Answer:
Rate of return is 2.52%
Explanation:
Investment in 1925 = $10,000
Portfolio value in 2000 = $64,402.23
Number of years = 2000-1925 = 75 years
Rate of return = ?
Using following formula to calculate rate of return.
A = P x ( 1 + r )^n
64,402.23 = 10,000 x ( 1 + r )^75
64,402.23 / 10,000 = ( 1 + r )^75
6.440223 = ( 1 + r )^75
![\sqrt[75]{6.440223} = \sqrt[75]{(1+ r)^75}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B75%5D%7B6.440223%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B75%5D%7B%281%2B%20r%29%5E75%7D)
1.02515 = 1 + r
r = 1.02515 - 1
r = 0.02515
r = 2.52%
Answer:
18%
Explanation:
Ke = Kul +[Kul+Kd] [D/E]
Unlevered cost of Equity(Kul)= 16%, Cost of Debt(kd) = 8%, Debt = $7500 & Equity = $30,000
ke= 0.16+(0.16-0.08)(7,500/30,000)
ke= 0.16+(0.08)(0.25)
ke= 0.16 + 0.02
ke= 0.18
Ke = 18%
Thus, the firms cost of equity capital is 18%
Answer:
When the price of good y increases by 10% it will result in the quantity demanded of x to increase by (0.6*10) =6%. The current quantity demanded of good x is 10 so a 6% increase will mean the quantity demanded of x will be (1.06*10)= 10.6
Explanation:
The cross elasticity of goods x and y is 0.6, which means that a one percent increase in price of good y will increase the demand for good x by 0.6%, this means that x and y are substitute goods, as when the price of y increases people tend to buy more of x.
When the price of good y increases by 10% it will result in the quantity demanded of x to increase by (0.6*10) =6%. The current quantity demanded of good x is 10 so a 6% increase will mean the quantity demanded of x will be (1.06*10)= 10.6
Answer:
$6 billion
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what consumption spending would initially decrease by
Using this formula
Decrease in Consumption spending=MPC * New taxes on household income
Let plug in the formula
Decrease in Consumption spending=0.6*$10 billion
Decrease in Consumption spending=$6 billion
Therefore consumption spending would initially decrease by $6 billion
