Answer:
The Milken Company
The annual return on this investment is:
= 8.3%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Total returns at the end of 7 years = $10,000
Total investment today = 6,330
Total returns from the investment = $3,670
Annual return = $524 ($3,670/7)
= 8.3% ($524/$6,330 * 100)
b) The annual return on this investment is the total returns of $3,670 annualized to 7 years. This gives an average annual return of $524, which is then used to calculate the percentage return, weighing it against the investment cost of $6,330.
