The Interstate Commerce Act, which applied the "Commerce Clause" of the Constitution—which gave Congress the authority "to Regulate Commerce with Foreign Nations, and among the several States"—to regulating railroad rates—was approved by the Senate and the House on February 4, 1887.

<h3>What did the Interstate Commerce Act intend to achieve?</h3>

An American federal statute known as the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887 was created to control the railroad sector, notably its monopolistic tactics. Although the Act mandated that railroad rates be "reasonable and just," it did not grant the government the authority to set particular prices. legislation passed by Congress that created the Interstate Commerce Commission, required railroads to publish minimum rates, and outlawed rebates and pools. Railroads quickly mastered the use of the Act for their own purposes, but also provided the government with a crucial tool for controlling large corporations.

With only a​ part-time job and the need for a professional​ wardrobe, Rachel quickly maxed out her credit card the summer after
choli [55]

Answer:

a. It will take her 5 years to pay for her wardrobe

b. She should shop for a new card once she is done paying for this one.

c. She should shop for a new card after finishing paying for this card since going further into debt with the current card would be a bad idea. This is due to the fact that an annual interest rate of 16% is very high. The best option would therefor to finish her payments on the credit card, then shop for a new card with a lower annual interest rate.

Explanation:

Use the formula below to determine the number of months it would take Rachel to pay off her debt;

C *{1-(1+r)^(-n×t)}/(r/n)=PV

where;

C=annuity

r=annual interest rate

n=number of compounding periods in a year

t=number of years

PV=present value

In our case;

PV=$10,574

C=$260

r=16%=16/100=0.16

n=12

t=unknown

replacing;

260*{1-(1+0.16/12)^(-12×t)}/(0.16/12)=10,574

1-(1+0.16/12)^(-12×t)={10,574×(0.16/12)}/260

1-{1.013^(-12 t)}=0.542

(1-0.542)=1.013^(-12 t)

ln 0.458=-12 t (ln 1.013)

t=-ln 0.458/12×ln 1.013

t=5

It will take her 5 years to pay for her wardrobe

b. She should shop for a new card once she is done paying for this one.
