Solved in 2 steps
- The average cost of a certain model car was $22,000 ten years ago. This year the average cost is $35,000. (a) Calculate the average monthly inflation rate (fm) for this model. (b) Given the monthly rate fm, what is the effective annual rate, f, of inflation for this model? (c) Estimate what these will sell for 10 years from now, expressed in today’s dollars.Suppose that your salary is $45,000 in year one, will increase at 4%per year through year four, and is expressed in actual dollars as follows: If the general price inflation rate (f ) is expected to average 6% per year, what is the real dollar equivalent of these actual-dollar salary amounts? Assume that the base time period is year one (b = 1).Assume that in 2020, a Liberty Seated half dollar issued in 1890 was sold for $197,000. What was the rate of return on this investment?
- A company is considering buying a CNCmachine. In today’s dollars, it is estimated that themaintenance costs for the machine (paid at the endof each year) will be $25,000, $26,000, $28,000,$30,000, and $32,000 for years 1 to 5, respectively.The general inflation rate ( f ) is estimated to be5% per year, and the company will receive 13%return (interest) per year on its invested funds during the inflationary period. The company wants topay for maintenance expenses in equivalent equalpayments (in actual dollars) at the end of each ofthe five years. Find the amount of the company’spaymentsThe demand for a product during the next ten years will be such that revenues will be $100,000 the first year and will increase by $10,000 each year thereafter. If inflation is assumed to be 6% per yuear and the company uses 10% in its economic studies, what is the present worth of the revenues expressed in present dollars?The following material costs are anticipated over a 5-year period: $9,000, $11,000, $14,000, $18,000, and $23,000. It is estimated that a 4% inflation rate will apply over the time period in question. The material costs given above are expressed in then-current dollars. The time value of money, excluding inflation, is estimated to be 7%. Determine the present worth equivalent for material cost using the following: a. Then-current costs. b. Constant-worth costs.
- Suppose that your salary is $35,000 in year one, will increase at 6% per year through year 4, and is expressed in actual dollars as follows: End of Year Salary (A$) 1 $35,000 2 37,100 3 39,326 4 41,685 If the general price inflation is expected to average 8% per year for the first two years and 7% per year for the last two years, A. What is the salary in real terms year 2? B. What is the % of increase in real terms from year 1 to year 2? (expressed in decimals)With an annual inflation rate of 1.45%, how much did an item that costs $8000 now cost 3 years prior? Round your answer to the nearest cent.An item presently costs P2,000. If inflation is at the rate of 8% per year, what will be the cost of the item in three years?
- For a present sum of $620,000, determine the annual worth (in then-current dollars) in years 1 through 7 if the market interest rate is 12% per year and the inflation rate is 5% per year.The annual worth is $?A given item now costs of ₱2,000. The cost of this item in 2years time is ₱2,247.00. The inflation rate per year is __.A company is considering selling a large piece of equipment within the next few years. If the current scrap value is £2,000,000, what would the price be in 3 years time if the annual inflation rate is 2%?
