Answer:
Person B
Explanation:
If Person A begins investing $3,000 a year from age 20 to 29 he would have invested a total of $30,000. Each year he earns 8% of the amount in his account, so the first year he earns $3,000 x 8% = $240, the second year $6,000 x 8 = $ 480...and so on. Total interest earned are $99,600 from the age of 20 thru 65, because at age 30 no more money in invested but the $30,000 continues to earn 8% interest until the age of 65.
Person A earns a total of $30,000 + $99,600 = $129,600
Person B begins investing $3,000 a year at age 30 and invests a total of $108,00 from age 30 thru 65. Interest of 8% also needs to be considered from age 30 thru age 65. Total interest earned is $159,840.
Person B earns a total of $108,000 + $159,840 = $267,840
So Person B would earn more money at the age of 65.
PS: Spreadsheet attached.
Based on the economic data given, and the fact that the government is running a deficit, the equilibrium GDP will be 336.67.
If government spending is cut to balance the budget, the new level of GDP will be 321.67.
The effect of balancing the budget will be a decrease in GDP and a slower recovery from the recesssion.
<h3>What is the equilibrium GDP?</h3>
This is given by the variable "Y" so we can find the equilibrium GDP by solving for it:
C = 50 + .7(Y – T)
Y = C + I + G - XN
C = Y - I - G + XN
Solving gives:
Y - I - G + XN = 50 + .7(Y – T)
Y - 40 - 35 + 10 = 50 + 0.7Y - 14
Y - 0.7Y = 50 + 40 + 35 - 10 - 14
0.3Y = 101
Y = 101/0.3
= 336.67
<h3>What is the new GDP if government spending is cut?</h3>
Government spending will have to be cut to a size that would make it equal to taxes so government spending becomes 20.
New GDP becomes:
= C + I + G - XN
= ( 50 + .7(Y – T)) + 40 + 20 - 10
= 271.67 + 40 + 20 - 10
= 321.67

Based on the information the current value of those 200 shares is $40,023.03.
Using this formula
Future value=Principal(1+rate)^Time
Where:
Principal=$7,800
Rate=14.6% or .145
Time =12 years
Let plug in the formula
Future value=$7,800 × (1 + .146)^12
Future value=$7,800×(1.146)^12
Future value=$7,800×5.131159
Future value= $40,023.03
Inconclusion the current value of those 200 shares is $40,023.03.

Answer: short-run fluctuations in economic activity.
Explanation:
The business cycle helps explain fluctuations in economic activity within a period of time which makes it a short run measure. The cycle consists of expansion phases and recession phases which show that economic activity seems to expand and then go into a recession overtime.
The lowest point in the recession is called the depression and when this happens, the economy hits rock bottom and starts to expand after some time. This is what happened with the Great Depression and the Great Recession. The height of the expansion is the peak and here, the economy is at its most successful.
