Answer:
Real purchasing power increase= 2.16%
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
You deposit $1,900 in your savings account that pays an annual interest rate of 3.25%. The inflation rate is 1.09%.
In this example, we have two different and opposite effects. The interest rate increases your purchasing power. If the inflation rate is 0, the purchasing power will increase (in one year) 3.25%.
The inflation rate decreases the purchasing power of nominal income.
Real purchasing power increase= annual interest rate - inflation rate
Real purchasing power increase= 3.25 - 1.09= 2.16%
Answer:
This project should be rejected because the AAR is 10.68 percent.
Explanation:
The accounting rate of return of the project needs to computed,compared with the required accounting rate of return in order to decide whether the project should accepted or rejected:
Profit margin=$86,800*6%=$5208
Average operating assets=($97,500+$0)/2=$48.750
Accounting rate of return=profit margin/average operating assets*100
Accounting rate of return=$5,208/$48,750*100=10.68%
The project accounting rate of return is lower than the required accounting rate of return,hence the project should be rejected.
