Mike buys a perpetuity-immediate with varying annual payments. During the first 5 years, the payment is constant and equal to 10

. Beginning in year 6, the payments start to increase. For year 6 and all future years, the payment in that year is K% larger than the payment in the year immediately preceding that year, where K < 9.2. At an annual effective interest rate of 9.2%, the perpetuity has a present value of 167.50. Calculate K.

Answer:

According to the given data we have:

i = 0.092

167.5 = 10a5] at .092 + v^5{10[(1+k)/1.092].....for infinity}

After the 10a5] at .092 component gone from the problem, we have:

128.804 = 10v^{5}[(1+k) + (1+k)^{2}v + (1+k)^{3}v^{2}.....for infinity}

You can turn this into a geometric progression by pulling out

10 * [(1+k)/1.092]...then your left with 1 + (1+k)/1.092 + (1+k)^2/1.092^2....for infinity.

Since the problem says k < .092.. you know that (1+k)/1.092 is eventually going to converge to 0.

Therefore, you'll have 1/(1-(1+k)/1.092) as your geometric sum.

That geometric sum * (10*v^6*(1+K)) then has to equal your constant, 128.804.

After dividing 128.804 by 10*v^6 you get 21.84.

21.84 = (1+k)*[1/(1-(1+k)/1.092)

Solving for (1+k), you get 1.04 so k = .04 or 4%

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf \ C \ is \ the \ correct \ answer \ ! \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

fog(x)=f(g(x))

so it comes

f(g(x))=f(x+1)=4(x+1)^2

<u>so C is the correct answer</u>

Consider a simple example of moral hazard. Suppose that Woodrow goes into a casino to make one bet a day. The casino is very bas
Neko [114]

Answer:

The expected value of the safe bet equal $0

Step-by-step explanation:

If  

S=\left\{s_1,s_2,...,s_n\right\}

is a finite numeric sample space and

P(X=s_k)=p_k for k=1, 2,..., n

is its probability distribution, then the expected value of the distribution is defined as

E(X)=s_1P(X=s_1)+s_2P(X=s_2)+...+s_nP(X=s_n)X)

What is the expected value of the safe bet?

In the safe bet we have only two possible outcomes: head or tail. Woodrow wins $100 with head and “wins” $-100 with tail So the sample space of incomes in one bet is

S = {100,-100}

Since the coin is supposed to be fair,  

P(X=100)=0.5

P(X=-100)=0.5

and the expected value is

E(X) = 100*0.5 - 100*0.5 = 0
