Answer:

13.70%

Explanation:

We use the PMT formula which is to be shown in the attachment

Given that,  

Present value = $1,326.50

Future value = $1,000

Rate of interest = 9.8%  ÷ 2 = 4.9%

NPER = 18 years × 2 = 36 years

The formula is shown below:

= PMT(Rate;NPER;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after solving this, the PMT is

= $68.48  × 2

= $136.92

Now the coupon rate is

= $136.92 ÷ $1,000

= 13.70%

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

As the price level rises, the purchasing power of households' real wealth will <u>fall</u>, causing the quantity of output demand to <u>fall.</u> This phenomenon is known as the <u>wealth</u> effect.

Additionally, as the price level rises, the impact on the domestic interest rate will cause the real value of the dollar to <u>rise</u> in foreign exchange markets. The number of domestic products purchased by foreign (exports) will therefore <u>fall</u>, and the number of foreign products purchases by domestic consumers and firms(imports) will <u>rise</u>.

Net exports will therefore <u>fall</u>, causing the quantity of domestic output demanded to <u>fall.</u> This phenomenon is known as the <u>exchange rate</u> effect.

jekas [21]

Answer:

The present value is $938.82

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Compute the present value of $1,150 paid in three years using the following discount rates: 6 percent in the first year, 7 percent in the second year, and 8 percent in the third year.

We need to discount the final value of $1,150 for each discount rate starting in year 3.

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

Year 3= 1,150/1.08= 1,064.81

Year 2= 1,064.81/1.07= 995.15

Year 1= 995.15/1.06= 938.82

The present value is $938.82
