Answer:

the real rate of interest of  6.39 %

Explanation:

given,

rate of return on your bond  = 11.29 %

the inflation rate  = 4.6 %

real rate of return = ?

rate of return = (\dfrac{1+ return\ rate}{1 + inflation }-1)\times 100

rate of return = (\dfrac{1+ 0.1129 }{1 + 0.046 }-1)\times 100

rate of return = (\dfrac{1+ 0.1129 }{1 + 0.046 }-1)\times 100

rate of return = (\dfrac{1.1129}{1.046 }-1)\times 100

                    = 6.39 %

the real rate of interest of  6.39 %

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Answer:

$215

Explanation:

Eagles product has an EBIT of $400

Its tax rate is 30%

= 30/100

= 0.3

The depreciation is $16

The capital expenditures are $56

The planned increase in net working capital is $25

Therefore, the free cash flow to the firm can be calculated as follows

Free cash flow= EBIT(1-tax)+depreciation-capital expenditures- change in working capital

= 400(1-0.3)+16-56-25

= 400-120+16-56-25

= $215

Hence the free cash flow to the firm is $215

= $0

Contribution Margin for Gloves = $100 - $80

B.Baseball bats = 9,500 × 70% =6,650

Baseball Gloves = 9,500 × 30% = 2,850

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

In a large open economy, if political instability abroad lowers the net capital outflow function, then the real interest rate falls, while the real exchange rate rises and net exports fall. (D)

Explanation:

NX = EXPORTS – IMPORTS

If political instability abroad lowers the net capital outflow function that would mean that NX is reducing, which increasing imports and decreasing exports. This means that domestic goods are relatively more expensive due to a high exchange rate. In terms of the real interest rate, it falls because the demand for financial assets decreases.
