Answer:
Monthly interest rate = 2.16666667%
Explanation:
Given:
Annual percentage rate = 26% = 26 / 100 = 0.26
Total number of months in a year = 12 month
Monthly interest rate = ?
Computation of monthly interest rate :
Monthly interest rate = Annual percentage rate / Total number of months in a year
Monthly interest rate = 0.26 / 12
Monthly interest rate = 0.0216666667
Monthly interest rate = 2.16666667%
Answer: 7.24%
Explanation:
From the question, we are told that:
3 years treasury securities have an interest rate = 1.92%
10 years treasury security has an interest rate = 5.62%
Let the 7 year treasury security interest in 3 years be represented by z.
Based on the expectation theory
( 1+1.92%)^3 × (1 + z%)^7 = (1 + 5.62%)^10
(1+0.0192)^3 × (1 + z%)^7 = (1 + 0.0562)^10
(1.0192)^3 (1 + z%)^7 = (1.0562)^10
1.05871(1 + z%)^7 = 1.72767
Divide both side by 1.05871
(1 + z%)^7 = 1.72767/1.05871
(1 + z%)^7= 1.6319
1 + z% = 1.6319^1/7
1 + z% = 1.6319^0.1429
1 + z% = 1.0724
z% = 1.0724 - 1
z% = 0.0724
We then convert the decimal to percentage
z = 7.24%
The market believes that 7-year Treasury securities will be yielding 7.24% in 3 years .
Answer:
A credit bureau
Explanation:
A credit bureau is a agency which collects the credit history of consumers so that creditors can make decisions about granting loans. So the only logical choice is for Martha's lender to check with them to get her credit history before denying or granting her a mortgage or loan.
The Bay of Pigs Invasion was a foreign policy embarrassment for the Kennedy Administration.
When John Kennedy assumed the presidency after Dwight Eisenhower, he was faced with the pressure to act on Cuban dictator Fidel Castro's growing relationship with the Soviet Union (yet another of US' formidable enemies).
His senior advisers urged him to authorize the attack on Cuba and initiate a movement to overthrow Fidel Castro. This played on Kennedy's foreign principle which is for Democratic countries such the US to show a strong force against dictatorships like Castro's. In April 1961, the invasion at the Bay of Pigs failed extremely. Castro was quick to mobilize his militia to counter Kennedy's botched plan. Aside from this, Kennedy made some worst decisions that nailed the coffin shut. Thus the Kennedy Administration suffered a lot of damage due to this failure.
Answer:
3,000 $100 bills equivalent to $300,000
Explanation:
The economic order quantity (EOQ) is the optimum quantity of a good to be purchased or required at a time in order to minimize ordering and carrying costs in inventory.
EOQ = the square root of [(2 times the annual demand in units times the incremental cost to process an order) divided by (the incremental annual cost to carry one unit in inventory)]
- annual demand in units = 12,500 x 12 = 150,000
- incremental costs to process an order = $300
- incremental annual cost to carry one unit in inventory = 10% x 100 = $10
EOQ = √[(2 x 150,000 x $300) / $10] = √($90,000,000 / $10) = √9,000,000 = 3,000 bills
