Why does building a ladder of bonds potect against changes in interest rates?

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Build a bond ladder to boost

Step-by-step explanation:

By using a bond ladder, you smooth out the fluctuations in the market because you have a bond maturing every year or so. The second reason for using a bond ladder is that it provides investors with the ability to adjust cash flows according to their financial situation.Sep 18, 2019

You bought a car for $50,000. Each year it depreciates in value by 7.5%.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

y= 50,000(1-.075)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The first year of depreciation is calculated by:

50,000 - (0.075)*(50,000) = 46,250

This can also be written as:

(50,000)*(1 - 0.075) [Pull out the 50,000]

The second year will depreciate starting with the $46,250 value at the end of the first year:

46,250 - (0.075)*(46,250) = 42,781

This may be written as:

(46,250)(1 - 0.075) = 42,781

The 46,250 was derived from the first year depreciation calculation, so we can substitute that instead of the 46,250:

((50,000)*(1 - 0.075))(1 - 0.075) = 42,781

This reduces to:

(50,000)*(1 - 0.075)^2 = 42,781. Note that the term (1-0.075) is now raised to the 2nd power. This power represents the 2nd year. Each succeeding year would be raised by one additional power, so that we can write a depreciated value after x years will be:

(50,000)*(1 - 0.075)^x

Find the percent of change. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent if necessary.

Rom4ik [11]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage change can be computed from ...

pct change = ((new value)/(old value) -1) × 100%

= ((1/2)/(1/4) -1) × 100%

= (2 -1) × 100%

= 100%

The increase by 1/4 from 1/4 to 1/2 is an increase of 100%.

2<br> 1 point<br> The point, (-3, 7), is on the line y = -3x+7.<br> True<br> O False

sladkih [1.3K]

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to know if the the point is on the line plug in the x coordinate to check if it gives you the y coordinate as an output.
If you plug in the x coordinate and it gives you the given y coordinate then the point is on the given line
Now let us plug in the value of x=-3
$y = - 3( - 3) + 7 \\ y = - 9 + 7 \\ y = - 2$
now if you check plugging in the given x coordinate it does not give you the given y coordinate but -2
therefore the point(-3,7) is not in the line but (-3,-2) is the point in the line.

Today only, a table is being sold at 26% a discount. The sale price is $629. What was the price yesterday?

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Today's price P must be 74% (100% - 26%) of yesterday's price Y. P = $555 = 74%*Y = 0.74*Y. Y = $555/0.74.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps if not sorry
