rack up a lot of money quick if they ever get into a crash. Remember, insurance makes people pay monthly so they could use that money in a accident.

But, this is different for people with higher risk. People that have a high risk of getting into an accident would be charged with a higher rate than people with lower risk. Insurance companies charge them with higher rates because since higher risk drivers get are more likely to get into an accident, insurance companies want to make sure that they can get the money for the accident as soon as possible. Insurance companies are the ones that pay for the accident, and that's why most places require you to have insurance while you drive.

goblinko [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": increase; decrease.

Explanation:

Producer surplus is the difference between the price at which the manufacturer actually sells a product and the minimum price the manufacturer would have accepted. The surplus results from the producer being able to sell their goods at a market price higher than their minimum price.  

So, <em>if producer A manufactures a product that is being sold at a higher price level abroad, its producer surplus will </em><u><em>increase</em></u><em>. However, the overall economic surplus with trade will </em><u><em>decrease</em></u><em> since the introduction to producer A to the market will allow consumers to purchase the goods at a lower price</em>.
