In year T, a US citizen buys 100 shares of Sonic on the Tokyo stock exchange at 700 yens each. Suppose the exchange rate then is

zlopas [31]

Answer:

Change in US external wealth between periods T and T +1 in dollars = -$100

Explanation:

Since nothing else changes, this implies that the exchange rate per yen is $0.01 in periods T and T +1. Therefore, we have:

Value shares of Sonic in period T in dollar = Number of shares of Sonic bought in period T * Price per share of Sonic in Yen in period T * Exchange rate per yen in periods T = 100 * 700 * $0.01 = $700

Value shares of Sonic in period T+1 in dollar = Number of shares of Sonic in period T+1 * Price per share of Sonic in Yen in period T+1 * Exchange rate per yen in period T+1 = 100 * 600 * $0.01 = $600

Change in US external wealth between periods T and T +1 in dollars = Value shares of Sonic in period T+1 in dollar - Value shares of Sonic in period T in dollar = $600 - $700 = -$100

In an effort to save money for early retirement, an environmental engineering colleague plans to deposit $1,700 per month, start

Ksju [112]

Answer:

$268,696.93

Explanation:

Where an equal amount of money is saved periodically to earn interest at a particular rate of interest to accumulate a target amount in the future , it is called a sinking fund. The purpose could be for retirement, loan repayment or asset acquisition

The sum accumulated (deposit plus interest earned) at the end of the final period is known as the Future Value (FV) of the sinking fund.

The FV is determined as follows:

FV = A × ((1+r/m)^(n× m) - 1)/(r/m))

where FV- future value, A- annual cash flow, r-rate of return, n- number of years, m- number of compounding periods in a year.

<em>so we can apply this to our question</em>

a = 1700, r - 8%= 0.08, m=4, n- 18

FV = 1,700 ×( (1+0.08/4)^(18 × 4) - 1)/(0.08/4))

= 1700 × 158.0570

=$268,696.93

The account will have $268,696.93 at he end of he 18 years

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Cheeses from England.

Explanation:

First, let us define what Marketing Mix is:

This refers to the number of strategies a company employs to promote its goods and services in the market. The four Ps of the marketing mix include Product, Price, Place and Promotion.

The goal of a marketing strategy is to create awareness among the target audience.

Feedback and surveys are ways in which a company informs its marketing mix strategy. Therefore, if it has been determined from the customer feedback from company surveys and cheese tasting that the Product the customers prefer is Cheese from England, then that is what should be produced and promoted.

It cannot be over emphasized that companies are in business because of the customers, so their opinion takes precedence, as the saying goes, customer is always right. Therefore, if the need of the customer is not met, the company will make no profits.

The company president and product director will have to do what the customer wants.
