If Congress ends an investment tax credit that used to subsidize domestic investment, how would this affect the market for loana
marin [14]

Answer: Demand will fall, Interest rates will fall

Explanation:

The investment tax credit would have encouraged more companies to seek loanable funds in order to embark on investment opportunities because they would be taxed less. This increase in demand in the market for loanable funds would have led to rates rising to keep up with demand.

If Congress were to end this credit, the incentive to invest and avoid tax would be gone. Companies would therefore demand less loanable funds and with this drop in demand there will be a drop in interest rates as well to entice people to borrow at the lower rates.

Ted purchased an annuity today that will pay $1,000 a month for five years. He received his first monthly payment today. Allison
victus00 [196]

Answer:

The correct option is E,Ted's annuity has a higher present value than Allison's

Explanation:

Both annuities do not have equal amount today as $1000 received today is higher in value terms than $1000 receivable in a month's time since cash receivable earlier is much more valued than the one receivable later.

Ted's annuity is an  annuity due not an ordinary annuity

Allison's annuity is an ordinary annuity not annuity due

Allison's annuity has a lower present value than Ted's and not the other way round.

The only correct statement is option E,since Ted is expected to receive $1000 today, his annuity has a higher present value compared to Allison's
