Answer:

7.43%

Explanation:

Where the debt is publicly traded , the cost of debt is equal to the yield to maturity

Approximate yield to maturity = [coupon +(face value - market price )/ number of years to maturity ]/ [{face value + market price]/2]*100

Face value - 2000

Market price - 1905

years to maturity= 30 years

Coupon =( 6.9%*2000)/ 2 = 69

Workings

[69 + (2000-1905)/30] / [(2000+1905]/2 *100)

([69+3.17]/[(3905]/2*100)

(72.17/1952) * 100 = 3.70

Annual yield = 3.7*2= 7.4%

7.4 % being an approximate yield value , the closest option is 7.43%

Imagine you borrow $1,100 from your roommate, agreeing to pay her back $1,100 plus 7 percent nominal interest in one year. Assum
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Dollar amount that you have to pay =  $1.179,52    

Dollar amount of interest results of real rate = $40,03

Explanation:

First of all, you have to convert the annual interest rate to annual efective rate with the next procedure:

a) transform annual interest rate to monthly interest rate:

Monthly interest= (7%/12) = 0,58%

b) Now you have to convert to  annual efective rate

Annual effective : =((1+0,58%)^(12))- 1 = 7,23%

Now that you has this rate, you can calculate how much money you have to pay at the end of the year with the formula of future value:

FV= amount monye borrowed *(( 1+7,23%)^(1))

FV $1.100 *(1+7,23)

FV=  $1.179,52    

Secondly, you need to have to do the same  procedure with the inflation

FV= amount monye borrowed *(( 1+3,59%)^(1))

FV $1.100 *(1+3,59%)

FV=  $1.139,49

Now if you have to make the next operation and find the difference between the amount of the value that you have to pay to your friend and substract the calculous

amount of the interest payment is the result of the real rate

$1.179,52 - $1.139,49 =  $40,03

Susan can pick 4 pounds of coffee beans in an hour or gather 2 pounds of nuts. Tom can pick 2 pounds of coffee beans in an hour
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

$96 per day

Explanation:

Competitive advantage refers to producing or doing something more efficiently than others. Susan has a competitive advantage in picking coffee beans as she can pick 4 pounds of coffee beans in an hour as compared to nuts which she can only pick 2 in an hour. She also has an advantage in picking coffee beans over Tom who can only pick 2 pounds of coffee beans while taking the same time as Susan do for 4 pounds.

Tom, on the other hand, has a competitive advantage in picking nuts as he can pick twice the amount of nuts than Susan can pick in an hour.

If both were to specialize in their competitive advantage,

  • Susan can pick, 4 × 6 = 24 pounds of coffee beans per day
  • Tom can pick, 4 × 6 = 24 pounds of nuts per day

So, if they sell their produces at the world market, they can collectively earn a total of $96 per day.

  • Total Earning = 24 pounds coffee beans × $2 + 24 pounds of nuts × $2 = $96
