Answer:

The correct answer for option (a) is 7.17% and for option (b) is $48,546.69.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

(a) Present value = $3,000

Future value = $6,000

Time period = 10 years

So, we can calculate the annual rate of return by using following formula:

Rate of return = (( FV ÷ PV)^1/t  -1)

= (( $6,000 ÷ $3,000)^1/10 -1)

= (2)^0.1 - 1

= 1.07177346254 - 1

= .07177 or 7.17%

(b) Present value = $12,000

Rate of interest (r) = 15%

Time period = 10 year

So, we can calculate the Future value by using following formula:

FV = PV × ( 1+r)^t

= $12,000 × ( 1 + 15%)^10

= $12,000 × 4.04555773571

= $48,546.69

Suppose there are 2,000 people who are unemployed as a result of cyclical unemployment and 1,000 people who are unemployed as a
olga55 [171]

Answer:

1,000

Explanation:

Suppose the town of Boone has a total population of 50,000 people. Of those, 45,000 people are employed. There are 1,000 full-time students who are not employed or actively seeking work. The rest of the people are out of work but have been actively seeking work within the past four weeks.

This information is not given in the question.

For computing the frictional unemployment, first we have to determine the unemployed which is shown below:

Number of unemployed would be

= Total population - employed - full time students

= 50,000 - 45,000 - 1,000

= 4,000

Now the frictional unemployment would be

=  Unemployed - cyclical unemployment - structural unemployment

= 4,000 - 2,000 - 1,000

= 1,000

Gertrude takes out a $5,500 subsidized Stafford loan, which must be paid back in ten years. Gertrude will graduate four years af
Sergio [31]

$2,095.30 interest will she pay by the time the loan is repaid

Solution:

The $5,500 guaranteed Stafford loan is taken from Gertrude.

The loan has a monthly compounding interest rate of 6.8 percent.

Price current= $5,500.

Present Value = $5,500

Time period = 10 years

So , N = 10 x 12 = 120 months.

Interest rate, R = 6.8/1200 = 0.005666667

PV = Pmt * [1 - (1+R)^(-N)]/(R)

5500 = Pmt * [1 - (1+0.005666667)^(-120)]/(0.005666667)

Pmt = $63.29418157

She got full refund. = 63.29418157 x 120 = $7,595.30

Interest paid = Total repayment - Loan Principal

                      = $7,595.30 - $5,500

                      = $2,095.30
