Answer:

D) Dogs

Answer:

Cheryl's net worth is;

c). $5,000

Explanation:

The net worth is the value of an individual taking into account all the individual's assets and liabilities. It is a holistic view on the value of an individual. It is also used to estimate the value of a company, corporation and even countries. It is one of the standard measures used to gauge an entity's wealth. The net worth can be calculated by taking the difference between assets and liabilities. An asset is anything of economic value that is owned by an entity while a liability is anything of economic value that is owed.

N=A-L

where;

N=net worth

A=assets

L=liabilities

In our case;

N=unknown to be determine

A=Automobile+checking account

Automobile=$10,000 and checking account=$5,000

A=10,000+5,000=$15,000

L=student loan+car loan

student loan=$2,000

car loan=$8,000

L=2,000+8,000=$10,000

replacing;

N=15,000-10,000=$5,000

Cheryl's net worth=$5,000

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

(a) Real Interest Rate   = -1 %

(b) Real Interest Rate   = -2.4 %

Explanation:

Real Interest Rate = (1+ Nominal Interest rate)/(1+Inflation Rate) -1

 (a)Real Interest Rate = (1+0.01)/(1+0.02)-1

                                    = -1 %

 (b) Real Interest Rate = (1+0.005)/(1+0.03) -1

                                      = -2.4 %

Real Interest Rate is an interest rate that has been adjusted to remove the effects of inflation to reflect the real cost of funds to the borrower and the real yield to the lender or to an investor.
