Answer:
27%
Explanation:
The actual rate being charge on these loans is the effective annual rate and the formula to calculate it is:
i=(1+(r/m))^m−1
i= effective annual rate
r= interest rate in decimal form=0.24
m=number of compounding periods per year= 52 (a year has 52 weeks).
i=(1+(0.24/52))^52-1
i=1.27-1
i=0.27
According to this, the answer is that the actual rate being charge on these loans is 27%.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The investment A was more risky, but in general they were both pretty much a risk.
With both having a produced annual rates of return in under 10%
Reason for A being the riskier is that his annual rate of return in average was 8%, while B's annual rate was 9%
Difference may seem small, but for bigger investments 1% can be a deal breaker.
Answer:Yield to maturity is 9.59%; After tax cost of debt =7.672%
Explanation:
A) Yield to maturity ={ C + (FV-PV)/t} / {(FV +PV)/2}
Where C – Interest payment = $90
FV – Face value of the security
= $1000
PV – Present value/curent market value = $960
t – years it takes the security to reach maturity= 10 years
imputing the values and calculating,
yield to maturity ={ C + (FV-PV)/t} / {(FV +PV)/2}
= $90 + (1000-960)/10} / 1000 + 960 /2
$90 + 4= $94 /980= 0.0959
therefore Yield to maturity is 9.59%
B) After tax cost of debt = Yield To Maturity x (1 - tax rate)
=9.59% x (1-20%)= 9.59% x (1-0.2 )= 9.59% x 0.8 =
9.59 % x 80%=7.672%
Answer:
Return on investment = -0.71%
Explanation:
<em>The return on investment is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment. </em>
<em>Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders. </em>
<em>Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal</em>.
Therefore, we can can compute the return on the investment as follows:
Total Return on investment =
(Capital gain/ loss + dividend )/purchase price × 100
Capital loss = (184 -140) × 120 = - 480
Dividend = 427
Commission = 34 + 39 =-73
Net loss on investment = - 480 - 73 + 427= -126
Return on investment = -126
/(148× 120) = -0.71%
Return on investment = -0.71%
Answer:
The rate of return on the stock can be best guessed to be 5%
Explanation:
Beta = 1.1
expected rate of return = 16%
But return = 10%
1.1 x 10%
= 11%
The updated expectation for the stock return is
= 16% − 11%
= 5%.
Therefore The rate of return on the stock can be best guessed to be 5%
