Answer:

3%

Explanation:

Data provided as per the question

Nominal interest rate = 100%

Inflation rate = 7%

The computation of the real interest rate is shown below:-

Real interest rate = Nominal interest rate - Inflation rate

= 10% - 7%

= 3%

Therefore, for computing the real interest rate we simply deduct the inflation rate from the nominal interest rate.

Lee Ray bought 250 shares of a mutual fund with a NAV of $13.85. This fund also has a load charge of 7%.
kolezko [41]

Answer: a. $14.9

b. $3725

Explanation:

a. What is the offer price?

This will be calculated as:

= NAV / (1 - load charge %)

= 13.85 / (1 - 7%)

= 13.85 / (1 - 0.07)

= 13.85 / (0.93)

= $14.9

B. What did Lee pay for his investment?

This will be:

= Number of shares bought × Offer price

= 250 × $14.9

= $3725

If Randy invests $15,000 at a 9% interest
WITCHER [35]

It will take 8.04 years for the initial investment of $15000 to become $30,000

What is the future value of an investment?

The future value of $15,000 invested now earning a rate of return of 9% per year is $30,000, it the future equivalent of an amount invested now when the invested amount has earned interest over a specific period of time.

The below future value formula of single cash flow can be used to determine the number of years it takes for the initial investment to double.

FV=PV*(1+r)^N

FV=future value=$30,000

PV=initial investment=$15,000

r=rate of return=9%

N=number of years it takes for the initial investment to double=unknown(assume it is X)

$30,000=$15000*(1+9%)^N

$30000/$15000=(1+9%)^N

2=1.09^N

take log  of both sides

ln(2)=N*ln(1.09)

N=ln(2)/ln(1.09)

N=8.04 years

Suppose that market demand is Q = 660 – 12P and marginal cost is MC = 5. The consumer surplus in a perfectly competitive market
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: 15000; 3750

Explanation:

From the question,

Q = 660 – 12P

MC = 5

The consumer surplus in a perfectly competitive market will be:

P = MC

Therefore, P = 5

Q = 660 - 12P = 660 - 12(5) = 660 - 60 = 600

Consumer surplus = 1/2 × (55 - 5) (600)

= 1/2 × 50 × 600

= 15,000

For monopoly, MR = MC

Total Revenue = P × Q

Since Q= 660 - 12P

P = (660 - Q)/12

TR = P × Q

= (660 - Q)/12 × Q

= (660Q- Q²)/12 × Q

MR = (660 - 2Q)/12

MR = MC

(660 - 2Q)/12 = 5

(660 - 2Q) = 5 × 12

660 - 2Q = 60

2Q = 660 - 60

2Q = 600

Q = 600/2

Q= 300

Since P =(660 - Q)/12

= (660 - 300)/12

= 360/12

= 30

Consumer surplus = 1/2 × (55 - 30) (30)

= 1/2 × 25 × 300

= 3750

Therefore, the answer is 15000; 3750
