Answer:
The answer is: C) PV of a perpetuity = StartFraction r Over Upper C EndFraction (I guess this means PV = r / C, which is FALSE)
Explanation:
The formula for calculating the present value of a perpetuity is:
PV = C / r
Where PV = Present Value, C = cash flow, r = discount rate.
A perpetuity is a stream of equal cash flows that lasts forever (perpetually).
The formula for calculating the present value of a perpetuity is simple, so there is no reason to spend time calculating the present value of each cash flow, since there are infinite cash flows.
A consol bond s a type of perpetuity issued by the British government (also by the US government)
Question:
If the marginal product of capital net depreciation equals 8 percent, the rate of growth of population equals 2 percent, and the rate of labor-augmenting technical progress equals 2 percent, to reach the Golden Rule level of the capital stock, the ____ rate in this economy must be _____.
A) saving; increased
B) population growth; decreased
C) depreciation; decreased
D) total output growth; decreased
Answer
The correct answer is A) <u>Saving</u> rate of the economy must be i<u>ncreased</u> in order for the economy to reach the Golden Rule Level of the Capital Stock.
Explanation
Golden Rule Level of the Capital Stock is the level at which
MPK = δ,
Where MPK is Marginal Product; and δ the depreciation rate;
so that the marginal product of capital equals the depreciation rate.
In the Solow growth model, a <em>high saving rate results in a large steady-state capital stock and a high level of steady-state output.</em> A low saving rate results to a small steady state capital stock and a low level of steady-state output. Higher saving leads to faster economic growth only in the short run. An increase in the saving rate raises growth until the economy reaches the new steady state. That is, if the economy retains a high saving rate, it will also maintain a large capital stock and a high level of output, but it will not maintain a high rate of growth forever .
Answer:
11.42 %
Explanation:
The formula for calculating percentage error
percentage error = <u>observed value - actual value x 1</u>00
actual value
Percentage error = <u>3.9- 3.5</u> x 100
3.5
Percentage error = <u>0.4 x 100</u>
3.5
Percentage error =0.1142 x 100
Percentage error = 11.42 %
Answer:
1.54
Explanation:
As we know that
The DuPont Analysis is
ROE = Profit margin × Total assets turnover × Equity multiplier
So we considered this formula for Manufacturer A and Manufactured B
Profit margin × Total assets turnover × Equity multiplier = Profit margin × Total assets turnover × Equity multiplier
2.0% × 1.7 × 4.9 = 2.3% × Asset turnover × 4.7
16.66% = 10.81% × Asset turnover
So, the asset turnover is 1.54
We equate this formula for both Manufactured A and manufactured B
