Suppose that you open a mutual fund account with a deposit of 500 dollars. 5 months later, the fund balance is 600 dollars, and you withdraw 216 dollars. A year after the account was opened, your balance is X dollars. If the dollar weighted and time weighted rates of return were the same, what is the rate of return? (Assume simple interest for the dollar weighted calculation.) Answer should be a percent!!!

Answer:

The rate of return is 48% on deposited fund.

Explanation:

The rate of return on investment is the percentage increase on an amount invested for a particular period of time, and to calculate this, we will use the simple interest formula:

I = P × R × T

Where:

P = principal = $500

R = rate in decimal ( %rate/100)

T = time = 5 months = 5/12 years

I = interest = Principal - final balance = 600 - 500 = $100

∴ 100 = 500 × R/100 × 5/12

100 = $\frac{2500R}{1200}$

120,000 = 2500R

∴ R = 120,000 ÷ 2500 = 48%

Therefore rate of return (R) = 48%

For a clearer understanding of the concept of interests, let us calculate for the balance after one year (X) as shown below:

I = P×R×T

T = 1 because, X is the balance after one year.

I = 500 × 48/100 × 1

I = $240

therefore the final amount after one year = interest + principal

= 240 + 500 = 740

but we were told that $216 was withdrawn at 5 months, hence the balance after one year = 740 - 216 = $524

Answer:

current floating exchange rate

Explanation:

Exchange rate is the rate at which one currency will be exchanged with another. For example, 1 United States Dollar is equivalent to 4.24 Poland Zloty as of March 2020.

There are two common types of exchange rates:

1. Floating exchange rate: This is set by the FOREX market, and is based on the current supply and demand of currencies. When demand for a currency is high, its value increases and vice versa.

2. Fixed exchange rate: A fixed or pegged exchange rate is whereby a government entirely determines the rate and value of the currency.

Generally, a floating exchange rate system is used in the global market. This does not mean countries allow their currencies to fluctuate endlessly. The central bank of a country and it's government does intervene and manipulate the currency to make it favorable for them during international trade but it is done in a more indirect manner as opposed to a fixed exchange rate system.
