If you have 1-year rate is 8%, 2-year rate is 9%, and 3-year rate is 10%. Assume that the pure expectations theory for the term
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

1 year rate 2 year from now = 12%  (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

1-year rate = 8%

2-year rate = 9%

3-year rate = 10%

Computation:

According to Pure Expectations Hypothesis,

(1 + 3-year rate)³ = (1 + 2-year rate)² (1 + 1 year rate 2 year from now)

(1.10)³ = (1 + 1.09)²(1 + 1 year rate 2 year from now)

1.331 = 1.1881 (1 + 1 year rate 2 year from now)

(1 + 1 year rate 2 year from now)  = 1.12

1 year rate 2 year from now = 0.12

1 year rate 2 year from now = 12%  (Approx)

Suppose that the demand for my new book, Spatulas From Around the World, is such that the demand curve lies everywhere below the
dsp73

Answer:

C. Shut down the presses printing my book

Explanation:

Since the average variable cost of producing the book is above the demand curve, the best course of action is to shut down the printing (production) of more books. The author would lose less money by shutting down operations rather than continuing production at a variable cost higher than the demand he's receiving for the books.

In economics, when profit is less than the average variable cost, firms are advised to stop production in the short run and incur economic loss on fixed inputs. This is because with continued operations, total revenue would not only be lower than total cost, but rather, would also be less than total variable cost.

What criteria do accountants use to decide whether to use present or future values in accounting statements?
Airida [17]

Answer:

Present value is nothing but how much future sum of money worth today. It is one of the important concepts in finance and it is a basis for stock pricing, bond pricing, financial modeling, banking, and insurance, etc. Present value provides us with an estimated amount to be spent today to have an investment worth a certain amount of money at a specific point in the future. Present value is also called a discounted value. It is an indicator for investors that whatever money he will receive today can earn a return in the future. With the help of present value, method investors calculate the present value of a firm’s expected cash flow to decide if a stock is worth to invest today or not.

The formula for calculating PV is shown below

PV = CF/ (1+r)n

Here ‘CF’ is future cash flow, ‘r’ is a discounted rate of return and ‘n’ is the number of periods or year.

Example

Let’s say that you have been promised by someone that he will give you 10,000.00 Rs 5 year from today and interest rate is 8% so no we want to know what the present value of 10,000.00 Rs which you will receive in future so,

PV = 10,000/ (1+0.08)5

PV = 6805.83 (To the nearest Decimal)

So present-day value of Rs 10,000.00 is Rs 6805.83
