The idea of international trade is one of the factors that binds the world together. Trade between nations fosters peace and brings about, wealth creation, Cultural diffusion and inclusiveness.

<h3>What is International trade?</h3>

International trade refers to the exchange of goods, services and other commodities between countries of the world.

International trade is possible because, goods and services produced in one country is needed by citizens of other countries.

The idea of international trade is beneficial to both countries involved in such trade. It creates a long supply chain starting from manufacturers, logistics, middle men, and local traders.

This supply chain created benefits both the sellers and the buyers and this creates employment opportunities in both countries.

It is important to note that not everyone within a country may benefit directly from international trade, however, it can be said that everyone will benefit indirectly because the proceeds from such trade affects the GDP of both countries and this brings about prosperity especially when trade is not one sided.

When interest is compounded continuously, the amount of money increases at a rate proportional to the amount S present at time t

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

a) - r=5%: $S=$ 5,136.10$

- r=4%: $S=$ 4,885.61$

- r=3%: $S=$ 4,647.34$

b) - r=5%: t=14 years

- r=4%: t=17 years [/tex]

- r=3%: t=23 years [/tex]

c) The amount obtained is

- Compuonded quarterly: $5,191.83

- Compuonded continously: $5,200.71

The latter is always greater, since the more often it is capitalized, the greater the effect of compound interest and the greater the capital that ends up accumulating.

Explanation:

The rate of accumulation of money is

$dS/dt=rS$

To calculate the amount of money accumulted in a period, we have to rearrange and integrate:

$\int dS/S=\int rdt=r \int dt\\\\ln(S)=C*r*t\\\\S=C*e^{rt}$

When t=0, S=S₀ (the initial capital).

$S=S_0=Ce^{r*0}=Ce^0=C\\\\C=S_0$

Now we have the equation for the capital in function of time:

$S=S_0e^{rt}$

a) For an initial capital of $4000 and for a period of five years, the amount of capital accumulated for this interest rates is:

- r=5%: $S=4000e^{0.05*5}=4000*e^{0.25}= 5,136.10$

- r=4%: $S=4000e^{0.04*5}=4000*e^{0.20}= 4,885.61$

- r=3%: $S=4000e^{0.03*5}=4000*e^{0.15}= 4,647.34$

b) We can express this as

$S=S_0e^{rt}\\\\2S_0=S_0e^{rt}\\\\2=e^{rt}\\\\ln(2)=rt\\\\t=ln(2)/r$

- r=5%: $t=ln(2)/0.05=14$

- r=4%: $t=ln(2)/0.04=17$

- r=3%: $t=ln(2)/0.03= 23$

c) When the interest is compuonded quarterly, the anual period is divided by 4. In 5 years, there are 4*5=20 periods of capitalization. The annual rate r=0.0525 to calculate the interest is also divided by 4:

$S = 4000 (1+(1/4)(0.0525))^{5*4}=4000(1.013125)^{20}\\\\S=4000*1.297958= 5,191.83$

If compuonded continously, we have:

$S=S_0e^{rt}=4000*e^{0.0525*5}=4000*1.3= 5,200.71$

The amount obtained is

- Compuonded quarterly: $5,191.83

- Compuonded continously: $5,200.71

The latter is always greater, since the more often it is capitalized, the greater the effect of compound interest and the greater the capital that ends up accumulating.

One year ago, you purchased a stock at a price of $32.50. The stock pays quarterly dividends of $.40 per share. Today, the stock

frutty [35]

Answer:

The total dollar return per share is 11% or $3.7

Explanation:

Total dollar return = (Selling price- buying price + total dividend)/buying price.

The buying price is 32.50

The selling price= 34.60

The total dividends are 0.4*4=1.6 because in 1 year there will be 4 quarterly dividends.

Now we input these numbers in a formula

(34.60-32.50+1.6)/32.50=0.11

= 11%

In dollar terms the return is

34.60-32.50+1.6=3.7

kvasek [131]

Answer:

-Diego is correct because the loan has to be paid in full by a specific date.

Explanation:

Closed-end-credit is a type of credit where a fixed amount is borrowed and must be repaid in full by the end of a specified period. The amounts to be paid back are the principal and the interests. Sienna took a closed-end-credit because her loan was issued at a go, and she had to repay after 48 months.

Open-end credit is like a revolving fund. The borrower is allowed credit up to a specific limit. Once they make repayments, they can re-access the facility.
