Answer: Micheal will earn an interest of $600 in the first year based on  nominal interest rates.

Since we need to compute the interest paid out at the end of year 1, we use the following formula in order to find the interest

SI = P * N * R

where

SI = Simple interest

P = Principal or initial amount invested

N = Number of years

R = Nominal interest rate

Nominal interest rate refers to the rate quoted on the CD or the rate agreed upon. In this question, the nominal interest rate is 3%.

Substituting the values in the formula above we get,

SI = 20000 * 1 * 0.03

SI = 600

Assume that the risk-free rate of interest is 5% and the expected rate of return on the market is 17%. A share of stock sells fo
Ugo [173]

Answer:

New price (P1) = $72.88

Explanation:

Given:

Risk-free rate of interest (Rf) = 5%

Expected rate of market return (Rm) = 17%

Old price (P0) = $64

Dividend (D) = $2

Beta (β) = 1.0

New price (P1) = ?

Computation of expected rate on return:

Expected rate on return (r) = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)

Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 1.0(17% - 5%)

Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 1.0(12%)

Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 12%

Expected rate on return (r) = 17%

Computation:

Expected rate on return (r) = (D + P1 - P0) / P0

17% = ($2 + P1 - $64) / $64

0.17 = (2 + P1 - $64) / $64

10.88 = P1 - $62

New price (P1) = $72.88
