Answer: False

Explanation:

Bond Price Volatility does indeed have a positive relationship with term to Maturity because the longer the term to Maturity, the more the bond can be affected by interest rates which will lead to price changes.

However, Bond Price Volatility has an Indirect relationship with Coupon rates. The higher the Coupon rate, the lower the volatility because interest rates affect bonds that are paying lower coupons more than they do high ones. Having a higher coupon bond means that price does not change as much due to interest rates.

monitta

Answer:

The total amount of excess amortization for Austin’s 25% investment in Gainsville is $30,000.

Explanation:

total proportions from building, equipment and franchises

= building proportion over 10 years + equipment proportion over 5 years + franchises proportion over 8 years

= ($ 500,000 - $ 400,000)/(10) + (1,300,000 - 1,000,000)/(5) + ($ 400,000-$0)/(8)

= $100,000/10 + $300,000/5 + $400,000/8

= $10,000 + $60,000 + $50,000

=$120,000

Excess Amortization = 25%(total proportions from building, equipment and franchises)

= 25%($120,000)

= $30,000

Therefore, the total amount of excess amortization for Austin’s 25% investment in Gainsville is $30,000.

If the interest rate rises in the United States relative to other nations, then in the foreign exchange market the demand for d

34kurt

Answer:

B. increases; decreases

Explanation:

Foreign exchange market can be defined as type of market in which the currency of one country is converted into that of another country.

For example, the conversion of dollars of the United States of America can be converted into naira (Nigeria) at the foreign exchange market.

Efficient market school is the market school which argues that forward exchange rates do the best possible job for forecasting future spot exchange rates, so investing in exchange rate forecasting services would be a waste of time because it is impossible to have a consistent alpha generation on a risk adjusted excess returns basis as market prices are only affected by new informations.

The efficient market school also known as the efficient market hypothesis (EMH) is a hypothesis that states that asset (share) prices reflect all information and it is very much impossible to consistently beat the market.

Also, forward exchange rates are exchange rates controlling foreign exchange transactions at a specific future date or time.

An interest rate can be defined as an amount of money that is charged as a percentage of the total amount borrowed from an individual or a financial institution.

Generally, if the interest rate rises in the United States relative to other nations, then in the foreign exchange market the demand for dollars increases and the supply of dollars decreases because of the high value of the dollar compared to the other currency.

A monopolist faces a demand curve given by: P = 105 – 3Q, where P is the price of the good and Q is the quantity demanded. The m

geniusboy [140]

Answer: 15

Explanation:

For profit to be maximized by a monopolist, the marginal revenue and marginal cost must be gotten.

P= 105-3Q

MC= 15

Since total revenue is price × quantity, TR= P×Q = (105-3Q)Q

= 105Q-3Q^2

MR= 105-6Q

Since we've gotten marginal revenue and marginal cost, we equate both together.

MR=MC

105-6Q = 15

6Q = 105-15

6Q=90

Divide both side by 6

6Q/6 = 90/6

Q= 15

The quantity that will maximise profit is 15
