Answer:

2.58%

Explanation:

Mathematically, the relationship between the different interest rates using the equation is shown below:

(1+S2)^2=(1+S1)^1*(1+2y1y)

The spot rate in year 2 is the same as the spot rate in year 1 multiplied by the 1-year forward rate beginning in year 2.

S2=2-year rate =2.34%

S1=1-year rate =2.10%

2y1y=one-year interest rate 2 years from now=the unknown

(1+2.34%)^2=(1+2.10%)^1*(1+2y1y)

(1+2y1y)=(1+2.34%)^2/(1+2.10%)^1

2y1y)=(((1+2.34%)^2/(1+2.10%)^1)-1

2y1y=1.025805642-1

2y1y= 2.58%

The formula shows that borrowing or lending for 2 years at 2.34% is the same as borrowing or lending at 2.10% in year and 2.58% forward rate in year 2

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

There are no options listed, but what I can tell you for sure is that John's actions were both unethical and illegal.

What John did is unethical because it is not moral and it goes against all the principles that guide professional conduct. John also did something illegal because he was an accomplice in committing fraud against the company. He knowingly benefited from the accountant's illegal actions, and that is basically the legal definition of an accomplice to a crime.
