Answer: 9.04%

Explanation:

1 year rate today = 5% = 0.05

2 years rate today = 7% = 0.07

Maturity of longer bond = 2

The ending return if the 2 years bond are bought will be thesame as the needed return on series of a year bond which will be 1.1449

The market's forecast for 1-year rates 1 year from now will be calculated as:

= 1.05(1+X) = 1.1449

1.05 + 1.05X = 1.1449

1.05X = 1.1449 - 1.05

1.05X = 0.0949

X = 0.0949/1.05

X = 0.090381

X = 9.04%

mel-nik [20]

From the given description, Chip is using an experimental design called (A) matching.

Matching <u>is a type of experimental design where the researcher divide his or her samples into two groups of treatment conditions, which serves to ensure that before the treatment, both groups have the samples with the same characteristics, thus ensuring that the results of the experiment would not be influenced by any confounding variables that the samples have.</u>

Chip is doing this to ensure that samples that have been influenced by other variables which determine their decision to hire are distributed evenly in both the experimental and control group.

swat32

Answer:

6 years

Explanation:

The Payback period calculates how much it takes the amount invested in a project to be recovered from the cumulative cash flow.

Total amount invested =  $500,000 +  $100,000 =  $-600,000

Cash inflow in year 2 =  $100,000

Amount recovered in year 2 = $-600,000 + 100,000 = $-500,000

Cash inflow in year 3 =  $100,000 × 1.1 = 110,000

Amount recovered in year 3=$-500,000 + 110,000 = $-390,000

Cash inflow in year 4= $121,000

Amount recovered in year 4 = $-390,000 + $121,000 = $-269,000

Cash inflow in year 5= $133,100

Amount recovered in year 5 = $-269,000 + $133,100 = $-135,900

Cash inflow in year 6 = $146,410

Amount recovered in year 6 = $146,410 $-135,900 = $10,510

The amount is recovered In 5.93 years

Consider the supply of avocados. explain why a change in the price of fertilizer causes a shift in the supply curve for avocados
allsm [11]

I believe the answer is: D. a change in the cost of inputs changes how much a producer will supply at a given price

Fertilizer is considered to be an input for the avocado since it is an integral part for the avocado producers to transform raw material (Avocado seeds) into a finished product (full grown avocado), Which mean when the cost of fertilizer is increased, the amount of capital needed before their avocado is ready to sell would also increased.
