Suppose the real risk-free rate is 2.20%, the average expected future inflation rate is 1.50%, and a maturity risk premium of 0.10% per year to maturity applies, i. e., MRP = 0.10%(t), where t is the number of years to maturity, hence the pure expectations theory is NOT valid. What rate of return would you expect on a 5-year Treasury security? Disregard cross-product terms, i. e., if averaging is required, use the arithmetic average.

Problem 9-5. net present value and taxes [lo 1, 2] penguin productions is evaluating a film project. the president of penguin estimates that the film will cost $20,000,000 to produce. in its first year, the film is expected to generate $16,500,000 in net revenue, after which the film will be released to video. video is expected to generate $10,000,000 in net revenue in its first year, $2,500,000 in its second year, and $1,000,000 in its third year. for tax purposes, amortization of the cost of the film will be $12,000,000 in year 1 and $8,000,000 in year 2. the company’s tax rate is 35 percent, and the company requires a 12 percent rate of return on its films. required what is the net present value of the film project? to simplify, assume that all outlays to produce the film occur at time 0. should the company produce the film?

If the family’s net monthly income is 7,800 what percent of the income is spent on food clothing and housing?

Amonopolist’s inverse demand function is p = 150 – 3q. the company produces output at two facilities; the marginal cost of producing at facility 1 is mc1(q1) = 6q1, and the marginal cost of producing at facility 2 is mc2(q2) = 2q2.a. provide the equation for the monopolist’s marginal revenue function. (hint: recall that q1 + q2 = q.)mr(q) = 150 - 6 q1 - 3 q2b. determine the profit-maximizing level of output for each facility.output for facility 1: output for facility 2: c. determine the profit-maximizing price.$
