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
Answer:
Gross Domestic Product
= $500
<em>GDP is the final value of goods and services. The haircut is valued at $500 so is GDP. </em>
Net National Product:
= GDP - Depreciation
= 500 - 80
= $420
National Income
= $420
<em>This is the income that a resident of the country earns and $420 is what Barry earned in net income.</em>
Personal Income
= National income - Retained earnings
= 420 - 120 - 50
= $250
Disposable Personal Income (Dollars)
= Personal income - income taxes
= 250 - 90
= $160
Answer:
- Invest $8,470 in X
- Invest $2,530 in Y.
Explanation:
The following expressions can be formed;
Let x and y be the proportions
x + y = 1
0.15x + 0.1y = 13.85%
Expressing y in terms of x;
x + y = 1
y = 100 - x
0.15x + 0.1 ( 1 - x) = 13.85%
0.15x + 0.1 - 0.1x = 13.85%
0.05x = 13.85% - 0.1
x = 13.85%0.05 - 0.1/0.05
x = 77%
Invest 77% in X = 77% * 11,000
= $8,470
Invest in Y
= 11,000 - 8,470
= $2,530
The compensation survey showed an average hourly rate of $23 for total compensation. Of this amount, wages are $16 per hour and benefits are $7 per hour. In comparison, Butcher Enterprises spends an average hourly rate of $19 for total compensation. Of this amount, 70 percent is allocated for wages.
1-7. On an average hourly basis, how much does Butcher Enterprises spend on wages and benefits, respectively, in dollars?
Answer:
Hourly wage = 0.7 * $19 = $13.3
Hourly benefit = 0.3 * $19 =$5.7
Explanation:
Butcher enterprises spends average hourly rate of total compensation = $ 19
Allocation for hourly wage = 70%
So therefore;
Hourly wage = 0.7 * $19 = $13.3
Allocation for hourly benefit = 30%
So therefore;
Hourly benefit = 0.3 * $19 =$5.7
