Answer:
d. Fall to $1.47
Explanation:
currently you will need $1,500 to purchase £1,000 and invest in British bonds. After 65 months you will have £1,040, which you should be able to convert into $1,544.40. If you invested in US bonds, you would have $1,530, so this arbitrage will yield $14.40.
But if instead the British pound fell to $1.47, then your profit would only be $28.80, less than if you invested in US bonds. You again would have £1,040 in 6 months, but that would only be equal to $1,528.80.
Answer:
c. Optimum replacement interval (ORI)
Explanation:
Optimum replacement interval used to estimate the most cost effective time to replace an asset on the basis of their replacement cost.
There needs to be a balance between the replacement cost and the value that is being lost by changing the asset.
The useful value must be low to justify replacement cost.
For example if the cost of maintaining a machine has increased a lot as a result of wear and tear, it will be more cost effective to make a replacement in order to minimise cost and increase efficiency
It’s C because all the numbers add up to be it and so it is and just saying don’t listen to this answer cause I guessed
Salt was the mineral that the afar men occasionally mined as a trade good.
Answer:
13.86%
Explanation:
34% was invested into stock X with an expected return of 11%
22% was invested into stock Y with an expected return of 18%
44% was invested into stock Z with an expected return of 14%
The expected return on the portfolio can be calculated using the formula below
Expected return= Sum of ( weight of stock×return of stock)
= (0.34×11%)+(0.22×18%)+(0.44×14%)
= 3.74+3.96+6.16
= 13.86%
Hence the expected return on the portfolio is 13.86%
