Answer:
The company paid $278,031
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
A company bought a parcel of land twenty years ago. The land is currently worth $575,000. The yearly appreciation rate has been 3.7%.
<u>To calculate the past value of the land, we need to use the following formula:</u>
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= present value (20 years ago)
n= 20
FV= 575,000
i= 0.037
PV= 575,000 / (1.037^20)
PV= $278,031
Answer:
= $877.32
Explanation:
<em>The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).</em>
<em>Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV</em>
The value of bond for Jasper Inc can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
<em>PV of interest payments</em>
<em>Semi annul interest paymen</em>t
= 4.5% × 1000 × 1/2
= 22.5
<em>Semi-annual yield</em> = 5.6/2 = 2.8% per six months
<em>Total period to maturity (in months)</em>
= (2 × 19) = 38 periods <em> (Note it was sold a year ago)</em>
<em>PV of interest = </em>
<em> </em>22.5 × (1- (1+0.028)^(-38)/0.028)
= 22.5 ×23.20871226
= 522.196
Step 2
<em>PV of Redemption Value</em>
= 1,000 × (1.056)^(-19)
= 355.128
<em>Price of bond</em>
= 522.19 + 355.12
= $877.32

Answer:
d. The nominal interest rate was 6 percent and the inflation rate was 1 percent.
Explanation:
Nominal interest rate = real interest rate + inflation rate
Real interest rate is nominal interest rate less inflation rate. The real interest rate represents the real purchasing power of interest paid.
If the interest rate buys 5 percent more goods ,it means that the purchasing power and the real interest rate is 5 percent.
The nominal interest rate is 6 %
Inflation rate = nominal interest rate - real interest rate
= 6% - 5% = 1%
I hope my answer helps you.
