Answer: True

Explanation:

Productivity is the process of measuring an organization's ability to produce a good or service. While organizations that produce goods can point to the total finished number of products as evidence. It is difficult to improve the service sector's productivity, because of the following;

1. Service industries are labor-intensive

2. Measuring and monitoring service quality are difficult

3. Most service establishments are of small size

4. Using machine technology and labor-saving devices is difficult

An investor borrows an amount at an annual effective interest rate of 5% and will repay all interest and principal in a lump sum
Ghella [55]

Answer:

d. 101

Explanation:

first we must determine the amount of the loan:

PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 3%)²⁰ = $553.68

PV of coupon payments = $40 x 14.877 (PV annuity factor, 3%, 20 periods) = $595.08

Loan amount = $1,148.76

Future value of the loan = $1,148.76 x (1 + 5%)¹⁰ = $1,871.21

You will receive 20 coupon payments of $40 each, which will be reinvested at 2% semiannual rate. You will also receive $1,000 corresponding to the face value of the bond.

Future value of the coupon payments = $40 x 24.297 (FV annuity factor, 2%, 20 periods)] = $971.88

Total money received at the end of the 10 year period = $971.88 + $1,000 = $1,971.88

Gain = $1,971.88 - $1,871.21 = $100.67 ≈ $101
