Over a 20-year period an investment of $1,000 in common stocks returned an average of 11% in nominal terms and 4% in real terms. At the end of the 20 years, the portfolio value was: a. $3,679.19 in real terms.
b. $1,800 in real terms.
c. $8,062.31 in nominal terms.
d. $7,870.59 in nominal terms.

c. $8,062.31 in nominal terms.

Explanation:

The portfolio value required which is at the end of 20 years is the future value of the amount invested initially($1000) , compounded at the nominal rate of return 11% per year as shown below:

FV=PV*(1+nominal interest rate)^n

PV=present value=initial invested=$1000

nominal interest rate=11%

n=time horizon of the investment=20 years

FV=$1000*(1+11%)^20= 8,062.31
