If we were able to invest a Gradient = $100 at the end of each year for 7 years at 6% interest (i.e., So at the end of year 1, $
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

We can withdraw an equivalent annuity of  $ 293.658 each year.

Explanation:

We build a scheduled table to know the future value of the gradient investment

Time    Beg        Gradient          Total             Rate Ending

1  $100.00   $100.00  $100.00           0.060   $106.00

2  $106.00   $100.00   $206.00   0.060   $218.36

3  $218.36   $200.00   $418.36   0.060   $443.46

4  $443.46   $300.00   $743.46   0.060   $788.07

5  $788.07   $400.00   $1,188.07   0.060   $1,259.36

6  $1,259.36   $500.00   $1,759.36   0.060   $1,864.92

7  $1,864.92   $600.00   $2,464.92   0.060   $2,612.81

Then, we solve for the equivalent annuity-due:

PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate}(1+rate) = C\\

PV 2,613

time 7

rate 0.06

2612.81 \div \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-7} }{0.06}(1+0.06) = C\\

C  $ 293.658

Itis annuity due as we will going to retire cash in a 6 year period for  seven times. (at each year-end during 6 years thus, annuity-due

An equivalent description of the holding of a receive-floating pay-fixed swap is as follows: A. An exchange of a long position i
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is

A)  An exchange of a long position in a fixed-rate bond for a short position in a floating-rate note.

Explanation:

Swapping a fixed interest for a floating one can occur if the fixed interest tenure in comparison to a floating exchange rate becomes less expensive for the entity who took the loan.

Also executing a swap in interest rates (that is giving up the fixed tenure for the floating tenure) helps to ensure that liabilities are kept at minimum whilst assets are maximised.

It is important to note that the capital remains unmodified.

He schedule below represents the willingness of a typical consumer to pay for wine in a year. Suppose there are 10,000 identical
natta225 [31]

Answer:

a. ​ $30,000.

Explanation:

Willingness to pay is the highest amount a consumer would be willing to pay for a good or service. In this example, the willingness to pay is $50.

Consumer surplus is the difference between price of a product and the willingness to pay.

To calculate the total consumer surplus , refer to the attached image, the consumer surplus is the shaded triangle.

The total consumer surplus = 1/2 base × (height)

The height is the difference between the willingness to pay and the price of the wine = $50 -$30 =$20

The base is the total quantity purchases at $30 =

1/2 × 3 × ($20) = $30

There are 10,000 consumers, therefore consumer surplus =$30,000

I hope my answer helps you.
