Answer:
fall & $0.5 billion
Explanation:
Base on the scenario been described in the question, we can see that for each one percentage point increase in the interest rate, the level of spending investment is declining by $0.5 billion. For this reason it will make the investment spending to fall by $0.5 billion when the interest rate changes as we have seen in the first interest rate calculated.
Answer:
First National Bank = 14.6%
First United Bank.= = 14.8%
Explanation:
<em>Effective annual rate is the equivalent annual rate o where interest rate is compounded at an interval shorter than a year.</em>
It can be calculated as follows:
EAR = ( (1+r)^(n) -1) × 100
r -interest rate per period
n- number of period
EAR - Effective annual rate
First National Bank
r - interest rate per month = 13.7%/12 = 1.141%
number of period = 12 months
EAR =( (1+011141)^(12) - 1) × 100
= 0.145938395 × 100
= 14.59
= 14.6%
First United Bank.
r- interest rate per quarter - 14%/4 = 3.5% per quarter
n- number of quarters = 4
EAR = ((1+0.035)^(4)- 1) × 100
= 0.147523001 × 100
= 14.8%
Answer: An increase in government spending
Explanation:
Currency appreciation is an increase in the worth of one currency against the value of another currency. Due to the appreciation of a currency, imports get cheaper.
In a small open economy, the appreciation of the real exchange rate can be caused by an increase in government spending as this puts pressure on domestic currency to appreciate, which leads to current account deterioration.
