Answer:

A deposit of 36,922.02 dollars will be equivalent to the series of emergencies deposits of 2,000 starting today.

Explanation:

we need to know the future value of the emergencies deposit and then, calculate which lump sum can generate the same amount. As the deposit are done at the beginning It will be an annuity-due:

C \times \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1}{rate}(1+r) = FV\\

C 2,000

time      36 (3 years x 12 months per year)

rate 0.045

2000 \times \frac{(1+0.045)^{36} -1 }{0.045}(1+0.045) = FV\\

FV $180,082.6885

Now we calculate the lump sum which yield this amount as well:

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  $180,082.6885

time   36.00

rate  0.045

\frac{180082.68854409}{(1 + 0.045)^{36} } = PV  

PV   36,922.02

if you purchase the bonds at $715, the nominal annual rate of return = coupon payments / bond price = ($20 + $20) / $715 = $40 / $715 = 5.59%

The nominal annual rate of return is calculated by dividing the revenue generated by an investment by the cost of the investment.

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).”
