Answer:

the bond's price elasticity = - 0.67

Explanation:

present bond value = $1100

previous bond value = $900

change in bond value = $1100 - $900 = $200

present bond percentage = 8%

previous bond percentage = 12%

% change in bond value = 8% - 12% = - 4%

Bond price elasticity = \frac{change  in bond value}{previous bond value}/\frac{change in percentage}{previous percentage}

                                  = \frac{200}{900} / \frac{-4}{12}

                                  = \frac{2}{9} * -3

                                  = - 0.67

It is possible for an economy to increase its production of computers and, at the same time, to increase its production of cars
Olin [163]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d.

Explanation:

A production possibility curve shows the maximum possible combination of two goods that can be produced using the given resources. Points below the curve show attainable but inefficient bundles as all the resources are not being utilized. The points on the curve show efficient bundle.

On the curve, we cannot increase the production of one good without decreasing the production of others. But an economy can increase the production of both the good if it moves from an inefficient point below the curve to a point on the curve. This can be done by utilizing the resources efficiently.

You win the lottery and must decide how to take the payout. Use a 10​% discount rate. What is the present value of $ 12 comma 00
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

PV= $45,489.44

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Discount rate= 10%

Cash flow= $12,000

Number of years= 5

First, we need to calculate future value. We will use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual cash flow

FV= {12,000*[(1.1^5) - 1]} / 0.1

FV= $73,261.2

Now, the present value:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 73,261.2/1.1^5

PV= $45,489.44
