Answer:

False

Explanation:

When value of money is evaluated over time, the interest rate is put into consideration.

Present value of future cash flows of a loan is an estimate of how much will be paid on a certain amount given a specific interest rate over a period of time.

So if there is a fall in interest rate it means that less of the original amount is being discounted, so present value increases.

On the other hand when interest rate increases more of original amount is discounted. So the present value reduces.

In the given scenario when you receive a payment of $300 one year from now and during the year the interest rate rises, this reduces the present value of your future payment

yarga [219]

Answer: 1.28

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is a weighted average of the investments in the portfolio.

The new beta will therefore be;

= Portfolio beta - weighted beta of stock being sold + weighted beta of stock to be added

= 1.3 + ( 10,000/150,000 * 1.6) + ( 1.3 * 10,000/150,000)

= 1.3 - 0.11 + 0.09

= 1.28

solmaris [256]

Answer:

The computation is shown below:

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

For weighted cost of each source of capital is

Debt:

= Cost of debt × Weight of debt

= 9% × 50%

= 4.5%

Equity

= Cost of equity × weight of equity

= 16% × 0.15

= 2.4%

Preferred stock

= Cost of preferred stock × weight of preferred stock

= 12.50% × 35%

= 4.375%

Now the weighted average cost of capital is

= 4.5% + 2.4% + 4.375%

= 11.275%

Therefore in the first part we multiplied the cost with the weight of each source of capital

And, then we add the all answers

OLga [1]

Answer:

present value = $7296.14

Explanation:

given data

future value =  $34,000

time t = 20 year

rate r = 8% = 0.08

solution

we apply here future value formula for get present value that is

future value = present value × (1+r)^{t}    .....................1

put her value and we get

$34,000 = present value ×  (1+0.08)^{20}

present value = \frac{34000}{1.08^{20}}

present value = \frac{34000}{4.660}

present value = $7296.14

VikaD [51]
The answer to the question above is "brand names cause consumers to be more sensitive to product differences" based on the result of Roberto's taste test. In the blind test, Roberto did not feel the unsavory flavor from the generic store-coke and he prefers that generic store-coke. This test proves that Roberto's taste is distracted by the brand.
