Answer:

FV = $16126.99655 rounded off to $16127

Explanation:

To calculate the future value of a sum of money, we simply multiply the present value by (1 + interest rate) for the period of time that we require the amount to be compounded. Thus, the formula for the future value of a sum of amount with annual compounding is,

FV = P * (1+i)^t

Where,

  • FV is future value
  • PV is present value
  • i is the interest rate
  • t is the period of time

For semi annual compounding, we simply divide the annual i by 2 and multiply the t by 2. So, Future value of an amount with semi annual compounding will be,

FV = P * (1 + i/2)^t*2

FV = 12000 * (1 + 0.06/2)^5*2

FV = 12000 * (1+0.03)^10

FV = $16126.99655 rounded off to $16127

Describe at least three exchange rate factors that are likely to attract foreign investors to a country's currency. Explain why
lana66690 [7]

Answer: 1. High Interest

2. Low Government Debt

3. Political Stability

Explanation:

Foreign Investors are Investors and investors always like to invest where there are prospects of growth and profit.

High Interest Rates give them the opportunity to invest their money in a currency that will give them a great return because a country where there are high interest rates imparts this on its currency which causes it to rise in value thereby giving currency holders a capital gain.

Another factor is Government Debt. A country with high Government debt will typically be unable to raise funds through the bond market easily. This shortage of funds can lead to inflation which devalues currency causing foreign currency investors to flee.

Finally there is the Political Factor (other factors exist). A stable country politically stands a better chance of maintaining a higher value currency that one with lower political stability. This is because political Stability attracts investors and as more investments come into a country, this reflects in its currency by making it stronger which will attract foreign currency investors.
