Answer:

17.4%

Explanation:

original purchase price 1 year ago = $1,044

current market price:

0.06 = {80 + [(1,000 - MV)/13]} /  [(1,000 + MV)/2]

0.06 x [(1,000 + MV)/2] = 80 + [(1,000 - MV)/13]

0.06 x (500 + 0.5MV) = 80 + 76.92 - 0.0769MV

30 + 0.03MV = 156.92 - 0.0769MV

0.1069MV = 126.92

MV = 126.92 / 0.1069 = $1,187.28

total returns during the year = $80 (coupon) + ($1,187.28 - $1,044) = $223.28

nominal return on investment = $223.28 / $1,044 = 21.387%

real return on investment = [(1 + i) / (1 + inflation)] - 1 = [(1 + 0.21387) / (1 + 0.034)] - 1 = 1.174 - 1 = 0.174 = 17.4%

Which of the following is influenced by personal economic choices? Check all that apply.
alexdok [17]
These are factors that influences the personal economic choices that a person will decide:
-the resources you have available
-the money you decide to spend on leisure products
-the amount of money you put into your savings account
-and the manner in which you balance your time between work and leisure
In the answers above, the only choice that I did not check is number 1 because it is not a personal choice that is applied to everyone. resources and money are saved and used for personal choices of a person for leisure and needs.

Mason and Kirsty purchase 30 shares of Apple stock on January 1, 2009 for $72.49 per share. Mason and Kirsty receive $0.36 per s
zmey [24]

Answer:

  • after-tax average annual return = 14.41%
  • after tax dividends per year = $38.88

Explanation:

initial investment = 30 shares x $72.49 per share = $2,174.70

- dividends received per year = 30 shares x $0.36 x 4 (dividends paid every quarter) = $43.20

after tax dividends per year = $43.20 x 90% = $38.88

- long term capital gains = (30 shares x $183 per share) - initial investment =  $5,490 - $2,174.70 = $3,315.30

taxes on long term capital gains = $3,315.30 x 10% = $331.53

To calculate Mason and Kirsty's after tax average annual return (interest rate) we can use the excel spreadsheet =RATE function, where:

  • PV = -2174.70
  • FV = 5490 - 331.53 = 5158.47
  • Pmt = 38.88
  • Nper = 7

=RATE (nper, pmt, pv, [fv])

=RATE (7,38.88,-2174.70,5158.47) = 14.41%
