Answer:

It will use a 3% rate

Explanation:

We need to solve for the discount rate which makes the coupon payment and maturity of the similar bond equal their current market value of 1,170.50

This is done using excel goal seek tool:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 50.00 (1,000 x 5%)

time 10 years

<em>rate 0.030011</em>

50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.030011)^{-10} }{0.030011} = PV\\

PV $426.4860

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity   1,000.00

time   10.00

<em> rate  0.030011071</em>

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.030011)^{10} } = PV  

PV   744.01

PV c $426.4860

PV m  $744.0139

Total $1,170.5000

<em>market rate  = 0.030011071 = 3% </em>

The procedure will be to build up the formulas and link the rates to a cell.

and then, click on the total cell and use goal seek changing the rate cell

The key factor is the description of the vehicle, making this case highly solvable.

Progress in crime lab methods and PC innovation are helping the police to find vehicles associated with violations. Because of new forensic devices, even modest bits of a car, or a faint impression from a tire tread, can limit the rundown of suspect vehicles. The police would then be able to cross-reference that data with data in the region and examine a subset of autos. In the given case we have a load of information about the car used which can easily lead to the criminal.

jeka57 [31]

Correct/Complete Question:

The answers to an economy's three central economic problems are determined by the interaction of three forces: economic forces, political forces, and social forces. True or False

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The above forces, economic, political and social determine the answers to the three economic problems and also determines how economic forces operate in an economy. The three economic questions are;

 -  What goods and services should be produced?

 -  How should these goods and services be produced?

 -  Who consumes these goods and services?

Political forces are forces that influence the economic and political stability of the market. Social forces include cultural influences on the economic stability of the market. Economic forces on the other hand are the factors that determine/influence the competitiveness of the market in which a firm operates.

I hope this helps.
