Answer:

The correct answer for future value if first payment occur today is $449,645.24 and if first payment occur at the end of year is $408,761.13.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Payment (pmt) = $7,990

Rate of interest (r) = 10%

Time (n) = 19 years

So, we can calculate the future value by using following formula:

Future Value ( if payment occurs today) :

FV = Pmt (((1+r)^n - 1) ÷ r) x (1+r)

By putting the value:

= $7,990 ((( 1+ 0.10)^19 -1) ÷ .10) × ( 1 + 0.10)

= $7,990 ( 51.16) × ( 1.10)

= $449,645.24

Future Value ( if payment occurs at the end of year):

FV = Pmt x ((1+r)^n -1)) ÷ r)

= $7,990 ((1 + 0.10)^19 -1) ÷ 0.10)

= $7,990 × 51.16

= $408,761.13

Suppose the rate of return on short-term government securities (perceived to be risk-free) is about 5%. Suppose also that the ex

Natalka [10]

Answer:

The expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%.

Explanation:

The expected rate of return on the market portfolio can be calculated using the following capital asset pricing model (CAPM) formula:

Er = Rf + B[E(Rm) - Rf] ...................... (1)

Where:

Er = Expected rate of return on the market portfolio = ?

Rf = Risk-free rate = 5%

B = Beta = 1

E(Rm) = Market expected rate of return = 14%

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Er = 5 + 1[14 - 5]

Er = 5 + 1[9]

Er = 5 + 9

Er = 14%

Therefore, the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%.
