Answer:
First National Bank = 14.6%
First United Bank.= = 14.8%
Explanation:
<em>Effective annual rate is the equivalent annual rate o where interest rate is compounded at an interval shorter than a year.</em>
It can be calculated as follows:
EAR = ( (1+r)^(n) -1) × 100
r -interest rate per period
n- number of period
EAR - Effective annual rate
First National Bank
r - interest rate per month = 13.7%/12 = 1.141%
number of period = 12 months
EAR =( (1+011141)^(12) - 1) × 100
= 0.145938395 × 100
= 14.59
= 14.6%
First United Bank.
r- interest rate per quarter - 14%/4 = 3.5% per quarter
n- number of quarters = 4
EAR = ((1+0.035)^(4)- 1) × 100
= 0.147523001 × 100
= 14.8%
Answer: (d.)The bakery faces a flat demand curve.
Explanation:
The bakery faces a flat demand curve because a firm in a perfectly competitive market is a price taker and the demand curve for a firm is equal to the price the supply curve is a part of Marginal cost above Average variable cost , so the supply curve is upward sloping
. The bakery is in the perfectly competitive market so it can earn positive, negative or zero economic profit in the short run and zero economic profit in the long run.
The complete question is as follows:
The admission directory of Big City University has a novel idea. He proposed using the IQ scores of current students as a marketing tool. The university agrees to provide him with enough money to administer IQ tests to 50 students. So the director gives the IQ test to an SRS of 50 of the university’s 5000 freshman. The mean IQ score for the sample is xbar=112. The IQ test he administered is known to have a σ of 15. What is the 95% Confidence Interval about the mean? What can the director say about the mean score of the population of all 5000 freshman?
Answer: The 95% confidence interval about the mean is 
.
The director can say that he is 95% confident that the mean IQ score of the 5000 freshmen lies between 107.84 and 116.16.
We follow these steps to arrive at the answer:
Since the population standard deviation of the IQ test is known, we can use the Z scores to find the confidence interval.
The formula for the confidence interval about the mean is:
In the equation above, X bar is known as the point estimate and the second term is known as Margin of Error.
The Critical Value of Z at the 95% confidence level is 1.96.
Substituting the values in the question in the equation above we have,
The available options are:
A. I and III
B. I and IV
C. II and III
D. II and IV
Answer:
C. II and III
Explanation:
IO tranche which is an acronym for Interest Only tranche is defined as a form of tranche which earns interest only from a secured loan which is derived from Principal Only tranche.
However, Interest Only tranche is quite different from a typical bond, simply because when market interest rate increases the rate of prepayment decreases, which in turn makes the rate of maturity to be longer. Thereby when interest rates increase, prices increase, and vice versa.
Hence the true statements are:
II When interest rates rise, the price of the tranche rises
III When interest rates fall, the price of the tranche falls
Answer:
The money supply increases by $3300.
Explanation:
Money multiplier = 1/reserve ratio
= 1/0.4
= 2.5
the change in the money supply = deposit *multiplier -deposit
= $2,200*2.5 - $2,200
= $3300
Therefore, The money supply increases by $3300.
