If the equilibrium interest rate in the money market is 5%, then at an interest rate of 2% sellers of interest-bearing financial
expeople1 [14]

Answer: must offer higher

Explanation:

The financial world of investment is inter-correlated and products can sometimes be substitutes for one another. What this means is that if one financial product is not offering enough return on investment or is risky or for any other reason shakes their confidence in it, then investors tend to run to financial products that are perceived as better.

This is why when interest rates are stable and stocks are volatile, stock markets tend to lose value and bond markets sometimes gain value as investors leave the stock market and come to the bond market.

In the scenario described, the interest rate in the money market is 5%. If interest bearing financial assets are only at 2%, investors will leave/ not invest in those interest bearing bonds because the rate is lower. The sellers of such assets will therefore have to make them more attractive by increasing the the interest rates to find willing buyers.

Mr. Isaac is lending Gh₵20000 to Mr. Hayford, to be repaid over five years. Mr. Isaac would like to effect a policy on Mr. Hayfo
Alla [95]

Question:

Mr. Isaac is lending Gh₵20000 to Mr Hayford, to be repaid over five years. Mr Isaac would like to effect a policy on Mr Hayford’s life to cover the loan should Mr Hayford die. Mr Hayford would like to insure Mr Isaac’s life just in case he dies and the beneficiaries of his will insist that the loan be repaid early.

(a)​ What is the extent of insurable interest in each case?

(b) ​Consider any necessary action if the loan was later repaid earlier than anticipated what happens to the policy?

Answer:

To answer the question (a), one must first understand the concept of <em>Insurable Interest.</em>

A policyholder is said to have an insurable interest in a subject matter whenever the subject matter of a contract provides some financial gain to them and would lead to a financial loss if damaged, destroyed, stolen or lost.

For example, if I purchase a car for my use for $10,000, theft of or damage to that car will translate to financial loss to me. Therefore, I have an insurance interest in the car. This qualified me to Insure the car against loss arising from any form of insurable damage, or theft.

In question (a) there are two cases.

<em>Case I - Mr Isaac would like to effect a policy on Mr Hayford’s life to cover the loan should Mr Hayford die.</em>

Mr Isaac, in this case, has full insurable interest on Mr Hayfords life. If Mr Hayford dies,  Mr Isaac will be put in a financial loss to the tune of Gh₵20000.

<em>Case II - Mr Hayford would like to insure Mr Isaac’s life just in case he dies and the beneficiaries of his will insist that the loan be repaid early. </em>

Mr Hayford does an insurable interest on Mr Isaac's life. This insurable interest arises due to the possibility (as given in the question) that Isaacs family have the power to request for the loan earlier than it ought to have been paid.

The insurable interest arises because paying back the loan earlier than anticipated, may put Mr Hayford in financial distress and may lead to financial and economic loss. If the loan is meant for the running of his business, the business may fold up, and he may forfeit all the assets of the business.

In a real-life scenario, this can all be prevented by ensuring that the terms of the loan are documented in a contract which must be ratified by both parties. In this contract, clauses preventing the lender from cutting short the tenure of the loan can be inserted. This is less expensive and easier to administer.

(b) In each of the cases above, if the loan is paid back earlier than anticipated:

i. Under duress from the family: The provision of the policy protecting the interest of Mr. Hayford kicks in and makes good the loss to mitigate it and terminates afterwards.

ii. By volition by Mr Hayford: The policy terminates immediately as the insurable interest he has on Mr Isaac's life becomes extinct.

Cheers!

Which scenarios can be considered effects of Sole Sister Shoe Store choosing to sell dress shoes over sneakers?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

I believe the answer is:

High school athletes stop shopping there.


The inventory of sports socks goes unsold.

High school athletes tend to need the type of shoes that help in their mobility and tend to posses high level of endurance. These characteristics do not exist in Dress shoes. When high school athletes stop buying their shoes on the store, the number of stocks in the inventories tend to stay stagnant since it could not find customers.
