Answer: The correct answer is "B. Zimbabwe".

Explanation: GDP growth is crucial for an economy, since an increase in it reflects an increase in economic activity. If economic activity picks up, it means that unemployment tends to decrease and that per capita income increases.

In the case of Zimbabwe, population growth is far superior to GDP growth, therefore this makes economic growth much more difficult since there are more people per capita income is diminished.

Country Alpha has 15 thousand acres of land and 45 thousand laborers, whereas Country Beta has 100 thousand acres of land and 20
Monica [59]

Answer: b. good B; good A

Explanation:

According to the Heckscher-Ohlin model, a country should export the good that is has a relative abundance in and import the good it has relative scarcity in.

Find out labor to land ratio of both countries:

Country Alpha = 45 / 15 = 3

Country Beta = 200 / 100 = 2

Country Alpha has 3 labor units per acre

Country Beta has 2 labor units per acre

Country Alpha therefore has more labor abundance and should export the labor intensive good which is good A which means <u>Country B will import A</u>.

Country Beta should <u>export more land intensive good which is good B. </u>

The risk-free yield curve is flat at 6% per annum. What is the value of an FRA where the holder receives LIBOR at the rate of 9%
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

c. $8.63

Explanation:

Missing word <em>"The forward LIBOR rate is 7%. All rates are compounded semiannually.  A. $8.88 , B. $9.12 , C. $8.63 , D. $9.02"</em>

Principal = $1000, FRA Rate = 9 % per annum, LIBOR after 2 years = 7 % per annum, Compounding Frequency: Semi-Annual, Risk-Free Rate = 6 % per annum

The FRA matures 2 years or 24 months from now. Further, the Interest Rate that the FRA hedges will create an interest expense only at the end of the LIBOR loan period which is an additional 6 months after the 24 month period.

Hence, Exchange of Interest Expense at the end of 30 Months = (FRA Rate - LIBOR) x Principal (calculated on a semi-annual basis)

= (0.045 - 0.035) * 1000

= $10

Current Value of FRA = Present Value of Interest Expense at the end of the 30 Months Period

= 10 / [1+(0.06/2)]^(30/6)

= $8.6261

= $8.63

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

d. even if Ichiro was only slightly at fault.

Explanation:

If Ichiro is suing Heather for negligence, but he himself is found to have negiglent as well, his possibilities of winning the case are less even if he was only slightly at fault.

This is because the fact that he was negligent as well reduces his condition of victim, and makes him an active participant in the accident. In other words, if Ichiro is found negligent, it means that the accident and his subsequent injuries were also his fault.
