The most likely result from a layoff of factory workers in a town is that the unemployment rate will rise, at least temporarily. This is assuming the factory is in the US and all workers are full time. Other government services might also see an increase, such as food stamps, job training services, etc.

Stells [14]

Answer:

the required rate of return for Barker's investor is 10.17%

Explanation:

First, We have to calcualte the CAPM

(Capital Assets Pricing Model)

$Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)$

risk free = 0.02

premium market = (market rate - risk free) 0.047

beta(non diversifiable risk) = 1.1

$Ke= 0.02 + 1.1 (0.047)$

Ke 0.07170

now we add the inflation premium:

0.0717 + 0.03 = 0.1017 = 10.17%

In a closed economy, the values for GDP, consumption spending, investment spending, transfer payments, and taxes are as fo

Oliga [24]

Answer: Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

National Savings is divided into two parts, private savings and public savings.

Private Savings = GDP - Taxes + Transfer payments - Consumption Spending

= Y - T + TR - C

= 12 - 3 + 2 - 9

= $ 2 trillion

Public Savings = Taxes - Government Spending - Transfer payments

= 3 - 0 - 2

= $1 trillion

∴ Option (C) is correct.

Private saving = $2 trillion and public saving = $1 trillion.

Bond Yields and Rates of Return A 30-year, 10% semiannual coupon bond with a par value of $1,000 may be called in 4 years at a c

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The bond's yield to maturity is 9.45% using Excel to get exact values, and 9.59% using approximate method.

Explanation:

We can calculate is using 2 ways, using Excel to get the exact percentage or with approximate methods, calculating the semi-annual Yield to Maturity using the following formula

$YTM_{sm} =\cfrac{PMT+\cfrac{FV-PV}n}{\cfrac{FV+PV}2}$

And from there we can calculate the Yield to Maturity just by multiplying the semi-annual one by 2.

Identifying the given information.

We have a period of 30 years, so for the semiannual bond we have $n=2(30) = 60$ periods.

The face value, FV, is $1000, the coupon rate is 0.10, thus we can use them to find the interest per period PMT.

$PMT=0.10 \times \cfrac{1000}{2}\\PMT=\$ 50$

The current price of the bond, PV is $1050.

Replacing the values on the semiannual Yield to Maturity

$YTM_{sm} =\cfrac{PMT+\cfrac{FV-PV}n}{\cfrac{FV+PV}2}$

$YTM_{sm}=\cfrac{50+\cfrac{1000-1050}{60}}{\cfrac{1000+1050}{2}}$

Simplifying we get

$YTM_{sm}=4.797\%\\$

Finding the Yield to Maturity.

We can just multiply by 2 to get the Yield to Maturity from our previous result and rounding it to 2 decimals we get

$YTM = 2 YTM_{sm}\\YTM=9.59\%$

Alternatively we can use Excel and write:

RATE(n, PMT, PV, FV)*2

That is

RATE(60,50,1050,1000)*2

And we will get the exact Yield to maturity 9.49%
