Answer:
10%
Explanation:
Use future value formula
Future Value = Present Value ((1+r)^n)
26,600 = 20,000 ((1+r)^3
26,600/20,000 = (1+r)^3
1.33 = (1+r)^3
1.33^1/3 = 1+r
1.0997 = 1+r
1.0997 - 1 = r
r = 0.997 = 9.97% = 10% (rounded of to the nearest whole percentage)
Had to look for the options and here is my answer.
How the Federal Reserve could persuade banks to lend out more of their reserves is by REDUCING THE DISCOUNT RATE. The Federal Reserve is known to be the central bank of the United States which regulates the financial activities of the nation and how this affects their economy. Hope this helps.
Answer: $1051.51
Explanation:
Coupon rate = 10%
Face value = $1,000
Yield to maturity = 8%
Annual coupon will be:
= Face value × Coupon rate
= 1000 × 10%
= 100
Therefore, the price of bond will be:
= Annual coupon × Present value of annuity factor + $1000 × Present value of the discounting factor
= (100 × 2.5771) + (1000*0.7938)
= 257.71 + 793.8
= $1051.51
The price of the bond is $1051.51
Answer:
-2.5
Explanation:
Elasticity of demand measure the responsiveness of demand against the change in price of the product. It shows how much demand changes if there is the change in price.
Change in Quantity = ( S2 - S1 ) / [ ( S2 + S1 )/2 ]
Change in Quantity = ( 800 - 1,000 ) / [ ( 800 + 1,000 )/2 ]
Change in Quantity = -200 / 900
Change in Quantity = -0.2222222
Change in price = ( P2 - P1 ) / [ ( P2 + P1 )/2 ]
Change in price = ( $35 - $32 ) / [ ( $35 + $32 )/2 ]
Change in price = $3 / $33.5
Change in price = 0.090
Elasticity of Supply = Change in Quantity / Change in Price
Elasticity of Supply = -0.2222222 / 0.090 = -2.5
Elasticity of Supply = 0.597 = 0.60
