Answer:
36 years 4 months and 2 days
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Monthly payment = $300
Rate of return, i = 9% = 0.09
Future value = $1,000,000
Now,
we know
Future value = Monthly payments ×
or
1000000 = $300 ×
or
or
1.0075ⁿ - 1 = 25
or
1.0075ⁿ = 26
ln( 1.0075ⁿ) = ln(26)
or
n × ln( 1.0075 ) = ln(26)
or
n = [tex]\frac{ \ln (26) }{ \ln( 1.0075 ) }[tex]
or
n = 436.04 months
or
n = 36 years 4 months and 2 days
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that:
a)
1$ = Can $1.12
It takes a value of 1 U.S dollar to have 1.12 Canadian dollars. This signifies that the U.S dollar is worth more than Canadian dollars.
b)
Assuming that the absolute Purchasing Power Parity PPP holds,
Since 1$ = Can $1.12, the cost in the United States of an Elkhead beer, if the price in Canada is Can$2.85 can be determined to be:
=
= $2.545
c)
Yes, the U.S. dollar is selling at a premium relative to the Canadian dollar.
This is because we are being told that the spot exchange rate for the Canadian dollar is Can $1.12 & in six (6) months time the forward rate will be Can $1.14.
d)
The U.S dollar is expected to appreciate in value because it is trading at a premium in the forward market.
e)
Canada has higher interest rates. This determined by using the formula:
=
where; n= numbers of years = 6 month/12 month = 0.5 year
Then;
= 0.0356
= 3.56%
