Evaluate the following investment options by comparing their risk and liquidity: buying a franchise real estate (buying property

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Buying a franchise: For me, this is the riskiest investment, because the success of the business depends on the product or service it sells. If there is no demand for the product or service, the business will go under. This investment is also highly illiquid—in addition, finding someone willing to buy a business is difficult.

Mutual fund: This is the least risky of the three investment options. It is highly liquid compared to buying a franchise or real estate. Mutual fund investors can easily cash in their investments by selling the units they hold in a fund at the current market price.

Real estate: Real estate is a risky investment. First, property prices can fall in a depressed housing market. Second, real estate properties are illiquid. They can’t be sold quickly for a good price, especially in times of recession in the housing market or in the overall economy.

A mutual fund is the best of the three investment options for me, for the following reasons:

I can invest small amounts of money regularly and get higher returns on the investment than I would from a savings account. Also, this is a highly liquid investment. In case of a financial emergency, I can quickly sell my mutual fund units at their current market price.

Real estate is currently both a risky and illiquid investment, because of poor market conditions.

Buying a franchise is not a good option for me, because I don’t plan to go into business. In any case, I don’t have the money to make this investment.

Assume you have $2,000 in a savings account at the beginning of the year and the price level is equal to 100. If the price level

leva [86]

Answer:

$1,667

Explanation:

Given that,

Savings account at the beginning of the year = $2,000

Price level at the beginning of the year = 100

Price level at the end of the year = 120

Price level increases from 100 to 120

Therefore, what was worth $120 earlier, is not worth only $100.

Hence, $120 at the beginning of the year is worth = $100 at the end of the year

$1 at the beginning of the year is worth = ($100 ÷ $120) at the end of the year

Savings of $2,000 at the beginning of the year is worth:

= ($100 ÷ $120) × $2,000

= 0.833 × $2,000

= $1,667

Therefore, the real value of the savings is $1,667.

Answer:

The correct answer is: seasonal discount.

Explanation:

Seasonal discounts are store offerings by which their products are sold at a lower price during specific periods due to changes in seasons. For instance, winter clothing tends to be cheaper during the spring or summer because most people do not purchase them during those seasons. Then, retailers lower the prices to boosts sales.
