Answer:

A) 964,286

B) 14

C) 750,000

Explanation:

The portfolios expected return = (0.5 x $70,000) + (0.5 x $200,000) = $35,000 + $100,000 = $135,000

If the risk free investment yields 6% per year, and you require a risk premium of 8%, then the total interest rate that the portfolio yields must be 6% + 8% = 14%

you will be willing to pay: $135,000 / 14% = $964,286 for the portfolio

if the risk premium increase by 4%, then the price of the portfolio will decrease to: $135,000 / 18% = $750,000

Universities are typically organized by departments or colleges such as business, biology, engineering, political science, and s
Goshia [24]

The University creates many departments for different fields of study. This structure has been institutionalized since primitivity to enable group of people with same academic interest, and Long & short term career goals share ideas, knowledge and learn together in same environment. This structure is ideal and supportive and allows for complete focus on one's area of interest. However, this structure is currently being modified and may entirely change in the nearest future as there have being increasing overlaps between courses of different field. Multidisciplinary departments have come in handy with research that help in preserving humanity just as Biology is overlapping with different fields of study to find cure for the ravaging Covid-19.

Bad White [126]

Answer:

a. 324%

b. 16.61%

Explanation:

a. The computation of the APR is the annual rate of interest which is shown below:

= Interest per month × number of months in a year

= 27% × 12 months

= 324%

b. And, the  effective annual rate would be

=  (1 + interest rate per month) ^ Number of months in a year - 1

= (1 + 27%) ^ 12 -1

= 1.27 ^ 12 -1

= 17.6053 - 1

= 16.61%

The money multiplier equals:________.
Serjik [45]

Answer: B. 1/R, where R represents the reserve ratio for all banks in the economy.

Explanation:

The Money Multiplier is the money that Banks generate given a certain RESERVE REQUIREMENT/RATIO.

A Reserve Requirement is money that the Central Bank requires that Banks do not loan out and instead keep in reserve.

For example, if the reserve rate is 10% and a bank has $10 they can only loan out $9.

Assuming they loan out $9 then they created $19 in the economy because their customers still own the original $10 but now they have also given loans of $9. The people who take the loans then deposit it in another bank. That bank would keep $0.90 in reserve and loan out $8.10 meaning that $27.10 now exists in the economy.

The process goes on and on until it gets to $100.

A simpler way to get to the final figure is to divide 1 by the reserve requirement = 1/r which is the money multiplier.

Using the above example, that would be 1/0.1 which is 10.

Multiplying this 10 by the initial deposit of $10 will give you that same $100.
