Cash payment for interest = $2,450

No amortization of discounts or premiums

December 31:

Semiannual interest rate = 3.5% (7%/2)

Interest Expense = $2,450 ($70,000 * 3.5%)

Cash payment for interest = $2,450 ($70,000 * 3.5%)

December 31, 2015:

Semiannual interest rate = 3.5% (7%/2)

Interest Expense = $2,562.24 (($63,948 + 107.92) * 4%)

Amortization of bonds discounts = $112.24 ($2,562.24 - $2,450)

Cash payment for interest = $2,450 ($70,000 * 3.5%)

Suppose a large country experiences economic growth which results in a reduced willingness to trade. The country’s terms of trad

eimsori [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": improve; rise.

Explanation:

Terms of Trade measures the efficiency of a country's trade. It is a ratio which compares the exports of a country with its imports. It is calculated by dividing the export value by the import value, and by multiplying the result by one hundred (100). A terms of trade figure higher than 100, means a country exporting goods at a higher value than its imports.

Given the case that there is no willingness to trade in an economy after a growth, the most possible scenario to take place is that the trade terms will improve as a result of the decrease in the demand of imports and assuming the level of exports keeps at the constant level that allowed the economic growth or if it even rises.

This made the children in the orphanages walk at the age of 3 to 4 instead of 1 year old or earlier.
