Answer:
$14,343.25
Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
For the first bank
The value of investment is
= $68,000 × 8% × 8 + $68,000
= $111,520
For the second bank
= $68,000 × (1 + 0.08)^8
= $125,863.25
So, the difference in these both amount should be
= $125,863.25 - $111,520
= $14,343.25
Answer:
242.65
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
year 2011 2012 2013
Salary $65,000 $72,000 $76,000
Consumer Price Index 226 230 235
Real Interest Rate 2.5% 2.7% 1.8%
Nominal interest rate for 2013 = 7.3%
Now,
Rate of inflation for 2013 = Nominal rate - Real rate
= 7.3% - 1.8%
= 5.5%
Therefore,
CPI in 2013 = Consumer Price Index in 2012 × (1 + inflation )
= 230 × ( 1 + 0.055 )
= 242.65
