Answer:

$917.99

Explanation:

BP = Sum of discounted annual coupon payment + discounted face value

Coupon = 1000 × 0.05 = $50

The bond is AA reted so we use the 7% yiled

Sum of coupons

50/1.07)^1 +50/(1.07)² + 50/(1.07)³ + 50/ (1.07)^4 + 50/ (1.07)^5

=$205

Discounted face value =1000/ 1.07^5

=$712.98

BP = 205 + 712.99

    =$917.99

Answer:

$917.996

Explanation:

First, we calculate price:

Price = 5% * 1000 = $50.

At the fifth year, Price = $1000 + $50 = $1050

The price of the Corporate bond is given as:

50/(1+.07) + 50/(1+.07)² + 50/(1+.07)³ + 50/(1+.07)⁴ + 1050/(1+.07)^5

= 917.9960512810481

=$917.996 ---- Approximated

Year 1 PV = 91,743.12

Year 2 PV =126,251.99

Year 3 PV =  154,436.70  

Explanation:

<em>The present value of future sum is the amount that ought to be invested today at interest rate compounded annually to equal the sum at the end of a particular period.</em>

PV - present value

FV - Future value

r- interest rate

n- number of years

Year 1 PV = 100,000× 1.09^(-1) =91,743.12

Year 2 PV = 150,000× 1.09^(-2) =126,251.99

Year 3 PV = 200,000× 1.09^(-3) =  154,436.70

Your parents will retire in 26 years. They currently have $220,000 saved, and they think they will need $1,950,000 at retirement
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Annual rate of interest is 9%

Explanation:

The annual rate of interest is computed using the excel formula of Rate as:

=Rate(nper,pmt,pv,fv,type)

where

nper is number of years which is 26 years

Pmt is monthly payment which is 0

pv is present value which is -$220,000

fv is future value which is $1,950,000

type is 0

So, putting the values above:

=Rate(26,0,-220000,1950000,0)

=9%

Therefore, the rate of interest is 9%

The Fed has decided to expand the money supply, leading to lower interest rates. As a partner in a tech start-up, you react to t
Alona [7]

Answer:

A, B and D

Explanation:

Expanding the money supply is an exercise of expansionary monetary policy.

This decision will first allow our tech startup to acquire cheaper loans and expand our operations, this expansion in operations will result in new employment opportunities and hence as a result, unemployment will be reduced assuming this is a general trend in the economy.

This decision also directly reflects an increased investment and hence the GDP on the whole and the investment part of GDP would both increase,

GDP = C + I + G + (X - M), where I = investment.

This change in macro economy will increase aggregate demand due to expansionary effects. Increase in imports is not conclusive as it may or may not happen depending upon the demand state.

Hope this helps.
