Answer:

option (D) : 34.05%

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

Computation of Simple rate of return :

Investment = $425,000

Depreciation = (Initial cost - salvage value) ÷ useful life

= $42,500

Net profit = Sales revenue - cash operating expense - Depreciation

= $527,000-$339,800-$42,500

= $144,700

Simple rate of return = Net Profit ÷ Investment

= $144,700 ÷ $425,000

= 34.05%

The price of gold is currently $1,400 per ounce. The forward price for delivery in one year is$1,500. An arbitrageur can borrow
Rashid [163]

Answer:

The arbitrageur should borrow money at 4% per annum since it is cheaper than paying the forward price for delivery

Explanation:

Current price of gold=$1,400 per ounce

Forward price=$1,500

The arbitrageur can either pay the forward price or borrow $1400 and pay the interest of 4% in a year. Consider option 1 paying the forward price of 1500

Option 1

Since there are no additional costs, the total cost for buying the gold=forward price=$1,500

Option 2

If the arbitrageur borrows the 1400 to pay for the gold now, then pay the interest in 1 year;

The total cost=Amount borrowed+interest accrued in 1 year

Total cost=1400+(4%×1400)

1400+((4/100)×1400)

1400+56=$1456

Since there are no additional costs, option 2=$1456

If we compare option 1 to option 2, we notice that option 2 is slightly cheaper than option 1 by $44

(Option 1-Option 2)=(1500-1456)=$44

The arbitrageur should borrow money at 4% per annum since it is cheaper than paying the forward price for delivery

Add:

Income distributions                                             $0.75

Capital gains distributions                                     $1.00

Total return on mutual fund                                   $3.72

Rate of return=total return mutual fund/Opening net asset value

rate of return =$3.72/$17.50
