faust18 [17]

Answer:

The question is not complete, below is the complete question:

Suppose that you open a mutual fund account with a deposit of 500 dollars. 5 months later, the fund balance is 600 dollars, and you withdraw 216 dollars. A year after the account was opened, your balance is X dollars. If the dollar weighted and time weighted rates of return were the same, what is the rate of return? (Assume simple interest for the dollar weighted calculation.) Answer should be a percent!!!

Answer:

The rate of return is 48% on deposited fund.

Explanation:

The rate of return on investment is the percentage increase on an amount invested for a particular period of time, and to calculate this, we will use the simple interest formula:

I = P × R × T

Where:

P = principal = $500

R = rate in decimal ( %rate/100)

T = time = 5 months = 5/12 years

I = interest = Principal - final balance = 600 - 500 = $100

∴ 100 = 500 × R/100 × 5/12

100 = \frac{2500R}{1200}

120,000 = 2500R

∴ R = 120,000 ÷ 2500 = 48%

Therefore rate of return (R) = 48%

For a clearer understanding of the concept of interests, let us calculate for the balance after one year (X) as shown below:

I = P×R×T

T = 1 because, X is the balance after one year.

I = 500 × 48/100 × 1

I = $240

therefore the final amount after one year = interest + principal

= 240 + 500 = 740

but we were told that $216 was withdrawn at 5 months, hence the balance after one year = 740 - 216 = $524

One-year Treasury securities yield 4%. The market anticipates that 1-year from now 1-year Treasury securities will yield 2.1%. I
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

3.05%

Explanation:

According to Pure Expectation Theory, the future short term interest rates are actually the forward rates.

Mathematically,

(1 + r2,0)^2 = (1 + r1,0)^1 * (1 + r1,1)^1

Here,

r2,0 is the rate of interest for 2 year treasury security from today

r1,0 is the rate of the interest for 1 year treasury security from today

r1,1 is the rate of the interest for 2 year treasury security from Year 1

By Putting Values, we have:

(1 + r2,0)^2 = (1 + 0.04)^1 * (1 + 0.021)^1

(1 + r2,0)^2 = 1.06184

By taking square-root on both sides, we have:

(1 + r2,0) = 1.0305

r2,0 = 3.05%

suter [353]

Answer: B. No. Imposing a price control below the equilibrium price in a market causes the quantity of the good available to consumers to fall because sellers will supply a smaller​ quantity, thereby causing some consumers to go without food that they would have been able to buy in the absence of the price control.

Explanation:

If price controls are introduced below the equilibrium price in the market, farmers or sellers will supply less to the market because they will not be incentivized to produce more seeing as they are not making what they should be making.

This, coupled with increased demand on account of food being cheaper, will lead to shortages which would mean that those that could have been able to afford the food at the equilibrium price would not be able to access food leading to even worse food shortages.

Some recent financial statements for Smolira Golf Corp. follow. SMOLIRA GOLF CORP. 2017 and 2018 Balance Sheets Assets Liabiliti
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

the requirements are missing, so I looked for a similar question:

a. Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities

2017 = $62,976 / $50,555 = 1.25

2018 =  $67,600 / $57,000  = 1.19

b. Quick ratio = (current assets - inventory) / current liabilities

2017 = ($62,976 - $26,042) / $50,555 = 0.73

2018 = ($67,600 - $27,500) / $57,000  = 0.70

c. Cash ratio = cash / current liabilities

2017 =  $24,086 / $50,555 = 0.48

2018 = $24,500 / $57,000 = 0.43

d. Total asset turnover = sales / average total assets

2018 = $373,473 / [($391,671 + $430,000) / 2] = 0.91

e. Inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / average inventory

2018 = $254,500 / [($26,042 + $27,500) / 2] = 9.51

f. Receivables turnover = sales / average accounts receivable

2018 = $373,473 / [($12,848 + $15,600) / 2] = 26.26

g. Profit margin = net profit /  total sales

2018 = $54,319 / $373,473 = 14.54%

h. Return on assets = net income / average total assets

2018 = $54,319 / [($391,671 + $430,000) / 2] = 13.22%

i. Return on equity = net income / average equity

2018 = $54,319 / [($281,116+ $311,435) / 2] = 18.33%

MrMuchimi

Answer:

11.68 years

Explanation:

For computing the number of years first we have to applied the NPER formula i.e to be shown in the attachment below:

Given that,  

Present value = $11,000

Future value = $19,000

Rate of interest = 6.5%

PMT = $0

The formula is shown below:

= NPER(Rate;PMT;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after applying the above formula, the number of years is 8.68

Now after 3 years, it would be

= 8.68 + 3

= 11.68 years
