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%

Answer the question on the basis of the following information. Assume that if the interest rate that businesses must pay to borr
Kay [80]

Answer:

The answer is: C) Investment spending by businesses varies inversely with the interest rate.

Explanation:

This statement is true all the time. When a company evaluates the costs and benefits of an investment, interest rate plays a fundamental part in those calculations. The two basic reasons for that are:

  1. The higher the interest rate a company (or any individual) has to pay for a loan, the harder it is for the company to repay the loan.
  2. The interest rate a bank charges is usually correlated to the opportunity cost of an investment. The higher the interest rates banks charge, the higher the internal rate of return (which is used to calculate the Net Present Value of an investment) will be. This is because banks don´t print money, they take in deposits and then they loan the money the someone else. So if the interest rate the bank charges is high, usually the interest rates the bank pays for the deposits is also high. Instead of investing, a company might just put their money on the bank and earn a better return rate.

Carol and Dave each purchase 100 shares of stock of Burgundy, Inc., a publicly owned corporation, in July for $10,000 each. Caro
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

From the above information, we can deduce that the stock owned by Carol and Dave falls in value by $2,000 I.e ($10,000 - $8,000) ; it is to be noted that Carol solely has realised and recognized loss of $2,000.

Here, one of the cogent factors that determines whether a sale has taken place is if realization has been effected. Here, stock sold by Carol qualifies as a disposition while the decline in the value of stock sold by Dave does not qualify as disposition.

With regards to the foregoing, we can conclude that the federal income tax law treat the decline in the value of the stock differently for Carol and Dave.
