Answer: Apportionment

Explanation: Apportionment is also known as analogous estimating which is used when projects closely follow past projects in features and costs. As a result, in addition to good historical data, estimates regarding project feature, cost and duration can be made quickly, with little effort and reasonable accuracy to various segments of the current project. The method of apportionment is very common in projects that are relatively standard, but with little variation or customisation.

Reika [66]

Answer:

The answer is: D) Get massive loans from the Fed

Explanation:

Remember the phrase too big to fail? Most American "big" banks were at the brink of bankruptcy and the whole global financial system was about to collapse. At this point the US government loaned them money, tons of money, to avoid them from going bankrupt. In order for big banks to be eligible for those bank loans, they had to become bank holding companies.

A bond has a face value of $1,000, a coupon of 4% paid annually, a maturity of 30 years, and a yield to maturity of 7%. What rat
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

-11.8%

Explanation:

the key to answer this question is to remember that valuation of a bond depends basically of calculating the present value of a series of cash flows, so let´s think about a bond as if you were a lender so you will get interest by the money you lend (coupon) and at the end of n years you will get back the money you lend at the beginnin (principal), so applying math we have the bond value given by:

price=\frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{1} }+ \frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{2} } \frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{3} }+...+\frac{principal+principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{n} }

so in this particular case that one year later there are 29 years to maturity so we have:

price=\frac{1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{1} }+ \frac{1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{2} } \frac{1000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{3} }+...+\frac{1,000+1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{30} }

price=553.6638

so as we have a higher rate the investment has the next return:

return=\frac{553.66}{627.73} -1

return=-11.8\%
