Answer: 7.24%
Explanation:
From the question, we are told that:
3 years treasury securities have an interest rate = 1.92%
10 years treasury security has an interest rate = 5.62%
Let the 7 year treasury security interest in 3 years be represented by z.
Based on the expectation theory
( 1+1.92%)^3 × (1 + z%)^7 = (1 + 5.62%)^10
(1+0.0192)^3 × (1 + z%)^7 = (1 + 0.0562)^10
(1.0192)^3 (1 + z%)^7 = (1.0562)^10
1.05871(1 + z%)^7 = 1.72767
Divide both side by 1.05871
(1 + z%)^7 = 1.72767/1.05871
(1 + z%)^7= 1.6319
1 + z% = 1.6319^1/7
1 + z% = 1.6319^0.1429
1 + z% = 1.0724
z% = 1.0724 - 1
z% = 0.0724
We then convert the decimal to percentage
z = 7.24%
The market believes that 7-year Treasury securities will be yielding 7.24% in 3 years .
Answer:
$2914
Explanation:
The following steps would be taken to determine the answer
1. Calculate depreciation expense given the initial information
2. calculate the accumulated depreciation by the second year. Accumulated depreciation is sum of depreciation expense
3. subtract the accumulated depreciation from the cost price of the asset. This would give the book value
4. calculate the depreciation expense using the new information and the book value
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
($9,920 - $1240) / 5 = $1736
Accumulated depreciation = 1736 x 2 = $3472
Book value at the beginning of 2021 = 9920 - 3472 = $6448
Depreciation expense in 2021 = (6448 - 620) / 2 = $2914
Answer:
Total PV= $46,728.79
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flow:
Cf1= $8,000
Cf4= $16,000
Cf8= $20,000
Cf10= $25,000
Discount rate= 6%
To calculate the present value, we need to use the following formula on each cash flow:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
Cf1= 8,000/(1.06^1)= 7,547.17
Cf4= 16,000/(1.06^4)= 12,673.50
Cf8= 20,000/(1.06^8)= 12,548.25
Cf10= 25,000/(1.06^10)= 13,959.87
Total PV= $46,728.79
Distillation is a process that can separate a mixture, composed of two or more components, by using selective evaporation and condensation. In this process is important to have the components with different boiling points, otherwise it's not possible to separate.
That means, that a good separation can be achieved if the boiling points have a large difference.
