You sell short 300 shares of Microsoft that are currently selling at $30 per share. You post the 50% margin required on the shor

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

20%

Explanation:

Data provided

Currently selling per share = $30

Cost of Microsoft after selling = $27

Margin percentage = 50%

The calculation of rate of return is shown below:-

Rate of return = (Currently selling per share - Cost of Microsoft after selling) ÷ Margin percentage × 100

= ($30 - $27) ÷ 50% × 30

= $3 ÷ 15

= 0.20

or

20%

Therefore for calculating the rate of return we simply applied the above formula.

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The present value of the annuity is $ 825.02

Explanation:

The present value of the annuity is the today's worth of the thirty annuity payments.

Each of the annuity payment is multiplied by its discount factor,for instance the discount factor for the first payment is computed thus

=$15*(1/(1+6%/12)^1=$14.93

The 6% interest rate is divided by 12 months to show a monthly rate of return find attached.

Population growth: Suppose the world population today is 7 billion, and sup- pose this population grows at a constant rate of 3%

Alika [10]

Given Information:

Current Population = P₀ = 7 billion = 7x10⁹

Growth rate = r = 3 %

Period = t = 100 years

Required Information:

(a) Population after 100 years = ?

(b) Population after t = 0, 1, 2, 10, 25, 50 years = ?

(c) Population vs time graph = ?

Explanation:

The human population growth can be modeled as an exponential growth,

$P = P_{0} e^{rt}$

where P₀ is the current population, r is the growth rate and t is the time period

(a) What would the population equal 100 years from now?

$P = 7x10^{9} e^{0.03*100}$

P = 140.6x10⁹

(b) Compute the level of the population for t = 0, t = 1, t = 2, t = 10, 25, and t =50

t = 0

P = 7x10⁹e⁰

P = 7x10⁹

t = 1

P = 7x10⁹e^0.03*1

P = 7.213x10⁹

t = 2

P = 7x10⁹e^0.03*2

P = 7.423x10⁹

t = 10

P = 7x10⁹e^0.03*10

P = 9.45x10⁹

t = 25

P = 7x10⁹e^0.03*25

P = 14.82x10⁹

t = 50

P = 7x10⁹e^0.03*50

P = 31.37x10⁹

(c) Make a population versus time graph

Dennisport Corporation has an acid-test ratio of 1.7. It has current liabilities of $56,000 and noncurrent assets of $87,000. Th

ra1l [238]

Answer: $33600

Explanation:

Current liabilities = $56,000

Noncurrent assets = $87,000

First and foremost, we should note that:

Acid-test ratio = Current Assets / Current liabilities

Therefore,

1.7 = Current Assets / $56,000

Current assets = $56000 × 1.7

= $95,200

Also,

Current ratio = Current Assets / Current liabilities

Therefore,

2.3 = Current Assets / $56,000

Current assets = $56,000 × 2.3

= $128,800

Then, the inventory and prepaid expenses will be:

= $128,800 - $95,200

= $33,600
