Answer:

$64,474.20

Explanation:

As for the information provided,

discount rate = 7.25%

First payment will be made at the end of year 1

Discounting factor = \frac{1}{(1+0.0725)^1} = 0.9324

Thus, current value of payment = 28,000 \times 0.9324 = $26,107.20

Discounting factor for receipts =

Year 1 = \frac{1}{(1+0.0725)^1} = 0.9324 = $28,000 \times 0.9324 = 26,107.20

Year 2 = \frac{1}{(1+0.0725)^2} = 0.8694 = 35,000 \times 0.8694 = 30,429

Year 3 = \frac{1}{(1+ 0.0725)^3} = 0.8106 = 42,000 \times 0.8106 = 34,045.20

Therefore, value of contract today = - $26,107.20 + $26,107.20 + $30,429.0 + $34,045.20 = $64,474.20

Andrew [12]

Answer:

$1,025.299

Explanation:

The formula for compound interest is

FV = PV × (1+r)^ n

Where Fv is the future value

Pv is the present value = $1000

r is interest rate = 1/2 %  or 0.5% per year

n is five years

interest is compounded quarterly,  

Interest per quarter = 0.5% /4 = 0.125%  which is 0.00125

n will be 5 years x 4 quarters = 20 periods

Fv= $1000 x (1 +0.00125)^20

Fv =$1000 x(1.00125)^20

Fv= $1000 x 1.025299

Fv = $1,025.299

You are a U.S.-based treasurer with $1,000,000 to invest. The dollar-euro exchange rate is quoted as $1.50 = €1.00 and the dolla
Verdich [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is (B) Buy euro at $1.50/€, buy £ at €1.25/£, sell £ at $2/£

Explanation:

The dollar- euro exchange rate is quoted as $1.50 = €1.00

the dollar-pound exchange rate is quoted at $2.00 = £1.00

To calculate the actual cross rate we use; S(euro divided by pounds) =  S(dollar/pounds) ÷ S(dollar/euro).

Using symbols to denote this, we have S(€/£) = S($/£) / S($/€)

S(€/£) = S(2/1) ÷ S(1.50/1)

= (2 / 1.5)

= €1.33.

Consequently, from this result we now know that the euro is undervalued with respect to pounds under the cross rate being offered by the bank. This implies that you should first buy the euro, convert to pounds, and eventually convert back to dollars, this would enable you make money as an investor.
