Consider the following information on large-company stocks for a period of years. Series Arithmetic Mean Large-company stocks 12.1 % Inflation 3.4A. What was the arithmetic average annual return on large-company stocks in nominal terms? B. What was the arithmetic average annual return on large-company stocks in real terms?

a. 12.1 %

b. 8.41%

Explanation:

a. The arithmetic average annual return on large-company stocks in nominal terms is already stated in the table as 12.1%.

This is because it was not yet adjusted for inflation making it nominal.

b. The arithmetic average annual return on large-company stocks in real terms can be expressed by;

Real Return = [(1 + Nominal rate) / (1 + Inflation rate)] - 1

= (( 1 + 12.1%) / ( 1 + 3.4%)) - 1

= (1.121/1.034) - 1

= 1.0841 - 1

= 8.41%

the answer is either c or b, i cant be to sure tho.

hi : ) i found this so i hope this !

"we first find value of tax in dollars.

the difference between the two prices   is: 23. 54 - 22 = 1.54

therefore the sales tax in dollars is 1.54

the tax % will be   (amount of tax / original cost price ) × 100

(1.54 / 22) × 100  → (0.07) × 100 =   7

so the tax rate is 7%

we can double check the answer.

7 % of 22   → (7/100) × 22 → 0.07 × 22 = 1.54

22 + 1.54 = 23.54"
