Answer:

B) production and distribution costs fall with accumulated production experience

Explanation:

A low price may slow down market growth. However, it cannot occur in the market penetration strategy because a market penetration strategy lowers the price to attract customers in a discouraging competitive market. Therefore, option "A" and option "E" is incorrect. As the penetration strategy offers a lower price, therefore, the higher price is nowhere near the option, so "C" is not correct. As the price is low, customers want to buy more, and it is not an inelastic demand. Therefore, the option "D" is wrong also.

As penetration strategy produces the products at a lower price, they can offer low selling prices. It can only happen due to the higher production experience. So, <em>"B"</em> is the right choice.

A 3-year interest rate swap has a level notional amount of $300,000. Each settlement period is one year and the variable rate is
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

(a)0.04317 (b) 3672 which will be paid by the payer to the receiver (c) -399. so, the 399 which will be paid by the receiver to the payer (d) 2659.38

Explanation:

Solution

(a) Swap Rate (R) = (1 - P₃)/(P₁+P₂+P₃)

= (1 – 0.88)/(0.97 + 0.93 + 0.88)

= 0.04317

(b) The payer pays the fixed interest rate and gets the variable interest rate.

Then, the fixed interest rate is known as the  swap rate which is 4.317%.

Now,

The variable rate is the one year spot rate for the first year of the loan. which is r₁ = 1/P₁ -1 = 1/0.97 - 1 = 0.03093

Thus,

The net swap payment becomes (300,000)(0.04317) - (300,000)(0.03093) = 3672 which will be paid by the payer to the receiver.

(c) The payer pays the fixed interest rate and receives the variable interest rate. The fixed interest rate is the swap rate which is 4.317%.

Thus,

The variable rate is the one year spot rate for the second year of the loan is 4.45%.

So,

The net swap payment becomes (300,000)(0.04317) - (300,000)(0.04450) = -399.

Therefore, the 399 which will be paid by the receiver to the payer.

(d) The market value is the present value of expected future cash flows. under this swap, the variable rate has been swapped for the constant swap rate. There is one year left under the swap.

Then,

The expectation is that the swap owner will pay (300,000)(0.04317) and receive (300,000)(0.0525). these payments would be made at the end of one year. Therefore, the market value will be:

{(300,000)(0.0525) - (300,000)(0.04317)}/1.0525 = 2799/1.0525 = 2659.38

Find the effective rate of interest if payments of 300 at the present, 200 at the end of one year, and 100 at the end of two yea
Illusion [34]

Answer:

12.93%

Explanation:

Given that the amount of 300 is invested for 3 years, while the amount of 100 is invested for 2 years and 100 is invested for 1 year.

also amount accumulated in three years = 800

Applying the formula to find the future value we get

300(1+r)^3 + 200(1+r)^2 + 100(1+r) = 800

which can be further simplified to

300r^3+1100r^2+1400r+600=800

where, r is the effective rate of interest which we have to find out

The above equation is cubic in r, so to solve this we can use equation solver. When we put this equation in equation solver we get

r = 0.12926

r ≅ 0.1293

Therefore,  effective rate of interest  = 12.93%
