Answer:
Total amount= $12,558.68
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Every three months, she deposits $550 in her bank account, which earns 8 percent annually but is compounded quarterly Four years later, she used the entire balance in her bank account to invest in an investment at 7 percent annually.
First, we need to calculate the total accumulated money after four years with the following formula.
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= deposit= 550
N= 16
i=0.08/4= 0.02
FV= {550*[(1.02^16)-1]}/0.02= 10,251.61
Now, we calculate the second investment:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n= 10,251.62*(1.07^3)= $12,558.68
Answer:
$3,606.49
Explanation:
the price of a zero coupon bond = maturity value / (1 + i)ⁿ
- maturity value = $10,000
- i = 6.09% / 2 = 3.045% semiannual interest rate
- n = 17 years x 2 semiannual compounding = 34 periods
the price of a zero coupon bond = $10,000 / (1 + 3.045%)³⁴ = $10,000 / 1.03045³⁴ = $10,000 / 2.772779928 = $3,606.49
the formula we used to determine the market price of a zero coupon bond is basically the present value
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": an increase in the bargaining power of suppliers of a critical input.
Explanation:
Porter's Five (5) Forces is an analysis scheme created by Harvard School Professor Michael E. Porter (<em>born in 1947</em>). The ultimate goal of this analysis is to help managers set their expectations because profitability decreases as competition increases. Three of the five forces relate to industry (horizontal) participants - <em>the threat of substitutes established rivals, and new entrants</em>. The other two relate to the vertical participants - <em>the bargaining of suppliers and consumers</em>.
In the case, as airline fuel suppliers are consolidating, this would represent the bargaining of suppliers factor in Porter's theory. They could joint to decide quantities supplied or even prices.
