Answer: $2197570

Explanation:

The cost estimate is prepared below:

Base cost = $101.15 × 18525 = $1873804

Add: Site work cost = $180000

Total = $1,873,804 + $180,000 = $2053804

Add: Design fees = 7% × $2053804 = 0.07 × $2053804 = $143766

Estimated cost = $2053804 + $143766 = $2197570

The range or percentage of this cost will be +50%.

Suppose a worker in Peru can produce 11 lamps or 4 dressers in a day and a worker in Canada can produce 15 lamps or 6 dressers i
wolverine [178]

Answer:

4/11 and 6/15 dressers.

Explanation:

Absolute advantage is the ability of a country to produce more of a product given the same resources than another country per unit time. It also applies when a country is able to produce same amount of goods with another country given less inputs.

So a country that produces more goods uses a more efficient process to get more output.

In this scenario a worker in Peru can produce 11 lamps or 4 dressers in a day and a worker in Canada can produce 15 lamps or 6 dressers in a day. Canada has absolute advantage in producing lamps and dressers, so importing these items will not be beneficial.

To get a balance where both countries will benefit a lamp will have to go for a ratio of each countrie's product to the opportunity cost.

That is for Peru to produce 4 dressers it will have opportunity cost of 11 lamps. So the ratio is 4/11.

Also for Canada to produce 6 dressers it will have opportunity cost of 15 lamps. So the ratio is 6/15.

Lamp should trade for between 4/11 to 6/15 dressers for both countries to benefit.

Assume that interest rate parity holds and that 90-day risk-free securities yield a nominal annual rate of 3% in the United Stat
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

$1.55

Explanation:

Interest rate parity = (1+Rh) / (1+Rf) = F1 / S0

Rh = rate on home currency here US is home 3% p.a = 3%/4 = 0.75%

Rf= rate on foreign currency here Germany 3.5% p.a = 3.5%/4 = 0.875

F1 = Forward rate , S0= Spot market rate

So, (1+0.0075) / (1+0.00875) = F1 / 1.56

1.0075/1.00875 = F1 / 1.56

0.998761 = F1 / 1.56

F1 = 0.998761 * 1.56

F1 = 1.55806716

F1 = $1.55

Thus, the 90-day forward rate is $1.55
