Phineas and Ferb agree to split the rent for their new apartment. Instead of each paying half each month, they will alternate who pays the total rent each month. Phineas will start next month and make the payments for months 1, 3, 5,.... Ferb will make the rent payments for months 2, 4, .... Assuming a positive interest rate, is this a fair agreement? If yes, briefly explain why. If no, determine who is in the better position and briefly explain why.

- Suppose you buy a share of stock for $10 and sell it for $20; your profit is thus $10. If that happens within a year, your rate of return is an impressive 100% ($10/$10 = 1). If it takes five years, what would be the rate of return on your investment? (See Figure.)arrow_forwardEconomics In 54 months time you expect a cash flow of $3 million. Calculate it’s present value (PV) given the 54-month interest rate is currently 4%, with a volatility of 120 basis points (bps). Explain, using equations with properly-defined mathematical notation, how to map this cash flow to vertices at 4 years and 5 years, in such a way that the volatility of the present value of the mapped cash flow remains at 120 bps. Suppose the 4-year rate has a volatility of 110 bps and the 5-year rate has a volatility of 150 bps, and their correlation is 0.9. How much should be mapped to each vertex. Give your answer in PV terms and round your answers to whole $ values.arrow_forwardWhat's the value to you of a $1,000 face- value bond with an 8% coupon rate when your required rate of return is 15 percent?arrow_forward
- 10. Suppose the interest rate is 5% and that you are to receive three annual payments of $10,000, with the first payment one year from now, the second payment two years from now, and the third payment three years from now.

The future value of her money one year from now is $ As the interest rate (Enter your response as a whole number.) the future value of Angela's $5,000 savings will increase.arrow_forwarddo fastarrow_forward
- Suppose the interest rate is 10%. If $100 is invested at this rate today, how much will it be worth after one year? After two years? After five years? What is the value today of $100 paid one year from now? Paid two years from now? Paid five years from now?arrow_forwardQuestion 4 The equivalent rate of interest for a discount rate of 10.5% for 60 days is 104.9825%. Hint: An interest rate r and discount rate d are said to be equivalent if these two simple rates give the same present value for an amount due in the future. Thus, r = d/(1 - dt) and d = r/(1 + rt)arrow_forward12. Vanessa is working for a marketing firm making $60,000 per year but considers starting her own marketing company. Vanessa has determined that to launch the business, she needs to invest $100,000 of her own funds. She currently makes 6% return on her money while it is in the bank, so if she invests in this business, she will be giving up $6000 ($100,000x.06) in interest each year. The annual cost of running the business will include $70,000 for the rent of the office space, $210,000 for employee wages, and $5,000 for materials and utilities. Vanessa plans to manage the business, which means that she will have to quit her current job. a. Which costs above are considered explicit costs? Which costs are considered implicit costs? b. What is Vanessa's explicit cost per year? C. What is Vanessa's implicit cost per year?arrow_forward
- Suppose that the interest rate at which Joanne can borrow and lend is 10 percent per year, but she can earn $22,000 with a high school degree. Her tuition and books at college cost $6,000 and her living expenses are $15,000 per year. Savings are deposited at the end of the year they are earned and receive (compound) interest at the end of each subsequent year. Similarly, the loans are taken out at the end of the year in which they are needed, and interest does not accrue until the end of the subsequent year. Now that the interest rate has risen, should Joanne go to college or go to work?arrow_forwardJoanne has just completed high school and is trying to determine whether to go to communtiy college for two years or go directly to work. Her objective is to maximize the savings she will have in the bank five years from now. If she goes directly to work, she will earn $18,500 per year for each of the next five years. If she goes to community college, for each of the next two years she will earn nothing—indeed, she will have to borrow $6,000 each year to cover tuition and books. This loan must be repaid in full three years after graduation. If she graduates from community college, in each of the subsequent three years, her wages will be $35,000 per year. Joanne’s total living expenses and taxes, excluding tuition and books, equal $15,000 per year. Joanne should go to (Click to select) work junior college , since the total value of Joanne's savings would be $__ if she goes directly to work and $__ if she goes to community college.arrow_forwardA zero-coupon bond is a bond that is sold for less than its face value (that is, it is discounted) and has no periodic interest payments. Instead, the bond is redeemed for its face value at maturity. Thus, in this sense, interest is paid at maturity. Suppose that a zero-coupon bond sells for $8,500 and can be redeemed in 20-years for its face value of $38,000. What is the annual compound rate of return? Annual compound rate = % (Round to two decimal places as needed.)arrow_forward
