Answer:

(a) $18,000

(b) $3,600

Explanation:

(a) Profit would be:

= (No. of shares × Undervalued) - (No. of shares × Overvalued)

= (1,800 × $16) - (1,800 × $6)

= $28,800 - $10,800

= $18,000

(b) Only half your order will be filled.

With rationing (and being an uninformed investor) we expect our profits:

= (No. of shares × Undervalued) - (No. of shares × Overvalued)

= (900 × $16) - (1,800 × $6)

= $14,400 - $10,800

= $3,600

Your $6100 investment grows to $12200 over the course of 9 years compounded quarterly. what interest rate did you receive on you
k0ka [10]
The formula is
A=p (1+r/k)^kt
A future value 12200
P present value 6100
R interest rate ?
K compounded quarterly 4
T time 9 years

Set the equation and solve for r (interest rate)
12200=6100 (1+r/4)^(4×9)
Divide both sides by 6100
12200/6100=(1+r/4)^(36)
2=(1+r/4)^(36)
Take the root of 36 for both sides
2^(1/36)=1+r/4
R= (2^(1/36)-1)×4
R=(2^(1÷36)−1)×4
R=0.0778×100
R=7.78%

Hope it helps!

About how many people in the u.s. claim arab ancestry?
jenyasd209 [6]

About three million people in the u.s. claim Arab ancestry

Who are Arabs?

  • A sizable ethnic group, the Arabs are also referred to as the Arab people, and they are mostly found in the Arab world, which includes parts of Western Asia, North Africa, the Horn of Africa, and the western Indian Ocean islands (including the Comoros).
  • A sizable number of Arabs have also emigrated to other parts of the world, including the Americas, Western Europe, Turkey, Indonesia, and Iran.
  • The word "Arab" is often used in modern contexts to describe people who are both speakers of Arabic and members of that ethnic group.
  • Arabs are also referred to as a socio-ethnic group in a source that contrasts Arabs in Europe with other socio-ethnic communities.
  • This contrasts with the more limited conventional meaning, which only refers to the offspring of Arabian tribes.
