Answer:

-2.83%

Explanation:

Given that

n = 9 years

Present value = 276500

Future value = 213600

Since

FV = PV (1 + r) ^n

213600 = 276500 (1 + r)^9

Therefore

r = (213600/276500)^1/9 - 1

r = (0.7725)^1/9 - 1

r = 0.9717 - 1

r = - 0.0283 or -2.83%

Answer:

The annual rate of return is -2.83%

Explanation:

The annual rate can be calculated from the formula FV=PV*(1+r)^N

Where FV is the future value of the investment

PV is the amount invested which is $276,500

N is 9 years

213600=276,500*(1+r)^9

213600/276500=(1+r)^9

divide index on both sides by 9

(213600/276500)^1/9=1+r

(213600/276500)^1/9-1=r

r=-0.02827109

r=-2.83%

Hence the annual rate of return on the investment is -2.83%, which means the investment depleted by 2.83% from initial invested amount of $276,5000 to $213,600 after nine years

liq [111]

Answer:

c) 11%

Explanation:

The question is to determine the rate of return on Groupong Inc's

The rate of return represents an investment's net gain or net loss calculated over a period of time and usually expressed in terms of the percentage of the initial cost of investment.

The rate of return in this question is calculated as follows:

Rate of Return = (The Dividend for the next year/ the current price of the share) + The Growth rate

The dividend for the next year = current year dividend x (1+r), where r is 3.5

= 2.78 x (1+0.035)

=2.78 x 1.035

= (2.8773/38.3) + 0.035

=0.1101 or 11%
