Answer:

17%

Explanation:

Purchase price of bond = $921.77

Years investment held = n = 7

Coupon rate = C = 15%

Frequency of payment = m = 2

Annual coupon = $1,000 × (0.15/2) = $75.00

Realized Yield = i

Selling price of bond = PB = $961.22

The realized rate of return is approximately 16.6 percent. Using a financial calculator provided an exact yield of 16.625 percent.

The "market clearing price" is most closely associated with
mel-nik [20]

The market clearing price is the price that balances the amount buyers want to buy with the amount sellers want to sell. This price balances the amounts demanded and supplied. The "market clearing price" is most closely associated with market equilibrium, because it exists when a market is clear of shortage and surplus, or is in equilibrium, when the demand curve and supply curve intersect.

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Break-even units = 66.67 units

Explanation:

<em>Break-even point is the level of activity that achieves no profit or loss. At this level profit is zero because the the total revenue is equal to total cost.</em>

<em>The break-even point is calculated as </em>

<em>Units to achieve target profit = (Total general fixed cost for the period + target profit)/ contribution per unit</em>

Contribution per unit = Selling Price - Variable cost

Contribution per unit = 15- (1+3+0.50) = 10.5

Fixed cost = 500 +( 50× 4) = 700

So the units requited to achieve break-even point:

Break-even point =  700/10.5

                            = 66.67 units

siniylev [52]

Answer:

The marginal propensity to save (MPS) is the portion of each extra dollar of a household's income that's saved. MPC is the portion of each extra dollar of a household's income that is consumed or spent. Consumer behavior concerning saving or spending has a very significant impact on the economy as a whole.

for every dollar the government spends, it will create a greater than one dollar change in GDP

1 / 1-MPC or 1 / MPS; increase in spending .: + multiplier; decrease in spending .: - multiplier

Deficit spending is the amount by which spending exceeds revenue over a particular period of time, also called simply deficit.

the fraction of any change in disposable income that is consumed; MPC = change in C / change in DI

Marginal Propensity to Save

Lois has a balance of $970 on a credit card with an APR of 24.2%, compounded monthly. About how much will she save in interest o
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Lois will save $152.51 when she wil transfer her balance.

Explanation:

Amount to be paid in 1 year for original credit card is given as

P_1^{'}=P*(1+r_1)^t

Here P^{'}_1 is the amount to be paid after P is the balance which is 970, r_1 is the APR for first credit card which is 24.2% and t is compounding frequency which is 12 so

P_1^{'}=P*(1+r_1)^t\\P_1^{'}=970*(1+\dfrac{24.2}{12}\%)^{12}\\P_1^{'}=970*(1.0207)^{12}\\P_1^{'}=970*1.2707\\P_1^{'}=\$1232.61

Similarly for the second one the values are calculated as

P_2^{'}=P*(1+r_2)^t\\P_2^{'}=970*(1+\dfrac{10.8}{12}\%)^{12}\\P_2^{'}=970*(1.108)^{12}\\P_2^{'}=970*1.1135\\P_2^{'}=\$1080.10

The differnce of the two values is calculated as

P_1'-P_2'=1232.61-1080.10\\Difference=\$ 152.51

The difference is $152.51 which she could save.
