Answer:

r>8.68695%

Annual rate of return is r>8.68695%

Explanation:

The net return, the buyer will get= 1+r-0.005

Where:

r is the interest rate

0.005 is expense ratio (0.5%)

Let suppose $1 is invested, then the return after two years is as below:

(1-0.04)*(1+r-0.005)^2

Considering the annual compounding of returns, the compound interest on $1 for 2 years will be (1+0.06)^2

The fund portfolio earn for you to be better off is:

(1-0.04)*(1+r-0.005)^2>(1+0.06)^2

0.96*(r+0.995)^2>1.1236

0.96*(r^2+1.99r+0.990)>1.1236\\0.96r^2+1.9104r+0.9504-1.1236>0\\0.96r^2+1.9104r-0.173>0

Solving the above equation, we will get:

r>0.0868695                     r>-2.0768 (Ignore this value as it is -ve

r>8.68695%

Annual rate of return is r>8.68695%

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Queensland 14.7%

New South Wales is 24.0%

Explanation:

This is a case of modified  return on investment since the question was specific that the  return on investment  should in terms margin and assets turnover.

The first task would be to compute margin and turnover  whereas the return on investment  would be  the multiples of both performance measures.

Margin =operating income/sales

Asset turnover=sales/average operating assets

operating income/sales*sales/average operating assets=operating income/average assets

This question also require proofing the above formula as I have done.

                                 Margin                  Assets turnover                      ROI

Queensland$82,320/$784,000=10.5%$784,000/$560,000=1.4     14.7%

South Wales$118,800/$1,485,000=8% $1,485,000/$495,000=         24.0%

R0I=margin*assets turnover

Queensland=10.5%*1.4=14.7%

New south sales=8%*3=24%

<h3>What are Checkable Deposits?</h3>

Any demand deposit account for which checks or drafts of any sort may be drawn is referred to as having checkable deposits in the technical sense. (The owner of a demand deposit account has the right to immediately, notice fewer withdrawals of funds.) The most liquid accounts available to consumers are checkable deposit accounts.

They also include any sort of negotiable draft, such as a Super NOW account or a negotiable order of withdrawal (NOW). (Withdrawing funds from NOW accounts may be subject to a seven-day written notification requirement, however, this is seldom necessary.)
