Answer: 12.5 %

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the simple interest formula:  

I = p x r x t  

Where:  

I = interest (investment after interests - principal; 12000-8000=4000)

P = Principal Amount (initial invest)  

r = Interest Rate (decimal form)  

t= time  

Replacing with the values given  

4,000= 8,000 (x) 4

Solving for x :

4,000= 32,000x

4,000/ 32,000 =x

x= 0.125

Since the interest rate is in decimal form, we have to multiply it by 100 to obtain the percentage.

0.125 x 100 = 12.5 %

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Abe and Bea each have some money to invest in a CD (Certificate of Deposit). Abe has $5,000 and Bea has $20,000. Both are intere
hjlf

Answer:

Abe = $17.5

Bae = $57.5

Explanation:

Abe's principle = $5,000

Bea's principle = $ 20,000

Abe individual investment yield at 0.41% = (5010-5000) = $10

Bae's individual investment yield at ) 0.50%= (20000-20050) $50

Combined investment yield at 6 % = (25,075 - (20,000+5000) = $75

Extra interest yield = (75-(50+10) = $15

The extra interest yield of $15 should be shared equally among Abe and Bae as a result of joint effort

= 15/2 - $7.5

Therefore , the $75 interest is shared as below

Abe = $10 (interest on individual principle)+$7.5 = $17.5

Bae = $50 (interest on individual principle)+$7.5 = $57.5

Suppose Ford Motor Company issues a five year bond with a face value of $5,000 that pays an annual coupon payment of $150.
blondinia [14]

Answer:

interest rate =  15%

value of the bond will decrease

Explanation:

given data

face value = $5,000

time = 5 year

annual coupon payment = $150

solution

we get here interest rate on the borrowed funds that will be as

interest rate = \frac{annual\ coupon}{face\ value/time}  × 100

put here value we get

interest rate =  \frac{150}{\frac{5000}{5} }  × 100

interest rate =  15%

and

when bond issued at interest rate =  3 %

but market interest rate 4%

so seller will reduce price of bond less than the face value

because we will look for atleast 4% payout when bond matures

so value of the bond will decrease

g Price changes from year to year are not proportional, and consumers respond to these changes by altering their spending patter
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

d. substitution bias.

Explanation:

Price changes from year to year are not proportional, and consumers respond to these changes by altering their spending patterns. The problem this creates for inflation calculations is called substitution bias.

A problem with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) arises from the singular fact that, when the price level of a product becomes relatively less expensive or lower, consumers tend to buy more quantity of the product and consequently, a lesser quantity of goods that are relatively more expensive.

Hence, their spending pattern changes with respect to the prices but it's not completely adjusted with the Consumer Price Index (CPI), thus, making the inflation rate to differ because of the problem of substitution bias.
