Answer:
d) He earned a lower interest rate than he expected
Explanation:
Data provided in the question
Invested amount ten years ago = $1,000
Expected amount = $1,800
Today amount = $1,680
Based on the above information,
Since the bond is based on the floating rate not the fixed rate that results in the value of the investment to $1,800
And, the today amount is $1,680 i.e. less than the expected amount so the internet rate should be less as compared with the expected rate
hence, correct option is d.
Phyllis' RATE (percentage) of return is 7 percent
<u>Explanation:</u>
Data provided in the question:
Purchase price for each share = $50
Dividend received = $1 per share
worth of shares at the end of year = $52.50
Thus, total return on the share = dividend received plus worth of sahres at the end of year minus purchase price
= $1 plus $52.50 minus $50 = $3.5
Therfore, rate of return = [ total return on the shares by purchase price ] into 100%
= [$3.5 by $50] inot 100 percent
= 7 percent
hence, the option with 7 percent will be the correct answer.

Explanation:
To weaken the conclusion, the answer will emphasize on why Baurisia will not soon become an importer of grain.
Here, in this case if importing meat is cheaper than importing grain, then Baurisia is likely to satisfy the demand for meat by becoming an importer of meat, weakening the conclusion that Baurisia will soon become an importer of grain.
<em>Therefore , It is more economical for Baurisians to import meat than grain, if true, most seriously weakens the argument.</em>
