Ans. 15 -
Ans. 14 a. - The assets which can be traded are known as financial instruments. These assets can also be regarded as capital packages which can be traded. Financial Instruments provide an efficient transfer and flow of capital. These assets can either be cash, or a contract to deliver/receive cash, or evidence to the ownership of an entity.
14. b. i. The interest for year 1 will be - TSZ ((500,000,000*(1.148^1)) - 500,000,000) = 74,000,000
The interest for year 2 will be - TSZ ((500,000,000*(1.148^2)) - 500,000,000) = 158,952,000
The interest for year 3 will be - TSZ ((500,000,000*(1.148^3)) - 500,000,000) = 256,476,896
The interest for year 4 will be - TSZ ((500,000,000*(1.148^4)) - 500,000,000) = 368,435,476
The premium on the shares will be = ((500,000,000*1.02)-500,000,000) = 10,000,000
ii.
iii. The reason for there being a difference in the amounts is because that even though the rate of interest remains same, the principal to be paid back, reduces on a monthly basis. Thus, the interest amounts remains the same, but the principal changes due to repayment.
