Answer:
It illustrates that the classical model of the price level best applies to economies with persistently high inflation.
Explanation:
When a very low inflation rate has been constant in an economy, and the money supply increases suddenly, in the short run that change will not immediately increase the inflation rate, but instead it will increase real output.
Classical economists argue that an increase in the money supply will immediately affect the inflation rate, but that theory applies mostly to economies that have a certain level of inflation. For example, for the past 12 years, European nations have been experiencing very low inflation rates, sometimes even negative rates. But during that same period, the European Central Bank has carried on a huge expansionary policy. It favored economic growth, although not as much as expected, but it didn't skyrocket inflation rate as the classical economy model predicted.
Answer:
0.76
Explanation:
So, in this particular question we are given that that there are two assets which are the; [1]. stock fund and [2]. a long-term government and corporate bond fund.
From the question/problem, we have that the Expected ret and the std. dev. for the Stock fund is 18% and 25% respectively. Also, the Expected ret and std. dev. for Bond fund 11% and 18% respectively.
Thus, the investment proportion in the minimum variance portfolio of the bond fund = 1 - [ ( 18%)² - 0.4 × 25% × 18%) ÷ ( 25%)² + (18%)² - 2 × 0.4 × 25% × 18%. = 1 - [0.0144 ÷ 0.0609 ] = 1 - 0.24 = 0.76.
To find simple interest:
Time = Interest/(Principle)(Rate)
Interest is the amount of interest paid
Principle is the amount you lent or borrow
Rate is the percentage of principle charged as interest each year
Time is the years of the loan
P=Principle amount of $1,500
I=Interest amount of $1,200 (Take the new amount of $2,700 and subtract from the principle that is $1,500 which gives you $1,200)
r= as a decimal .15 (15%/100)
t=unknown
T=I/PR
T=1,200/(1,500)(.15)
T=1,200/225
T=5.3 years
It would take Lance roughly 5.3 years
Answer: $100 million
Explanation:
National Income (GDP) for a close nation is calculated as:
= Consumption + Investment + Government spending
Making investment the subject would give us:
Investment = GDP - Consumption - Government spending
= 400 - 150 - 150
= $100 million
