Answer:
a. If the interest rate was 8%, how much would you have been prepared to bid for the prize?
this is an ordinary annuity:
annual payment = $9,420,713 / 20 = $471,035.65
number of periods = 19 periods
interest rate = 8%
therefore, the present value annuity factor = 9.6036
the present value of the annuity = $471,035.65 x 9.6036 = $4,523,637.97 ≈ $4,523,638
b. Enhance Reinsurance Company was reported to have offered S4.2 million. Use Excel to find the return that the company was looking for.
using the IRR function in Excel, the return that Enhance was looking for was 9.05%
I think the answer is C but i could be wrong
Answer:
labor force participation rate= 96.2%
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Unemployed people= 19 million
Labor force= 500 million
<u>First, we need to calculate the employed people:</u>
<u></u>
Employed population = 500 - 19= 481 million
<u>Now, to calculate the labor force participation rate, we need to use the following formula:</u>
<u></u>
labor force participation rate= (employed people/labor force)*100
labor force participation rate= (481/500)*100
labor force participation rate= 96.2%

Answer:
Binding
$100
200
200
Shortage
Explanation:
A price ceiling is when the government or an agency of the government sets the maximum price for a good.
A price ceiling is binding when the price ceiling is below the equilibrium price.
To find the equilibrium price, equate qs to qd because at equilibrium, quantity supplied is equal to quantity demanded.
2P = 300 - P
3P = 300
P = 100
Equilibrium price is $100.
$100 > $90. Therefore, price ceiling is binding.
To find quantity supplied, plug in the value of P into the equation for quantity supplied
QS = 2(100) = 200
To find quantity demanded, plug in the value of P into the equation for quantity demanded
QD = 300 - 100 = 200
when price is below equilibrium price, quantity demanded increases while the quantity supplied decreases. This leads to a shortage.
