uranmaximum [27]

Answer: Option (B) is correct.

When interested rates are high cost less money to borrow money true or false
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

That statements is false

Explanation:

When you borrow money, interest represent the additional amount that you need to give back to the creditor. For example let's say that you borrow $1,000 with 10% interest rate per year. After one year, you need to pay back the loan with additional $100 ($1,000 x 10%) for the creditor.

This means that when the interest rate is high, it will cost you more to borrow money.

Find the effective rate of interest if payments of 300 at the present, 200 at the end of one year, and 100 at the end of two yea
Illusion [34]

Answer:

12.93%

Explanation:

Given that the amount of 300 is invested for 3 years, while the amount of 100 is invested for 2 years and 100 is invested for 1 year.

also amount accumulated in three years = 800

Applying the formula to find the future value we get

300(1+r)^3 + 200(1+r)^2 + 100(1+r) = 800

which can be further simplified to

300r^3+1100r^2+1400r+600=800

where, r is the effective rate of interest which we have to find out

The above equation is cubic in r, so to solve this we can use equation solver. When we put this equation in equation solver we get

r = 0.12926

r ≅ 0.1293

Therefore,  effective rate of interest  = 12.93%
