Answer:

Invest $990,099 U.S

Explanation:

The interest rate is 2% for US dollars and 1% for euro

The exchange rate is 1.25 dollars to a euro.

To calculate future exchange rate:

1.25dollars (1+exchange rate of us/1+ exchange rate of euro)

= 1.25(1.02/1.01)

= 1.2625

Approximately 1.26

After a year they will be getting .26 million dollars.

They need to invest something close to this amount 1.2/1.02

Therefore option b is the best answer

Is Gold a Good Store of Value?

For long periods of time, yes, gold is an excellent store of value.

Until 1971, the U.S. was on the gold standard. This meant that the price of gold was fixed at $35 per troy ounce. Since that time however, the price of gold has increased by about 8% per year, more than twice the rate of inflation, and much more than bank interest rates.

This doesn't mean that there haven't been ups and downs. Between 1980–2000, the price of gold declined considerably.

However, with governments printing more and more money due to the coronavirus and pension crises, it seems likely that gold will continue to hold its value well.

Last year mike bought 100 shares of dallas corporation common stock for $53 per share. during the year he received dividends of
Pepsi [2]
Mike brought 100 shares costing $53 each.
Total costs of shares= 100*53
=$5300

He got dividends of $1.45 per share. A dividend is money that is earnt back from a share.
Total dividend amount = 1.45*100
=$145

I'm assuming that Mike sold his shares at the end of the year. He sells for $60 each.
Total sales amount=60*100
=$6000

The rate of return in this instance can be defined as the amount of money made back from a share.

Rate of return= total earnings/ costs

Total costs= $5300
Total earnings=$6145

6145/5300=1.1594
=15.9%

Hope this helps! :)
