Answer:

Bonds

Explanation:

Bonds fit all of Marlon's needs since:

  1. He can know the interest rate up front, e.g. the coupon rate of the bond, or  the market rate if the bond is purchased at a premium or discount.
  2. Some bonds have a very remote maturity date, up to 30 years (e.g. US securities) and that is a long period of time.
  3. Even though Marlon can cash his money before the bond matures (he can sell them), it is something that takes a few days and must be done by a broker.
  4. Bonds are very secure investments, specially US securities which are considered the most secure investment in the world, but even corporate bonds are considered secure. In case the firm goes is liquidated, bondholders receive their money before preferred stockholders and common stockholders.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: A. the 99 principle

Explanation:

This strategy, often called "charm pricing," involves using pricing that ends in "9" and "99."

With charm pricing, the left digit is reduced from a round number by one cent. We come across this technique every time we make purchases but don’t pay attention. For example, your brain processes $3.00 and $2.99 as different values: To your brain $2.99 is $2.00, which is cheaper than $3.00.

How is this technique effective? It all boils down to how a brand converts numerical values. In 2005, Thomas and Morwitz conducted research they called "the left-digit effect in price cognition." They explained that, “Nine-ending prices will be perceived to be smaller than a price one cent higher if the left-most digit changes to a lower level (e.g., $3.00 to $2.99), but not if the left-most digit remains unchanged (e.g., $3.60 to $3.59).”
