Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: machines; new technologies

Explanation: A number of factors all coalesced into the great depression of 1929. This was a time followed by the swing era (1933 - 1947)— the period of time when big band swing music was the most popular music in the US. However, there were a variety of economic changes in great depression that helped Americans cope with the undue hardship caused by the depression and the war that followed. At this time of slow growth, American labor industries increasingly turned to machines and new technologies to enable the economy run more efficiently which helped saved time in producing goods or delivery of services, contributing to the overall profits of the American businesses. It also contributed to the efficiency of a business's output rate, allowing for larger quantities of products to be moved or of services to be rendered.

Savatey [412]

Answer:

     = 18.7%

Explanation:

<em>A portfolio is a collection of assets/ investment. The return on a portfolio is the weighted average of all the return of the individual assets weighted according to the percentage of total funds allocated to each assets.</em>

Expected return on portfolio:

E(R) =(  Wa*Ra) + (Wb*Rb)

  Wa   =   56%   ,   Wb = 100-56 = 44%

Ra = 12%, Rb = 24%

E(R) = (0.56*24%) + (0.44× 12%)

       = 18.7%

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

We can withdraw an equivalent annuity of  $ 293.658 each year.

Explanation:

We build a scheduled table to know the future value of the gradient investment

Time    Beg        Gradient          Total             Rate Ending

1  $100.00   $100.00  $100.00           0.060   $106.00

2  $106.00   $100.00   $206.00   0.060   $218.36

3  $218.36   $200.00   $418.36   0.060   $443.46

4  $443.46   $300.00   $743.46   0.060   $788.07

5  $788.07   $400.00   $1,188.07   0.060   $1,259.36

6  $1,259.36   $500.00   $1,759.36   0.060   $1,864.92

7  $1,864.92   $600.00   $2,464.92   0.060   $2,612.81

Then, we solve for the equivalent annuity-due:

PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate}(1+rate) = C\\

PV 2,613

time 7

rate 0.06

2612.81 \div \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-7} }{0.06}(1+0.06) = C\\

C  $ 293.658

Itis annuity due as we will going to retire cash in a 6 year period for  seven times. (at each year-end during 6 years thus, annuity-due
