Answer:
PV= $11,889.05
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future Value (FV)= $13,000
Number fo periods (n)= 3*2= 6 semesters
Interest rate (i)= 0.03/2= 0.015
<u>To calculate the initial deposit, we need to use the following formula:</u>
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 13,000 / (1.015^6)
PV= $11,889.05
Answer:
D. Deflation
Explanation:
"Consumer Price Index" <em>(CPI)</em> measures the changes in the weighted average of prices of a market basket (consisting of consumer goods and services). It tells the<u> cost of living for every consumer. </u>
"Inflation" refers to the sustained increase of prices of goods and services while "deflation" refers to the sustained decrease of prices of goods and services.
In the situation above, the CPI is considered lower than before, thus <u>deflation</u> must have occurred during the second six-year period. It shows a <u>negative inflation rate.</u>
So, this explains the answer.
Answer:
Total amount of dividends paid over the last three years is $20500
Explanation:
The net income of the company is either retained in the company or paid out as dividends. To calculate the value of the ending retained earnings, we use the following formula,
Ending balance = Beginning balance + Net Income - Dividends
We first need to calculate the total net income for the 3 year period. The total net income for the 3 year period is, 3 * 6500 = $19500
Plugging in the available values for the ending and beginning balance of retained earnings and net income, we can calculate the value of total dividends paid for the three year period.
15000 = 16000 + 19500 - Dividends
Dividends = 35500 - 15000
Dividends = $20500
