Gnesinka [82]3 years ago

Answer: 9.25%

Explanation:

Risk free rate, Rf = 5% = 0.05

We then subtract the risk free rate of 5% from the expected date of return on market portfolio of 10%. This will be:

= 10% - 5% = 5%

Beta = 0.85

Required return will now be:

= Rf + (Rm-Rf) x Beta

= 5% + (5% × 0.85)

= 5% + 4.25%

= 9.25%

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

36.83 years

16.85 years

$63,710.88

$ 71,490.43  

Explanation:

We can use the nper  formula in excel  to compute the doubling time for the capital real GDP of both countries

=nper(rate,pmt,-pv,fv)

FV is the future real GDP which $28,900*2=$57,800 for France while that of Korea is $25,400 ($12,700*2)

PV is the present real GDP

rate is the economic growth rate of 4.2% in Korea and 1.9% in France

France=nper(1.9%,0,-28900,57800)= 36.83  

Korea=nper(4.2%,0,-12700,25400)= 16.85  

In 2045 ,which is 42 years from now the real GDP are shown thus:

=fv(rate,nper,pmt,-pv)=fv(1.9%,42,0,-28900)=$63,710.88  

=fv(rate,nper,pmt,-pv)=fv(4.2%,42,0,-12700)=$ 71,490.43

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

a.

Net Exports 2015  are  - $471.4 billion.

b.

Net Exports 2016 are  - $552.1 billion.

Explanation:

The net exports for a country is the difference between the value of exports and the value of imports of a country over a certain period of time. The amount of net exports can be wither positive or negative depending upon the value of exports being in excess of the value of imports or not. The formula for net exports is,

Net Exports = Value of Exports - Value of Imports

a.

Net Exports for 2015 = 2344  -  2815.4

Net Exports for 2015 =   - $471.4 billion

b.

Net Exports for 2016 = 2372.7  -  2924.8

Net Exports for 2016 =  - $552.1 billion

Hokey Min's Kleen Karpet cleaned 75 rugs in October, consuming the following resources: Labor: Solvent Machine Rental: 520 hours
mezya [45]

Answer:

0.0075 rugs per dollar

Explanation:

(b)

Total labor cost:

= 520 hours × $15 per hour

= $7,800

Total solvent cost:

= 100 gallons × $5 per gallon

= $500

Total machine rental cost:

= 22 days × $75 per day

= $1,650

Multi-factor productivity:

= Number of rugs ÷ (Total labor cost + Total solvent cost + Total machine rental cost)

= 75 ÷ ($7,800 + $500 + $1,650)

= 75 ÷ $9,950

= 0.0075 rugs per dollar

Reserves decrease if the Federal Reserve?a. raises the discount rate or auctions more credit. b. raises the discount rate but no
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

D. lowers the discount rate but not if it auctions more credit

Explanation:

Discount rate adjustment and Federal Reserve's auction have the following effects on reserves.

Discount rate adjustment: a <em>higher discount rate</em> will encourage investment in the US economy, thus leading to <em>increased reserves</em> as investment inflows increase.

On the other hand, a <em>lower discount rate</em> encourages investment outflow into other jurisdictions with higher yields, <em>thus reducing reserves</em>.

Auction: <em>auctioning more credit</em> will result in the movement of investment flows into the Federal Reserve (<em>an increase in reserves</em>) as investors invest in auctions. Vice versa.

Therefore, a mix of lower discount rate and not auctioning more credit will result in lower reserves.
