Answer:

B) 50%

Explanation:

Matthew's total return on investment = (current price - original purchase price) / original purchase price

= ($150 - $100) / $100 = $50 / $100 = 0.5 or 50%

To be able to determine the annual rate of return we would need to know when did Mathew purchase the shares.

Friendly's quick loans, inc., offers you "$4.10 for $5.10 or i knock on your door." this means you get $4.10 today and repay $5.
storchak [24]
If it costs $5.10 to get $4.10 from Friendly's then the loanee would pay about 24% which is a pretty high interest rate and presumably the interest rate would decrease with a higher amount loaned as on a larger amount the actual amount of interest earned would still be significant with a lower interest rate.

bogdanovich [222]
There are numerous reasons, things like war, immigration, increased poverty, or things like unpredictable natural disasters. When a hurricane strikes and destroys entire cities and housing it has to be fixed quickly and that is spending that was not planned since you can't expect things like that. Wars often cost much more than what was planned because bad things happen and they need to be fixed. Immigration can lead to an increase in social welfare spending since not all immigrants find a job quickly and establish themselves in the society.
