Answer:

Real GDP (2014 price) = $ 250

Explanation:

GDP is the total value (PxQ) of goods & services, produced by an economy during a period of time. Real GDP is the value at constant base year prices.

Given [2015] : Fish Quantity =  5 , Computer Chip Quantity =  20

Base Year [2014] price : Fish = $10 , Computer Chip = $10

2015 Real GDP at 2014 base year price = Price 2014 x Quantity 2015

= (Fish PXQ) + (Computer Chip PXQ)

= (10 x 5) + (10 x 20)

= 50 + 200

= $ 250

A municipal bond carries a coupon of 6.75% and is trading at par. What is the equivalent taxable yield to a taxpayer in a combin
Bingel [31]

Answer:

10.23%

Explanation:

Formula for computation of equivalent taxable yield is r = rm/1-t. Where the tax rate is t, rm is Yield on municipal bond and r is Tax equivalent yield

r = rm/1-t

r = 6.75% / 1 - 34%

r = 6.75% / 0.66%

r = 10.22727272727273%

r = 10.23%

So, the equivalent taxable yield to a taxpayer in a combined federal plus state 34% tax bracket is 10.23%.

A stock has an expected return of 15.1 percent, the risk-free rate is 5.95 percent, and the market risk premium is 7.8 percent.
horsena [70]

Answer:

1.17%

Explanation:

Expected return is 15.1 %

Risk free rate is 5.95 %

Market risk premium is 7.8%

Therefore the beta can be calculated as follows

Expected return= risk free rate + (beta×market risk premium)

15.1%= 5.95% + (beta × 7.8%)

15.1%-5.95%= 7.8% beta

9.15%= 7.8% beta

beta= 9.15%/7.8%

beta= 1.17%
