Cindy has been working for 8 years, and she’s built up a huge emergency fund -- $45,000, which would be 6 months of her salary.

She’s hoping to earn a bit more interest than she currently is with that $45,000 just sitting in her traditional bank’s savings account. Which account would you recommend? Why?

Answer with Explanation:

Following are some types of account investments that are better for emergency funds and the return on these investment varies depending upon the risk born by the investors:

  • Current Account Investments
  • Commodity Investments
  • Mutual Funds

If the inflation rate is below the return paid on the current account then it could be a better investment option as the money doesn't loose its value over time.

If the inflation rate is higher than the return paid on the current account then it is better to invest in commodities like gold, petroleum products, etc, that are often termed as speculative investments.

If the investor is risk seeking person, then it is better to invest in mutual funds as the return on such investments is higher because of the higher risk that the investor bears.

When communicating a complex idea, what is most important?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
Both A and C are almost required to communicate a complex idea. A. pulls the person into actually listening and C makes your idea comprehensible. If I had to go with one or the other, I would emphasize A since it makes certain that the person pays attention. However, putting into consideration that your teacher would likely not want that answer, I would instead go with C.

A bond has a 7.5% annual coupon rate with 4 years to maturity and pays annual coupon. par value is $1000
AveGali [126]

Answer:

1.1 Inflow (Coupon payment ) = $1000 * 7.5% = $75

  Year     Inflows    Pvf at 5%     Present value

      1            75        0.952381     71.43

      2            75       0.907029    68.03

      3            75       0.863838     64.79

      4            75       0.822702     61.70

      4           1000    0.822702     822.70

   Total                                       1,088.65

Price of Bond, when yield to maturity is 5% = $1088.65

1.2   Year     Inflows    Pvf at 5.2%     Present value

           1            75          0.95057           71.29

          2            75          0.9035839        67.77

          3            75          0.85892             64.42

          4            75          0.816464            61.23  

          4          1000        0.816464            816.46

Total                                                           1,081.18

Price of Bond, when yield to maturity is 5.2% =$1081.18

1.3  Change in price of Bond = (Decrease in price of bond / price of bond ) * 100

= $7.47 / 1088.65 *100

= 0.69%

Change in price of Bond when yield increases by 0.2%( i.e Decrease in price of bond)

= $1088.65 - $ 1081.18

= $7.47

1.4   Year    Inflows    Pvf at 5%       P. value    Year*P. value

        1          75          0.9523809    71.43            71.43

        2         75          0.907029       68.03           136.05

        3         75          0.863838        64.79           194.36

        4         75          0.822702        61.70            246.81

        4        1000       0.822702       822.70         3,290.81

     Total                                           1,088.65        3,939.47

Modified duration = Bond duration / ( 1+YTM)

= 3.6187 / ( 1+0.05)

= 3.446

Bond Duration = Sum of (PV of inflows) / Sum of (Year*PV of inflows)

= $3,939.47 / $1088.65

= $3.6187

1.5 % Change in price of bond = (-1 * Modified duration * % change in YTM in term of basis point)

= ( -1 * 3.446 * 0.2)

= -0.69 %
