Answer:

0.368

Explanation:

Price of B(0,13) = 1 / (1 + interest rate)^years

Price of B(0,13) = 1 / (1 + 8%)^13

Price of B(0,13) = 1 / (1+0.08)^13

Price of B(0,13) = 1 / (1.08)^13

Price of B(0,13) = 1 / 2.7196237

Price of B(0,13) = 0.3676979247

Price of B(0,13) = 0.368

On January 1, 2012, Albert invested $6,000 at 8 percent interest per year for three years. The CPI (times 100) on January 1, 201
qaws [65]

Answer:

Inflation in 2012:

=\frac{CPI\ 2013 - CPI\ 2012}{CPI\ 2012}

=\frac{110 - 100}{100}

= 10%

Inflation in 2013:

=\frac{CPI\ 2014 - CPI\ 2013}{CPI\ 2013}

=\frac{120 - 110}{110}

= 9.09%

Inflation in 2014:

=\frac{CPI\ 2015 - CPI\ 2014}{CPI\ 2014}

=\frac{126 - 120}{120}

= 5%

Real rate of interest = Nominal - inflation

Given that,

Nominal rate = 8%

Therefore,

Real interest rate is as follows:

2012:

= 8% - 10%

= -2%

2013:

= 8% - 9.09%

= -1.09%

2014:

= 8% - 5%

= 3%

$6000 at 8% grows to:

= 1000 × 1.08

= $6,480 in one year

which is invested again to grow to $6,998.4 in two years

which is invested again to grow to $7,558.272 in three years

so,

Total gain:

=\frac{7,558.272-6,000}{6000}\times100

= 25.9712%

The price level increases in three years by:

=\frac{CPI\ 2015 - CPI\ 2012}{CPI\ 2012}\times 100

=\frac{126 - 100}{100}\times 100

= 26%

So,

Total real rate of return:

= Total gain - Percentage increase in prices

= 25.9712 - 26

= -0.0288%

Suppose that the pound is pegged to gold at £20 per ounce and the dollar is pegged to gold at $35 per ounce. This implies an exc
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

The exchange rate implies in exchange rate of $1.75 but current market exchange rate is $1.80 which means that the dollar is undervalued and pound is over valued in the market.

We will buy Dollar in the market and use these dollars to buy gold and then sell this gold in Euros

E.G Buy a $1000 from the market for £555(10,000*1/1.8)

After that we can by 28.5(1000/35) ounces of gold from that and sell the gold for £571(20*28.5). This way we make a profit of £16 (571-555) without taking any risk.

solniwko [45]

Answer:

1. The government could not finance it's deficit budget.

2. The Dollar was stable and Through dollar adoption, interest rate would be lowered and investments would increase.

Explanation:

The colon was changed to dollars because El Salvador wanted a boost in it's economy through the US Dollar.

Printing money to finance deficit would no longer be done by the government and inflation would be brought under control. Because of the adoption El Salvador has no control over it's monetary policy.

the government would still be able to run deficits by printing money

with dollars, shocks caused by demand in the economy will be offset more effectively by using monetary policy.

By printing U.S. dollars, the government would still be able to finance deficits.
