Answer:

The answer here is that the problem with the question is that the question is a  double-barreled question.

Explanation:

For further clarity on the choice of answer and the question asked. let us talk more on what a double-barreled question is.

A double-barreled question can be refereed to as a a form of trick question that when asked, it usually address more than one issue. However, the answer or reply to such question are expected to be precise and straight forward.

For example, if an individual is being asked a question such as do you still smoke ? If the reply comes as a NO, it means that the responder admits to had been smoking previously however, he has stopped smoking.

Also, if the responder reply is a YES, it means the responder agrees to have always been a smoker and admits to still smoke till date.

So in a way, the response to the double-barreled questions usually dwell in fallacy most of the time.

I hope the explanation helps.

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The correct answer is "32.076%".

Explanation:

Given:

Initial investment,

= $500,000

Cash inflows,

= $500,000

The floatation cost will be:

= 500,000\times 6 \ percent

= 30,000 ($)

The total cost will be:

= Initial \ investment+Floatation \ cost

= 500000+30000

= 530000

hence,

The rate of return will be:

= \frac{Inflows}{Cost} -1

= \frac{700000}{530000} -1

= \frac{700000-530000}{530000}

= 0.32076

= 32.076 (%)
