Answer:

               \large\boxed{\large\boxed{\$ 4,523.81}}

Explanation:

The <em>price of a consol</em> (a type of debt issued by the goverment) is the present value of all the future payments.

A constant <em>payment forever</em> is known as a constant annuity to perpetuity.

The price of a constant perpetuity is calculated with the formula:

      Price=C/r

Where C is the constant payment, equal to $190 (annually forever), and r is the opportunity cost, which you assume to be equal to the market interest rate: r = 4.2%.

Substituting:

        Price=\$ 190/(4.2\%) =\$ 190/0.042=\$ 4,523.81

vredina [299]

Answer:

Becoming dependent on other companies for essential expertise and capabilities.

Answer:

The answer is: D) is a more convenient location to hold the trial.

Explanation:

A change of venue happens when a case is transferred from a court in one location to a court in a different location. It can be requested if it is convenient for the parties in a lawsuit.

In this case both Eduardo and Delia live in Georgia, so if a trial is held there, they would need to travel and probably hire local lawyers which can be time consuming and expensive.  Eduardo can argue that by holding the case in Georgia benefits both Delia and him.

The consumer price index (CPI) can be used to measure inflation. There are potential problems with this process though that can
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

a. Overstates Inflation.

In the case of Mary and Bob, the CPI would have already increased but in this case the price of the minivan increased as well. This will overstate inflation because it will not measure the general rise in price alone (inflation), it will also measure the rise in price as a result of the new minivan having better features.

b. Understated Inflation

Donna's case represents an understated inflation because the quantity shrank yet the price stayed the same. This means that the price is now buying less quantity than it used to which is inflation because more dollars are now required to buy the previous amount. This was not however recorded as there was no change in price.

c. Overstates Inflation

In the case of Zach, the inflation will be overstated because Zach is no longer buying bagels and is now buying muffins so continuing to use bagels as a representative good in the basket of goods used to calculate CPI would be overstating it.

d. Accurate representation of Inflation

In Chris's case, the increase in the price of the same shoe over the years has been because of a general rise in prices and not because it is a different model. It is the same shoe and its price is rising generally so this is an accurate depiction of inflation.
