<span>Major reasons for consumer default on loans can include: missed payments, either known or unknown. This has a negative effect on the consumer's credit score and can limit their chances to take out new lines of credit. A continuation of missed payments results in default. High interest loans are also a major reason for default.</span>
Answer:
Expected market return = 9.8%
Explanation:
The expected return on the market can be worked out using the Capital Asset Pricing Model.
<em>The capital asset pricing model is a risk-based model. Here, the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio. These changes are captured as systematic risk. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.
</em>
Under CAPM, Ke= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)
Rf-risk-free rate (treasury bill rate)- 4.4%
β= Beta - 1.20
Rm= Return on market.- ?
Applying this model, we have
11%= 4.4%+ (R-4.4%)×1.20
0.11-0.044= 1.20×(R-0.04)
0.07
= 1.20R-0.048
Collect like terms
0.07+0.048 = 1.2R
Divide both sides by 1.20
R= (0.07+0.048)/1.20
R=9.83%
Expected market return = 9.8%
Answer:
Gross profit equals $420,000
Explanation:
To get gross profit , we only discount the cost of goods sold from the Total sales
Gross profit Formula= net sales – cost of goods sold
Gross profit =$800,000- $380,000
Gross profit =$420,000
We use sales returns and allowances, sales discounts and operating expenses to get net income.
Answer:
$ 1,586.8743
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what will be the value of the certificate when it matures
Compounded annually
Principal P= 1000
Rate r=0.08
Period n = 6
Using this formula
A = P (1+r)^n
Let plug in the formula
1000 (1.08)^6
= 1586.8743
Therefore what will be the value of the certificate when it matures is $1586.8743
Answer:
Market Price $985.01
Explanation:
We have to convert the US semiannually rate to annually.

Now this is the annual rate spected for a similar US Bonds
So we are going to calculate the present value using this rate.
Present value of an annuity of 78 for 20 years at 7.9521%


PV = 768.55
And we need to add the present value ofthe 1,000 euros at this rate


Present Value = 216.4602211
Adding those two values together
$985.01
The reasoning behind this is that an american investor will prefer at equal price an US bonds because it compounds interest twice a year over the German Bonds.
