Answer:

Jake should shear the llamas.

Explanation:

Latasha can shear the llamas in 1 hour.

Jake takes 6 hours to shear the llamas.

Latasha earns $120 per hour as a lawyer, while Jake earns $15 per hour as a barber.

Latasha can either earn $120 in an hour or shear a llama.

In 6 hours Jake can earn either shear a llama or earn

= $15\ \times\ 6 

= $90

The opportunity cost of shearing llamas is high for Latasha ($120) while, it is lower for Jake ($90). So, Jake should shear the llamas.

A bond has a modified duration of 8 and a price of 112,955 calculated using an annual effective interest rate of 6.4%. EMAC is t
quester [9]

Answer:

Option E (143) is the appropriate solution.

Explanation:

According to the question,

The modified duration will be:

= \frac{Macaulay \ duration}{(1+yield)}

= 8\times 1.064

= 8.512

The percentage change in price will be:

= -0.6\times 8 \ percent

= -4.8 (%)

Now,

The EMOD will be:

= 112955\times (1-4.8 \ percent)

= 107533.2 ($)

Or,

The EMAC will be:

= 112955\times (\frac{1.064}{1.07} )^{8.512}

= 107675.7 ($)

Hence,

⇒ EMOD-EMAC=107533.2-107675.7

                                  =-142.5

⇒ EMAC-EMOD=143
