Answer:

We give our friend 437.5 dollars

Explanation:

We have to discount from 500 dollar the interest over time, as the 500 is the value our friend will return in 4 weeks ( a month) not the amount received Hence:

nominal x discount rate x time = discount

being rate and time in the same metric

rate is annual so we express time in portion of a year

500 x -1.5 x 1/12 = -62,5‬

We have to discount 62.5 dollar from the nominal

nominal less discount = present value

500 - 62.5 = 437.5

Suppose the population of country ABC rises from 40 million to 44 million. If the country's Real GDP rises from $825 billion to
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Population rises from 40 million to 44 million

Country's Real GDP rises from $825 billion to $890 billion during this same period.

Therefore,

This country experiencing a absolute economic growth because of the rise in real GDP.

Initial per capita growth:

= Initial Real GDP ÷ Initial Population

= $825 ÷ 40 million

= $20.625

New per capita growth:

= Increased Real GDP ÷ New Population

= $890 ÷ 44 million

= $20.227

Above calculations clearly shows that there is a decline in the per capita growth.

Hence, there is an absolute economic growth but not per-capita real.

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

-5.95%

Explanation:

A = P(1+r)^n

A is the auction price at which the sculpture was sold = $10,331,500

P is the price the sculpture was purchased = $12,417,500

n is the time interval between the year of sales and year of purchase

10,331,500 = 12,417,500(1+r)^3

(1+r)^3 = 10,331,500/12,417,500

(1+r)^3 = 0.832

1+r = (0.832)^1/3

1+r = 0.9405

r = 0.9405 - 1 = -0.0595 = -5.95%
