Answer:

Ans. The value of investment after 2 years is $3,155.51

Explanation:

Hi, first we need toconvert that 9.80 percent, compounded quarterly into an effective quarterly rate, that is just by dividing by 4, since there are 4 quarters in a year, that is:

r(effective quarterly)= 9.8%/4 =2.45%

Now, since the rate is effective quarterly, the periods (time of the invesmet) has to be in quarters, so we multiply 2 years by 4 and we get 8 quarters.

With all the above information, we can go ahead and use the following formula in order to find the future value of this investment.

FutureValue=PresentValue*(1+r)^{n}

It should all look like this.

FutureValue=2,600*(1+0.0245)^{8}=3,155.51

So, the future value of this investment is $3,155.51

Best of luck.

zhuklara [117]

If a small country wants to buy aircraft from the United States and the United States wants to export its aircraft, the United States may work through WTO in removing preset trade barriers so that the small country can more easily purchase the aircraft.

Explanation:

The World Trade Organisation (WTO) is the only international organisation that follows global trade law. It primarily ensures trading is as easy, consistent and free as possible.

World countries meet in the WTO to discuss whether trade restrictions, such as tariffs, should be reduced. WTO talks are conducted in "rounds" where every nation negotiates a trade development agreement, takes a year or two off again and starts negotiations for a new deal.
