What is the present value of $5,000 due in ten years assuming money grows according to compound interest and the annual effectiv
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

$ 3,085

Explanation:

Given that;

The present value(PV) ------ ???

Future  payment (F) ----  $5,000

The annual effective rate are 4%, 5% and 5.5% respectively, which can be illustrated as;

r = 0.04, 0.05 and 0.055 respectively.

The present value  formula is given as:

PV=\frac{F}{(1+r)^n}

PV=\frac{5000}{(1+0.04)^3(1+0.05)^2(1+0.055)^5}

PV = 5000 × (1.04)⁻³(1.05)⁻²(1.055)⁻⁵

= $ 3,084.814759

≅ $ 3,085

Katie Kwasi’s utility function is U(x1, x2) = 2(ln x1) + x2. Given her current income and the current relative prices, she consu
aniked [119]

Answer:

Katie Kwasi's Utility Function

The units of x1 that she will consume after the change in income is:

= 40 units of x1

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Katie Kwasi’s utility function, U(x1, x2) = 2(ln x1) + x2

Current consumption = 10 units of x1 and 15 units of x2

When her income doubles, with prices staying constant, Katie will consume:

= 2(2 * 10 of x1) + 15 of x2

= 40 units of x1 + 15 units of x2

Therefore, she will consume 40 units of x1 and 15 units of x2

b) The above function expresses mathematically Katie's utility to be a function of the units of x1 and x2 that she can consume, given her income constraint.  If her income doubles, Katie will consume double units of x1 and the same units of x2 as she was consuming before the change in income.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The chosen option (considering enrollment costs and opportunity cost) is:

b) College course.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Costs/Benefits

                           College Course          Community Course

Cost                              $2,600                         $1,390

Opportunity costs         -2,080                          2,080

Net costs                         $520                        $3,470

Distance to course      0.40 miles                    16 miles

                                  (walking distance)      (driving distance)

Timing of course          Weekday                     Weekend

Number of meetings    16                                 8

b) With the College course option, you will earn $2,080 ($260 * 8) weekdays to offset part of the enrollment cost.  With the Community course option, $2,080 will be lost in opportunity cost, thereby increasing the total costs incurred.  These costs are apart from the driving costs associated with traveling 16 miles to the Community Course at the local library.

inessss [21]

Explanation:

Calculation to determine Determine the present value of the par value of the bonds.

Discount rate =8%/2

Discount rate= 4%

Present value factor of 20 periods at 4%= ( 1 / 1.04^20 )

Present value factor of 20 periods at 4%=0.4564

Using this formula

Present value of the par value of the bond = Future value of the bond x Present value factor =

Let plug in the formula

Present value of the par value of the bond=$50,000 x 0.4564

Present value of the par value of the bond = $22,820

Therefore the present value of the par value of the bonds is $22,820
