Answer:
266,2 units of capital per worker
Explanation:
The capital growth as stated is compound growth. Since technology and human capital are constant, there is not expected changed in productivity factors relationship, so the formula for compound growth, in this case, is: capital per worker in 3 years' time = capital per worker * (1+ annual rate growth) ^ 3. Computing numbers would be: capital per worker in 3 years' time = 200*(1+10)^3= 266,2
Answer:
r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%
r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%
Explanation:
Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.
The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
- rRF is the risk free rate
- rpM is the market risk premium
Under CAPM, the assumption follows that the beta of the market is always equal to 1.
So, expected return on the stock market will be,
r or expected rate of return - market = 0.06 + 1 * 0.08
r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%
The beta of the stock is given. We calculate the required rate of return on the stock to be,
r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.06 + 1.9 * 0.08
r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%

Answer:
It's best to invest in the second economy
Explanation:
The question does not provide information on the hypothetical economic expectations of the two economies, but as a risk-averse investor, it's a better idea to try to "spread" the risk instead of concentrating it.
In the first economy, conditions might or might not be good. If they are good, returns will be extraordinary because all stocks will provide good returns, but if conditions take a turn for the worse, all stocks prices will fall and the financial consequences will be catastrophic.
In the second economy, results might never be as good as in the first economy, but they also will not ever be as bad. The risk is spread between various stocks, and while some may fall in price, others will rise, and viceversa. For a risk-adverse investor, this a far better option.
Answer:
a. $80,318.70
b. $97,568.57
Explanation:
Here is the full question :
You have just received a windfall from an investment you made in a friend's business. She will be paying you $ 15 comma 555 at the end of this year, $ 31 comma 110 at the end of next year, and $ 46 comma 665 at the end of the year after that (three years from today). The interest rate is 6.7 % per year. a. What is the present value of your windfall? b. What is the future value of your windfall in three years (on the date of the last payment)?
Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows
Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator
Cash flow in year 1 = $ 15,555
Cash flow in year 2 = $31,110
Cash flow in year 3 = $ 46,665
I = 6.7%
Present value = $80,318.70
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r)^n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
$80,318.70(1.067)^3 = $97,568.57
