Answer:
Jennifer is losing purchasing power by 2%.
Explanation:
An increase in prices indicates a decrease in the purchasing power of the consumers. An increase in income means an increase in the purchasing power of the consumers.
A 5% raise means that Jennifer's income will increase by 5% and so will her purchasing power. But at the same time, a price rise by 7% means that her purchasing power will decrease by 7%.
This means that overall her purchasing power will decrease by 2%.
Answer:
25.94%
Explanation:
Assume, Face value of bond =$1000
Purchase price of twenty year zero coupon bond = 1000/((1+i)^N)
. Where, yield = 5% =0.05
, N= number of years to maturity =20
==> Purchase Price = 1000/(1.05^20)
Purchase Price = 1000/2.65329770514
Purchase Price = $376.89
Selling Price after one year: 1000/(1+I)^19. Where i=yield=4%=0.04, N=19
Selling Price=1000/(1.04^19)
Selling Price = 1000/2.10684917599
Selling Price = $474.64
Rate of Return = (474.64/376.89) - 1
Rate of Return = 1.25935949481281 - 1
Rate of Return = 0.2594
Rate of Return = 25.94%
Answer:
both blanks can be filled by <u>5%</u>
Explanation:
The quantity theory of money states that there is a proportional relationship between the money supply and the general level of prices. An increase in the money supply will increase the general level of prices in the same proportion (called inflation).
The Fisher equation measures the relationship between nominal and real interest rates. Real interest rate = nominal interest rate - inflation rate.
So if inflation increases, the nominal inflation rate will increase to keep the real interest rate the same.
Answer:
b. diminishing returns to specialization.
Explanation:
Diminishing returns is also called diminishing productivity. It states that as additional unit of input is used in production it will get to a stage where more of input will be required to maintain output levels.
If the same level of input is used it will result in reduction in output over time.
This is exemplified in this secanrio where it takes 10 units of resources to increase its output of sugar from 12 tons to 13 tons, but 11 units of resources to increase output from 13 tons to 14 tons, and 12 units of resources to increase output from 14 tons and 15 tons.
It takes more input to increase output by 1 ton
