Answer:
The return for the year is -15.57%.
Explanation:
We have the formula to calculate Return for the year as:
* Return for the year = Dividend yield + Capital Gain/(Loss).
in which:
* Dividend yield is given at 1.5%;
* Capital Gain/(Loss) = Price at year end/ Price at the beginning of the year - 1 = 68/82 -1 = - 17.07%;
So we have:
* Return for the year = Dividend yield + Capital (Loss) = 1.5% - 17.07% = -15.57%.
Thus, the answer is -15.57%.

Explanation:
Shen is working in a country where the inflation rate is high.
He gets a salary every two weeks.
After receiving his salary he immediately goes out and buys all the goods he is going to need over the next two weeks.
He converts the remaining salary in a more stable currency.
He does this in order to prevent his salary from losing purchasing power.
This effort that he is making to prevent his real income from losing value is called the shoe-leather cost of inflation.
The shoe-leather cost can be defined as the cost of time and effort made to prevent the cash holdings from losing their value.

Answer:
The future value of a 18-year annuity of $2,000 per period where payments come at the beginning of each period is $59,078.
Explanation:
We apply the formula to calculate future value of annuity to find the future value of 18-year annuity as at the beginning of year 18 ( because payment comes at the beginning of the year):
2,000/5% x (1.05^18 -1) = $56,264.77.
We further compound the future value of 18-year annuity as at the beginning of year 18 for one period to come up with the future value of this annuity as at the end of 18 year time:
56,264.77 x 1.05 = $59,078.
So, the answer is $59,078.
