You are offered a chance to buy an asset for $4,500 that is expected to produce cash flows of $750 at the end of Year 1, $1,000
zzz [600]

Answer:

<em>a. 22.64%</em>

Explanation:

At first we are going to need to compute the Internal rate of return(IRR) (in which the current value of inflows = the current value of outflows)

Let's let the IRR be <em>x percent</em>

Therefore $4,500 = $750 / (1.0x)

+ $1,000 / (1.0x) <em>power 2</em> + $850 / (1.0x) <em>power 3 </em>

+ $6,250 / (1.0x) <em>power 4</em>

Thus, x = approximate return rate = <em>22.64 percent</em>

"You’ve observed the following returns on Crash-n-Burn Computer’s stock over the past five years: 6 percent, –13 percent, 24 per
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

6.80%

Explanation:

The average nominal returns is the sum of the returns for 5 years divided by the number of returns considered( i.e 5, 5 returns for 5 years)

average nominal returns=(6%-13%+24%+18%+15%)/5

average nominal returns=10.00%

The Fisher's equation is shown thus:

(1 + i)  = (1 + r) (1 + π)

i=nominal return=10.00%

r=average real return=the unknown

π=inflation rate=3%

(1+10.00%)=(1+r)*(1+3%)

1.10=(1+r)*1.03

1+1=1.10/1.03

r=(1.10/1.03)-1

r=6.80%
