Answer:

24 years

Explanation:

Since Manny's savings account is yielding a 3% compound interest, he can use the rule of 72 to determine how much time it will take for his money to double:

years to double = 72 / interest rate  = 72 / 3 = 24 years

The rule of 72 applies to any investment that yields compound interest.

At the beginning of the month, you owned $8,000 of General Dynamics, $7,000 of Starbucks, and $5,000 of Nike. The monthly return
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

= $406.6

Explanation:

To calculate return of portfolio we first calculate weight of each asset

this can be done by finding total investment and then dividing each asset by total investment.

Total investment = 8000 + 7000 + 5000 = $20,000

General Dynamics     8000/20000 = 0.4 = W1

Starbucks                    7000/20000 = 0.35 = W2

Nike                             5000/20000 = 0.25 = W3

Now for portfolio return we can use the formula

P(r) = W1 * (Return on W1 asset) + W2 * (Return on W2 asset) + W3 * (Return on W3 asset)

So,

P(r) = 0.4 * (0.0680) + 0.35 * (-0.0152) + 0.25 * (-0.0062)

This gives us

Total Return % = 0.02033 or 2.033%

Simply multiply this cumulative weight to total portfolio worth

Total Return in $ = 0.02033 * 20000  = $406.6

Hope that helps.

You buy a lottery ticket to a lottery that costs $10 per ticket. There are only 100 tickets available to be sold in this lottery
Eduardwww [97]

Answer: The expected loss is $2.3

Explanation:

Total number of tickets to be sold = 100 tickets

one $450 prize, the expected gain = 450 x (1/100)  = $4.5

two $110 prizes, the expected gain = 110 x (2/100) = $2.2

four $25 prizes. the expected gain = 25 x (4/100) = $1

Expected gain (loss) = Total expected gain - Cost of the ticket

                                  = (4.5 + 2.2 + 1 ) - 10

                                  = (2.3)

The expected loss is $2.3

Assume the small-country model is applicable. If the world price of the product is $6 and an import quota of 400 units is impose
algol13

Answer:

Equilibrium price = $6

Total quantity in the market would be > 400 units ( unchanged )

Explanation:

Applying small=country model

world price of product = $6

import quota = 400 units

The Equilibrium price in Marketopia would be $6 and the total quantity available in Marketopia would > 400 units

This is because in a small country assumption model, the total imports made by any country is insignificant to the Total quantity of the products available in the market therefore it has no effect on the price of the products even if when the imports are stopped by the country
