Answer:

$ 5,507.47

Explanation:

There are two steps involved in solving this question ,first we need to determine the present of annuity of $31,000 receivable per year after retirement  at retirement date,then use that to calculate the annual contribution:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

rate is the rate of interest during retirement which is 14%

nper is the period during which the $31000 would be received which is 20

pmt is the $31000 annuity per year

fv is the future worth of the annuity which is unknown

=-pv(14%,20,31000,0)=$ 205,317.05  

The present value above is the future value of the retirement contributions

annual contribution=pmt(rate,nper,pv,-fv)=pmt(12%,15,0, 205317.05) =$ 5,507.47

Why is using money as a medium of exchange preferable to bartering?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Money as a medium of exchange is more preferable because of its less cumbersome nature.

Explanation:

Money as a medium of exchange is more suitable because of its less cumbersome nature. Money was invented because of the inefficient nature of the barter system.

Money is easily stored compared to a barter system.

Money as a medium of exchange eliminates the barter system's problem of double coincidence of wants. Barter works when you trade things you own for things you want. If for example you want a bicycle and you own a goat, you have to look for someone who wants a goat and owns a bicycle willing to make an exchange, which can be quite difficult.

Money is an acceptable medium of exchange to all parties which makes it more preferable to bartering.
