Answer:
We can say the rate is close enought to 14%
Explanation:
tthe IRR will be the rate at wich the NPV is zero
The cash flow are an annuity of 4,120 for 6 years
NPV = present value of cash flow - investment
0 = PV of annuity - investment
0 = PV of annuity - 16,000
PV = 16,000
C 4120
time 6
rate IRR
We divide the PV by the annuity to get the annuity factor
16,000 / 4,120 = 3,88349
We can look into the annuity table for a factor at time = 6 close to this figure
we have
14% factor of 3.889
15% factor of 3.784
We can say the rate is close enought to 14%
Answer:
Ans. The equilibrium rate of return on a 1-year Treasury bond is 6.65% (please check the explanation)
Explanation:
Hi, well, this type of bonds exist so people can avoid the time value of money risk, in other words, to keep money save from inflation and provide a risk free return at the same time. From a part of the text I can tell that the person who wrote it wanted to add up the risk free rate and the inflation rate, that is 3.05%+3.60% =6.65%.
This is why I wrote this answer, but the truth is that since they are both effective rates (risk free rate and inflation), they need to be add as effective rates, that is:
Therefore
So the real equilibrium rate of return is 6.76%, but for the sake of the question, I wrote 6.65%.
Best of luck.
