Answer:
The nominal annual percentage cost of its non-free trade credit, based on a 365-day year is 0.2795%
Explanation:
The computation of the nominal annual percentage is shown below:
= Discount rate ÷ (100 - discount rate) × ({Total number of days ÷ payable days} - discount days)
= 2% ÷ ( 100 - 2%) × (365 days ÷ 65 days - 15 days)
= 2% ÷ (98% × 7.3)
= 2% ÷ 7.154
= 0.2795%

Answer:
a. $0.09
b. $0
c. -$0.09
Explanation:
Real rate = Nominal rate - inflation rate
a. Real rate = 2% - 1%
= 1%
Change in real wage = 9 * 1% = $0.09
b. = 2% -2% = 0%
Change in real wage = 9 * 0% = 0
c. = 2% - 3%
= -1%
Change in real wage = 9 * -1% = -$0.09
In my opinion, venturing into world of Arts could be a favorable path for a person highly interested in solitary, introverted work. Visual arts such as painting and photography (nature, macro-shoots, etc) could be better choices. Literature might interest you too. The art of words would allow you to express yourself without talking to animate objects. One could pick a pen or stare at his or her computer when indulging oneself in the ARTS.
You do not have to impress others, your masterpiece could do the talking for you.
Hope this helps. Have a nice day!
If Baldwin currently pays his employees with $50/hour and he promised to give an additional performance bonus of 0.25% if the productivity goals are reached. Assuming that he has 500 employees, he needs to pay his employees:
$50 * (1+0.0025) = $50.125/hour will be the new rate of each employee,
if he has 500 employees:
500 * $50.125 = $25,062.50
He has to pay a total of $25,062.50 per hour in total.
