When the interest rate is 10% per year, all of the following are equivalent to $5,000 now except: A) $4,545 one year ago B) $5,5

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

$4,021 two years ago

Explanation:

Given that

The Rate of interest is 10%

And as we know that

PV = FV × (1 + i)^(-n)

And

FV = PV ÷ (1 + i)^n

where,

PV = prsent value,

FV = future value ,

i = interest rate,

n = years

Now

a)

FV = $4,545 × (1.1)

= $4,999.5

b)

PV = $5,500 ÷ (1.1^-1)

= $5,000

c)

FV = $4,021 × (1.1^2)

= $4,865.41

d)

PV = $6,050 × (1.1^-2)

= $5,000

hence, the correct option is c. $4,021

It is wrongly written as $4,012

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

. No, he has not proven he is financially responsible with money previously borrowed.

Explanation:

Dwayne is a high-risk customer.

Most lenders will want to stay away for customers who are perceived as high-risk. A high-risk customer is one whose probability of defaulting on a loan is above the market average.

Dwayne has missed loan repayments in the recent past. Banks interplate this as an indicator that he is highly likely to default on future loan repayments.

For Dwayne to qualify for a loan, he has to improve his credit score. He can do that by prompt repayments of debts. He has to find out why he is missing or getting late in meeting his obligations. Most likely, he is taking loans for the wrong reasons.

Exercise 11-1 Compute the Return on Investment (ROI) [LO11-1] Alyeska Services Company, a division of a major oil company, provi

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

1. Margin = 0.32 or 32%

2. Turnover = $19,000,000 or Operating Asset Turnover = 0.52 or 52%

3. Return on Investment = 0.17 or 17%

Explanation:

Firstly, list out the parameters we were given:

Sales = $19,000,000, Net Operating Income = $6,100,000,

Average Operating Assets = $36,500,000

1. Operating Margin = Net Operating Income / Sales

Operating Margin = 6,100,000 ÷ 19,000,000 = 0.32

Operating Margin = <u>0.32</u> (to 2 decimal places)

Operating Margin = <u>32%</u>

<u />

2. Turnover refers to sales or revenue made during a particular period. In which case turnover is <u>$19,000,000</u>

However, if the turnover referred to is the Operating Asset Turnover, that is calculated below:

Operating Asset Turnover = Sales / Average Operating Assets

Operating Asset Turnover = 19,000,000 ÷ 36,500,000

Operating Asset Turnover = <u>0.52</u> (to 2 decimal places)

Operating Asset Turnover = <u>52%</u>

<u />

3. Return on Investment (ROI) = Net Operating Income / Average Operating Assets

Return on Investment (ROI) = 6,100,000 ÷ 36,500,000

Return on Investment (ROI) = <u>0.17</u> (to 2 decimal places)

Return on Investment (ROI) = <u>17%</u>
