Solution

Claro, vamos a resolver el problema paso a paso.

  1. Calcular el monto de retorno si se invierten $6,900 a una tasa del 5% durante un año:

    Fórmula del interés simple: Intereˊs=Principal×Tasa×Tiempo \text{Interés} = \text{Principal} \times \text{Tasa} \times \text{Tiempo}

    Donde:

    • Principal = $6,900
    • Tasa = 5% = 0.05
    • Tiempo = 1 año

    Sustituyendo los valores: Intereˊs=6,900×0.05×1=345 \text{Interés} = 6,900 \times 0.05 \times 1 = 345

    Por lo tanto, el monto de retorno es $345.

  2. Calcular el monto neto de retorno si se piden prestados 3,000aunatasadel153,000 a una tasa del 15% y se invierten 9,900 a una tasa del 7% durante un año:

    Primero, calculamos el interés ganado por la inversión de $9,900 a una tasa del 7%: Intereˊs ganado=9,900×0.07×1=693 \text{Interés ganado} = 9,900 \times 0.07 \times 1 = 693

    Luego, calculamos el interés pagado por el préstamo de $3,000 a una tasa del 15%: Intereˊs pagado=3,000×0.15×1=450 \text{Interés pagado} = 3,000 \times 0.15 \times 1 = 450

    El monto neto de retorno es la diferencia entre el interés ganado y el interés pagado: Monto neto de retorno=693450=243 \text{Monto neto de retorno} = 693 - 450 = 243

  3. Calcular la tasa neta de retorno sobre la inversión de $6,900 si se acepta la estrategia del punto b:

    La tasa neta de retorno se calcula dividiendo el monto neto de retorno por la inversión inicial y multiplicando por 100 para obtener el porcentaje: Tasa neta de retorno=(2436,900)×1003.52% \text{Tasa neta de retorno} = \left( \frac{243}{6,900} \right) \times 100 \approx 3.52\%

Por lo tanto, la tasa neta de retorno sobre la inversión de $6,900, si se acepta la estrategia del punto b, es aproximadamente 3.52%.
