Answer: 7.67%

Explanation:

To solve this, the financial calculator will be needed

Present value = -896.87

Future Value = 1,000

N = [(25 - 5years) × 2 = 40

PMT = $45

Given the above information, we will press the financial calculator as we'll press CPT after which we then press I/Y and we'll get 5.11%

Then, the the firm's after-tax cost of debt will be:

= (5.11% x 2 )(1 - 0.25)

= (0.0511 × 2) (0.75)

= 0.07665

= 7.665%

= 7.67%

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

c. increases the quantity of goods and services demanded.

Explanation:

According to the law of demand, there is an indirect relationship between demand and the prices for good or service. Should the price of a good or service increase, its demand will decrease. Demand comprises of the willingness and ability to buy.

A decrease in the price level will make the product affordable by more buyers. The market will afford to buy more of that product. The law of demand works together with the law of supply. The intersection of demand and supply curves determines the price of a product.

Arte-miy333 [17]

<span>In agreement with lots of consumer advocates one should not furnish his/her apartment by going to a rent to own company, this is because the budget of renting to own is much more costly than the cost of buying.

What is the likely chain of events if asset prices rise?
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

b) People feel wealthier, so their spending rises and their saving falls, causing interest rates to rise.

Explanation:

If assets price rises, for example, the price of stocks in the market, people will feel wealthier because they now have more disposable income. As consumption is a function of disposable income, as stated by the consumption formula:

C = a + MPC*Yd

Where

C = consumption

a = autonomous consumption (consumption that does not depend on disposable income)

MPC = marginal propensity to consume

Yd = disposable income

if disposable income is higher, then consumption will be higher.

People save whatever money is left after consumption. If people consume more, then, their savings will fall.

Less savings means that the supply of loanable funds will fall, causing a rise in the interest rates.
