Answer:

Blockbusters

Explanation:

A blockbuster represents an entertainment piece such as movies that are both financially successful and highly popular among people. To create a blockbuster, movie producers and studios will usually dedicate time and large amount of resources as well as elaborate marketing strategies to movies with the hope that the financial outcome will be large enough to offset the budget.

Investing in blockbusters are expensive so they necessitated the production of less quantity of films and concentration on producing blockbusters.

While the term blockbusters came in the 1940s, it was around 1975 after the Movie "Jaws' by Steven Spielberg that the word became more popular and widely adopted. It was followed by large franchises like Star Wars and Aliens among several others.

Assume you have $2,000 in a savings account at the beginning of the year and the price level is equal to 100. If the price level
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

$1,667.67

Explanation:

Given:

Balance in savings account at the beginning of the year = $2,000

Price level at the beginning of the year = 100

Price level at the end of the year = 120

Anything that is worth $120 in the beginning of the year is worth $100 at the end of the year.

Anything worth $1 in the beginning is worth 100/120 at the end.

So, $2,000 is worth \frac{100}{120}\times2,000 = $1,667.67 at the end of the year.

Real value of savings is close to $1,667.67.

Consider a mutual fund with $300 million in assets at the start of the year and 10 million shares outstanding. The fund invests
djyliett [7]

Answer: Start = $300 million

End = $318.59 million

Explanation:

NAV can be calculated by dividing the funds Assets net of Liabilities by the total number of outstanding shares.

At start of the year NAV is $300 million and NAV per share is therefore,

= 300 million/ 10 million

= $30 per share.

Ending NAV

During the year the fund made Investments and increased by a price of 7%

= 300 million (1 + 0.07)

= $321 million

We still have to subtract the 12b-1 fees that the fund charges though and that would result in,

= 321 million * (1 - 0.0075)

= 318.5925

= $318.59 million.

Dividing this by the total number of outstanding shares we have,

= 318.59 /10

= $31.86

$31.86 is the NAV per share at year end.
