In March 2015, Daniela Motor Financing (DMF), offered some securities for sale to the public. Under the terms of the deal, DMF p

romised to repay the owner of one of these securities $2,000 in March 2040, but investors would receive nothing until then. Investors paid DMF $740 for each of these securities; so they gave up $740 in March 2015, for the promise of a $2,000 payment 25 years later.
Required:
a. Assuming you purchased the bond for $740, what rate of return would you earn if you held the bond for 25 years until it matured with a value $2,000?
b. Suppose under the terms of the bond you could redeem the bond in 2023. DMF agreed to pay an annual interest rate of 1.4 percent until that date. How much would the bond be worth at that time?
c. In 2023, instead of cashing in the bond for its then current value, you decide to hold the bond until it matures in 2040. What annual rate of return will you earn over the last 17 years?

Answer:

a. 4.06%

b. $827.06

c. 5.33%

Explanation:

a. Assuming you purchased the bond for $740, what rate of return would you earn if you held the bond for 25 years until it matured with a value $2,000?

Rate of return = [(Promised payment / Bond purchase price)^(1 / 25)] - 1 = [(2,000 / 740)^(1/25)] - 1 = 1.0406 = 0.0406 = 4.06%

Therefore, the rate of return that you would earn is 4.06%.

b. Suppose under the terms of the bond you could redeem the bond in 2023. DMF agreed to pay an annual interest rate of 1.4 percent until that date. How much would the bond be worth at that time?

Since 2015 to 2023 is 8 years, the worth of the bond after 8 years at 1.4 percent can be computed as follows:

Worth after 8 years = Bond purchase price * (1 + r)^n

Where;

r = annual interest rate = 1.40%, or 0.014

n = number years after = 8

Therefore, we have:

Worth after 8 years = 740 * (1 + 0.014)^8 = $827.06

c. In 2023, instead of cashing in the bond for its then current value, you decide to hold the bond until it matures in 2040. What annual rate of return will you earn over the last 17 years?

Return in last 17 years = [(Bond purchase price / Worth after 8 years)^(1/17)] - 1 = [(2,000 / 827.06)^(1/17)] - 1 = 1.0533 - 1 = 0.0533 = 5.33%

Answer:

The answer is B. -97.7.

Explanation:

As the question gives us the spot rate, the interest rates of two countries, We can apply the covered interest parity to calculate the 90-day forward exchange rate JPY/AUD from which 90-day forward points can be derived.

F = S x ( 1+ Rjpy) / ( 1+ Raud); in which Rjpy denoted as JPY interest rate ( 0.15% per annum) while Raud is AUD interest rate ( 4.95% per annum).

F = 82.42 x (1+ 0.15% x 90/360) / ( 1 + 4.95% x 90/360) = 81.443

=> The 90-day forward points is : 100 x ( F-S) = 100 x ( 81.443 - 82.42) = -97.7

Century Real Estate’s primary broker is John Kerr. John is licensed as the broker of that company and he is licensed as a broker
fomenos

Answer:

The broker is doing two different jobs; so it is okay to have two different licenses.

Explanation:

In this case, since the broker is doing two different jobs then it is okay for him to have two different licenses. In a hypothetical case that the individual Broker was doing the same job role for two different companies then that would be considered a form of conflict of interest and may cause problems with both firms in the future. Since this is not the case, then he should not have any problem.
