Answer:

1.30%

15.60%

16.77%

Explanation:

The monthly return is the amount payable monthly divided  by the current price of the investment vehicle.

monthly return=$1500/$115,000=1.30%

Annual percentage return=monthly return*12=1.30% *12=15.60%

Effective annual return=(1+1.30%)^12-1

EAR=1.167651776 -1

EAR=16.77%

By shutting​ down, a firm A. stops receiving revenue and is stuck with its fixed costs. B. can avoid paying taxes on its previou
wel

Answer:

option A

Explanation: A firm cannot avoid paying taxes on previous profits as these profits were earned before the shutting down period and generally the taxes on profits for current period  are paid at a later period. Thus option B is incorrect.

.

Revenue is the total income that a business gets from its normal operations and variable cost is the cost that changes with the level of output. Thus, there will be no revenue and also variable cost.  Hence option C is incorrect.

.

Sunk cost are the costs that cannot be recovered and are already been incurred.So a company can avoid its variable cost by shutting down but not its   sunk cost. Hence option D is incorrect.

.

Fixed costs are the costs that are independent of the level of output. Therefore, a company after shutting down will not receive revenue but will have to bear fixed cost. Hence option A is correct.

If the company were to issue an annual zero-coupon bond with a maturity of 2 years and par value of $1,000, what would be the ar
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Note: <em>The complete question is attached as picture below</em>

1a. The one year spot rate can be calculated using the one year zero bond.

PV * (1 + S1) = FV

1 + S1 = 1000 / 900

S1 = 1.1111 - 1

S1 = 0.1111  

S1 = 11.11%

1b. PV of the 2 year bond = $950

Annual coupon = 1000 * 5% = $50

950 = 50 / (1 + S1) + (50 + 1000) / (1 + S2)^2

950 = 50 / 1.1111 + 1,050 / (1 + S2)^2

1,050/ (1 + S2)^2 = 950 - 45 = 905

(1 + S2)^2 = 1050 / 905

1 + S2 = 1.160221/2

S2 = 7.714%

1c. Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / (1 + 0.07714)^2

Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / 1.1602

Price of the 2 year zero bond = 861.9203586

Price of the 2 year zero bond = $861.92

<span>Symbolic interactionists believe that the social value of the elderly in America decreased when the economy shifted being agricultural to industrial. 
This may be completely true - industrial era means more use of technology, and usually, the elderly aren't that keen on using new technology. This also means that they are less and less relevant when it comes to the social life in America which is always growing and developing.</span>

zloy xaker [14]

Components inc., a maker of vehicle parts, refuses to sell to diy repair inc., a national vehicle service firm. the maker convinces the engine parts company, a competitor, to do the same. this is a group boycott.

Under competition law, a group boycott is a type of secondary boycott, unless two or more competitors in the relevant market agree to deal with an actual or potential competitor of the boycotting firm. Refuse to do business with the company.

Example: The FTC challenged the actions of several groups of competing health care providers, such as physicians, and refused to do business with insurance companies or other purchasers on terms other than those mutually agreed upon. That amounted to a group boycott of the illegal group.
