The distribution of wealth on Earth is such that the richest 1% are wealthier than the rest of the 99% combined so this is <u>True</u>.

<h3>How is income distributed?</h3>

The top 1% of the human population are so wealthier that they own more than the combined assets of the other 99%.

This was confirmed in 2016 by Oxfam, and the scary part is that this trend is set to continue.

(A)856

(B)1,122.04

(C) and (D) thre present value will be 800

856

800* (1+ 0.07)^{5} = Ammount

1,122.041358

How much more is a perpetuity of $1,000 worth than an annuity of the same amount for 20 years? Assume an interest rate of 10% an
Veronika [31]

Answer:

The perpetuity is worth $1486.43 more than the ordinary annuity

Explanation:

A perpetuity that with an annual cash inflow or cash outflow payable for a foreseeable future - for an infinite number of period

The present value of a perpetual annuity is calculated as

PV= A/r

PV = 1000/0.1

PV =&10,000

On the other hand, an annuity with  annual cash inflows or cash outflows for certain number of years is called an ordinary annuity.

The present value of an ordinary annuity is determined as follows:

PV = (1 - (1+r)^n)/r   × A

     = (1-(1+0.1)^(-20))/0.1 × 1000

    = 8.5135  × 1000

   = 8513.56

Difference in PV =  10,000 - 8513.56

                            = $1486.43

The perpetuity is worth $ 1,486.43 more than the ordinary annuity

Which may occur as a result of a decrease in the price of laptop computers?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

<em>Increase in quantity demanded</em>

Explanation:

Demand for a product is the different quantities of that product that consumers are willing and ready to pay for at different prices.

There are many factors that affect the demand for a product; these include change in the price of the product, price of related products, change in consumer income, change in fashion, taste and style.

<u><em>Change in quantity demand</em></u>

Specifically, the law of demand states that there is an inverse relationship between quantity demand and its price. Change in quantity demand is a movement along the demand curve.

<em>A change in the price of a product will produce an opposite change in  the quantity that consumers  are willing to buy assuming all other factors do not change. This is referred as to as change in quantity demand. This can either be an increase or a decrease depending on the direction of the price movement.</em>

<u><em>Change in demand</em></u>

<em>Change in demand is the shift in the demand curve to either right or left.  This can be attributed to any of the factors that affect demand other the price e.g change in income.</em>

<em>Therefore a decrease in the price of laptop computers will lead to an increase in the quantity demanded</em> .
