Answer:

The answer is = 12.5%

Explanation:

The 175 people that have jobs are in unemployment (employed).

The 25 people that are not working but are looking for jobs are called unemployed.

The 90 people are neither working nor looking for work for work are not counted in the employment.

Therefore, the labor force is employed people + unemployed people.

Labor force is 175 + 25= 200 people.

So, unemployment rate is:

(unemployed people ÷ labor force) x 100

(25÷200) x 100%

=12.5%

Which of the following statements are true based on the historical record for 1926–2016? Multiple Choice Risk-free securities pr
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: Bonds are generally a safer, or less risky, investment than are stocks

Explanation: The biggest pro of investing in stocks over bonds is that history shows, stocks tend to earn more than bonds - especially long term. Additionally, stocks can offer better returns if the company growth is exponential, earning the investor potentially millions on an originally minuscule investment.

Many investors are under the impression that bonds are automatically safer than stocks. After all, bonds pay investors a regular fixed income, and their prices are much less volatile than those of stocks. Conversely, a stock is low-risk for the issuing company, but it's high-risk for investors.

When performing capital budgeting, __________ incurred by a project are irrelevant to future investment decisions.
m_a_m_a [10]

Question:

When performing capital budgeting, __________ incurred by a project are irrelevant to future investment decisions.

A) Opportunity costs

B) Depreciation

C) Sunk costs

D) Taxes

Answer:

The correct answer is C) Sunk Costs      

Explanation:

Capital Budgeting is the art (most applicable to corporate persons) of planning expenditure that will be incurred in the future, especially on long term assets.

The reason you cannot factor Sunk Cost into a Capital Budget is because of  its very nature.

Sunk Costs refer to monies for items that have already been expended and can never be recovered. If it can never be recovered and has <u>already</u>  been incurred, it has no role to play in future considerations especially when the purpose of Capital Budgetting is considered.

The primary purpose of a Capital Budget is that it helps to further evaluate the inflow against the outflow of an investment to check whether or not the return is acceptable.

Every other option given in the question above are items that have futuristic qualities.

A 30-year maturity bond making annual coupon payments with a coupon rate of 12% has (Macauley) duration of 11.54 years and conve
dsp73

The price of the bond if the yield to maturity falls to 7%, based on the period and amount will be $1,620.45.

<h3>What is the price of the bond at 7%?</h3>

We shall assume that the bond has a face value of $1,000.

The coupon is:

= 12% x 1,000

= $120

The price is:
= (Coupon x Present value interest factor of annuity, 30 years, 7%) + Face value of bond / ( 1 + rate) ^ number of periods

= (120 x 12.409) + (1,000 / (1 + 7%)³⁰)

= $1,620.45
