Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Nico invest $2500 at 9% interest rate and $800 at 4% interest rate.

Explanation:

He invests some money at 9%, and $1700 less than that amount at 4 %.

Let Nico invest $x at 9%.

It means he invest $( x-1700) at 4%.

The investments produced a total of $257 interest in 1 yr.

$x\times \frac{9}{100}+(x-1700)\times \frac{4}{100}=257$

$0.09x+(x-1700)0.04=257$

$0.09x+0.04x-68=257$

$0.13x-68=257$

Add 68 on both sides.

$0.13x=257+68$

$0.13x=325$

Divide both sides by 0.13.

$x=2500$

Nico invest $2500 at 9% interest rate.

$x-1700=2500-1700=800$

Nico invest $800 at 4% interest rate.

Therefore Nico invest $2500 at 9% interest rate and $800 at 4% interest rate.

A government bond with a coupon rate of 7% makes semiannual coupon payments on January 15 and July 15 of each year. The Wall Str

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

invoice price (dirty price) = $1,004.13

Explanation:

semi-annual coupon = $1,000 x 7% x 1/2 = $35

clean price = $1,001.25

accrued interest = (Jan. 30 - Jan. 15) x $35 x 1/182 = $2.88

invoice price (dirty price) = clean price + accrued interest = $1,001.25 + $2.88 = $1,004.13

the dirty price or invoice price of a bond includes any accrued interest that the bond may have earned in the period between the last coupon payment and the transaction date.

You wish to earn a return of 13% on each of two stocks, X and Y. Stock X is expected to pay a dividend of $3 in the upcoming yea

Otrada [13]

Answer: D. will be less than the intrinsic value of stock Y

Explanation:

Based on the information given above, the intrinsic value of Stock X will be calculated thus:

D1 = Dividend in next year = $3

g = growth rate = 7%

r = = 13%

Therefore, intrinsic value of Stock X will be:

= D1 / (r-g)

= 3 / (13% - 7%)

= 3/6%

= 3 / 0.06

= $50

Therefore, the intrinsic value of stock X is $50.

Intrinsic value of Stock Y will b calculated thus:

D1 = $4

g = 7%

r = 13%

Intrinsic value of Stock Y will be:

= D1 / (r-g)

= 4 / (13% - 7%)

= 4/6%

= 4 / 0.06

= 66.67

Intrinsic value of Stock Y is $66.67

Therefore, the intrinsic value of Stock X will be less than the intrinsic value of Stock Y
