Answer:

a. 1.27%

b. 15.24%

c. 16.35%

Explanation:

a. What is the monthly return on this investment vehicle?

The formula for the value of a Perpetuity is;

Value = Payment/ rate

Rate = Payment/ Value

Rate = 1,450/114,000

= 0.0127

= 1.27%

b. What is the APR?

APR is the annual rate. The above figure is the monthly rate.

APR = Monthly rate * 12

= 1.27 * 12

= 15.24%

c. What is the effective annual return?

Effective annual return = [1 + (APR/n)]^n – 1

n is the number of compounding periods which is 12 here for monthly compounding.

= [1 + (15.24%/12)]^12– 1

= 16.35%

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

A demand curve (almost) always has a negative slope. As a product gets more expensive, the amount of people willing to buy that product decreases. So if the product gets cheaper, the more people are willing to purchase it.

The opposite happens with the supply curve, as the price of a product increases, the more companies are willing to sell that product.
