In economics, the Fisher equation is used to determine the relationship of the nominal interest rate and the real interest rate. This equation takes into account the effect of inflation. Mathematically this is expressed as:

Real rate = $\frac{1+Nominal rate}{1+Inflation}$ -1

The values given are:

Nominal rate= 10% = 0.1

Inflation=5%=0.05

Substituting known values and by calculation:

Real rate=0.0476 = 4.76%

Answer:

a) Present Value of sales = $2,722,332.78

b) Property is not attractive. NPV$ (277,667.21)

c) Property is attractive. NPV-$520,874.79

Explanation:

The present value of the property

PV = S× (1+r)^(-n)

S- Sales value

r- interest rate -8%

n- number of years

PV - present value

PV = 4,000,000× 1.08^(-5) = $2,722,332.78

b. Is the property investment attractive to you?

We calculated the PV of the investment as follows

NPV = PV of sales value - initial cost

= 2,722,332.78 - 3,000,000=$ (277,667.21)

The property investment is not attractive because it will produce a loss in capital i.e negative NPV

To determine we will calculate the NPV again with considering the additional rental income

PV of annual rent = 200,000 × (1-1.08^(-5))/0.08= 798,542.00

NPV = 798,542.00 + 277,667.2119 - 3,000,000 =520,874.79

The property is attractive as it produces positive NPV

Answer:

$27

Explanation:

Giving that the most important(all in actuality) values related to the question are not listed, I'd do well to improvise and assume. And as such, I have these

I'm assuming that the minimum payment on a credit card is the greater of $27 or 3% of the unpaid balance. And thereafter, proceeding to find the minimum payment on an unpaid balance of about $815.69.

To do this, we use simple arithmetic to first find the value of the percentage in dollars, so that

3% of $815.69 = 3/100 * 815.69 = $24.471

Remember that drum the question, the minimum payment is greater than 3% of the unpaid balance or $27. Given than 24.47 is less than 27, our answer is $27
