Question 5 • Mathematics for Data and Financial Literacy

Which investment is a fixed investment?

Answer
A
an account with a variable interest rate and no fixed term for withdrawal
B
a fund that invests in a variety of stocks, with returns based on market performance
C
a rental property, with income based on rental agreements
D
an investment that pays a fixed interest rate semiannually and returns the principal at maturity

Explanation

A fixed investment has terms such as a stated interest rate and a set maturity date. Choice D pays a fixed rate semiannually and returns the principal at maturity, so its return terms are established in advance. The other choices depend on rental income, stock-market performance, or a variable interest rate.
