Answer:

13.88%

Explanation:

According to the fisher effect

(1 + nominal rate) = (1 + real rate) x (1+ inflation rate)

= (1.095) x (1.04) = 1.1388

(1 + nominal rate) = 1.1388

Nominal rate = 1.1388 - 1 = 0.1388 = 13.88%

Answer:

Pitch

Explanation:

Enrico has trouble differentiating between a tuba's sound and a piccolo's sound. Although a piccolo generates sound waves that are much briefer, quicker than a tuba, he has trouble tracking the variations in the pitch of such sounds.

For music, a note's pitch indicates the note's high or low. It is measured for physics in a Hertz unit. A note that vibrates at 261 Hz is induced by pulsing sound waves at 261 times per second.

viktelen [127]

Answer:

E. Invest in mutual funds.

Explanation:

Individual investors tend to have relatively small portfolios and are usually unable to realize economies of size. The best strategy is to pool funds with other small investors and allow professional managers to invest the funds. Here, a fund manager is hired to invest the cash the investors have contributed, and the fund manager's goal depends on the type of fund; a fixed-income fund manager, for example, would strive to provide the highest yield at the lowest risk.

An asset was acquired on October 1, 2021, for $78,000 with an estimated five-year life and $13,000 residual value. The company u

trasher [3.6K]

Based on the information given the gain or loss if the asset was sold on March 31, 2024 is $6,000 gain.

Depreciation per units= (Original cost - Residual value) ÷ (Estimated production units)

Depreciation per units= ($78,000 - $13,000) ÷ 20,000 units

Depreciation per units= $65,000 ÷ 20,000 units

Depreciation per units= $3.25 per units

Accumulated depreciation=(500 units × $3.25)+( 3,000 units × $3.25)+(3,500 units × $3.25)+( 1,000 units × $3.25)

Accumulated depreciation= $1,625 + $9,750 + $11,375 + $3,250

Accumulated depreciation= $26,000

Book value= Acquired value of an asset - Accumulated depreciation

Book value= $78,000 - $26,000

Book value= $52,000

Gain or Loss= Sale value - Book value

Gain or Loss= $58,000 - $52,000

Gain or Loss= $6,000 gain

Inconclusion the gain or loss if the asset was sold on March 31, 2024 is $6,000 gain.

slava [35]

Answer:

4.93%

Explanation:

We use the Rate formula shown in the spreadsheet for this question

The time period is represented in the NPER.

Provided that,

Present value = $1,000 × 105% = $1,050

Assuming figure - Future value or Face value = $1,000

PMT = 1,000 × 5.3% ÷ 2 = $26.5

NPER = 25 years - 2 years = 23 years × 2 = 46 years

The formula is shown below:

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after solving this, the yield to maturity is 4.93%
