Answer:

Explanation:

Let:

y=Tequila\\x=Vodka

So:

170y+32x=2810

This is an equation of a line. Let's represent it in its Slope–intercept form:

Subtract\hspace{3}32x\hspace{3}from\hspace{3}both\hspace{3} sides:\\170y=2810-32x\\\\Divide\hspace{3}both\hspace{3}sides\hspace{3}by\hspace{3}170\\\\y=\frac{281}{17}-\frac{16}{85}x

In order to find the intercept of the budget line on the Tequila axis, we need to evaluate the function for x=0, so:

y=\frac{281}{17} -\frac{16}{85} (0)=\frac{281}{17} \approx16.53

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Therefore I can borrow $19646.12 from E-Loan.

The interest I will pay for the loan is $1,857.88.

Explanation:

The formula of present value is

PV=PMT(\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n}}{i})

PMT = The monthly payment = $448

i= Rate of interest per period =\frac{4.5}{12}\%=0.00375

n = The number of month = 48 months

Therefore

PV=448(\frac{1-(1+0.00375)^{-48}}{0.00375})

      ≈$19646.12

Therefore I can borrow $19646.12 from E-Loan.

The interest = Paid amount - Loan amount

                    =$[(448×48)-19646.12]

                   =$1,857.88

The interest I will pay for the loan is $1,857.88.

Suppose that the spot price of the euro is currently $1.30. The 1-year futures price is $1.35. Is the interest rate higher in th
valkas [14]

Answer:

The interest rate is higher in the US.

Explanation:

The forward price is calculated using the following formula,

F= S ( 1+Rd / 1+Rf)^t

where,

  • F = Forward rate
  • S = Spot rate
  • Rd = Nominal interest rate in domestic market
  • Rf = Nominal interest rate in foreign market
  • t = time in years

We consider that the domestic market is the US and the domestic currency is the USD. Thus, it is a direct quote where 1 EUR = 1.3 USD

The forward price ER is more than the Sport ER only when the interest rate in domestic market is more than the interest rate in foreign market and as a result, the value of domestic currency against a foreign currency in the forward market depreciates.

We can see this by the following example,

Say Spot rate is $1.3 per 1 EUR and the interest rate in US is 10% while that in Euro zone is 5%. When we calculate the forward ER we will see that 1 EUR will buy us more USD in forward (more than 1.3 USD)

F= 1.3 * (1.1 / 1.05)^1   => $1.362 PER 1EUR
