Answer:

Equilibrium wage is $12

Equilibrium number of workers is: 800

Explanation:

Because in equilibrium, the price in this case, wage should be the same for the demand and for the supply you can equal both equations:

w=20-(1/100)L ; w=4+(1/100)L

20-(1/100)L=4+(1/100)L

Then, you should get L by algebra:

L(-1/100-1/100)=4-20

L(-2/100)=-16

L=1600/2

L=800

The equilibrium number of workers is 800

Then you replace this answer in either the supply or demand equation:

w=4+(1/100)*800

w=4+8

w=12

The equilibrium wage is: $12

Suppose Ford Motor Company issues a five year bond with a face value of $5,000 that pays an annual coupon payment of $150.
blondinia [14]

Answer:

interest rate =  15%

value of the bond will decrease

Explanation:

given data

face value = $5,000

time = 5 year

annual coupon payment = $150

solution

we get here interest rate on the borrowed funds that will be as

interest rate = \frac{annual\ coupon}{face\ value/time}  × 100

put here value we get

interest rate =  \frac{150}{\frac{5000}{5} }  × 100

interest rate =  15%

and

when bond issued at interest rate =  3 %

but market interest rate 4%

so seller will reduce price of bond less than the face value

because we will look for atleast 4% payout when bond matures

so value of the bond will decrease

The yearly rate of inflation in car prices over the 8 years that Dave bought his new car for $8,400 is <u>5.1%</u>.

<h3>What is inflation?</h3>

N (# of periods) = 8 years

I/Y (Interest per year) = 5.1%

PV = 8,396.31 or $8,400

Total Interest $4,477.49
