Because the main goal of high-stakes testing is to upgrade the performance of poorly achieving students, low-income and ethnic minority children are <span>especially likely to be exposed to narrowly focused, regimented teaching.
They do this to them because Children from low-income family tend to not have an additional guideline from their parents because they tend to take two or more job.</span>
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
Given that,
Principal = P = $2000
As we know that
Future value (FV) = P × (1 + R)^n
here,
R = Rate of interest,
N = no of years
Now
A) N = 5, R = 5% = 0.05
FV = $2,000 × (1.05)^5
= $2,553
The Interest earned is
= $2,553 - $2,000
= $553
B) N = 10, R = 5% = 0.05
FV = $2,000 × (1.05)^10
= $3,258
The Interest earned is
= $3,258 - $2,000
= $1,258
C) N = 5, R = 10% = 0.10
FV = $2,000 × (1.10)^5
= $3,221
D) Option A
As in the part B the time period is 10 years as compared with the part A i.e. 5 years having the interest rate same
Also the cumulative interest would be greather than double as compared with part A
Answer: The answer is True.
Explanation: The Buyer Decision process has 5 phases and they are as follows:
1. Need recognition phase, where the buyer recognizes that they have a need to fill.
2. Information search phase, where the buyer seeks information on the best options to meet their needs.
3. Alternative evaluation phase, where a buyer evaluates the alternative enterprises that can best meet their needs.
4. The purchasing phase, where a buyer makes the decision to purchase the product or service of the best alternative, based on the evaluation in phase 3.
5. Post-purchase behavior phase where the buyer will either be happy with the product or service or will regret buying the product or service. Often, the buyer will advice other people to either buy or avoid buying that product or service, based on their experience.
Answer:
A - If a bond sells at a discount, the yield to maturity is greater than the current yield
Explanation:
Yield to maturity is the expected return if the bond is held till maturity. Current yiled is the return if the bond is sold today. There is an evident relationship between yield to maturity (TYM) and the current yield.
“When a bond's market price is above par, which is known as a premium bond, its current yield and YTM are lower than its coupon rate. Conversely, when a bond sells for less than par, which is known as a discount bond, its current yield and YTM are higher than the coupon rate. Only on occasions when a bond sells for its exact par value are all three rates identical” (Bloomenthal, 2020).
According to the above statements, options C, B and D are eliminated. This leaves option A (If a bond sells at a discount, the yield to maturity is greater than the current yield) as the correct answer. This is true because YTM is calculated on purchase price rather than par value, if the purchase price is less than par value, the YTM will be greater than the current yield.
