Answer:

The interest rate is 0.06%

Explanation:

Step one :

Given data

final amount $1,000

initial principal balance $850

annual interest rate=?

time (in years)=5 years

Step two:

Applying the

Simple interest/Formula

A = P (1 + rt)

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = annual interest rate

t = time (in years)

Plugin our data into the formula We have

1000=850(1+r*5)

1,000=850(1+5r)

Opening bracket we have

1,000=850+4,250r

Colleting like terms we have

1000-850=4250r

250=4,250r

Dividing both sides by 4,250 we have

r=250/4250

r=0.058

Hence the interest rate is 0.06%

Answer:

0.035%

Explanation:

Using the formula for calculating simple interest.

Simple interest = Principal × Rate × Time/100

Since Amount = Principal + Interest

Interest = Amount - Principal

Interest = $1000 - $850

Interest = $150

If time = 5years

Principal = $850

To get the interest rate, we will substitute the given data into the simple interest formula to have;

$150 = ($850×Rate×5)/100

Cross multiplying

$15,000 = 425000×rate

Interest Rate = 15000/425000

Interest rate = 0.035%

The operational design of an illicit drug business can be divided into four stages of production and distribution: cultivation,
vesna_86 [32]
Retail distribution

The illegal drug business or trade primarily consists of the cultivation, manufacture, distribution and sales of prohibited drugs.

Cultivation and manufacture involves planting and harvesting prohibited drugs from plant sources (e.g. opium or marijuana) and processing the plant raw materials to produce the final product. For synthetic drugs, manufacture entails securing (sometimes by importation) of the chemicals required for the production of a certain drug (e.g. methamphetamine). Importation of the raw materials or final products might also be necessary to meet the demands.

With the final product at hand, the next step is to distribute and sell the drugs -- wholesale or retail. Wholesale distribution and sales involve large amounts (in bulk) of the illegal drugs while retail involves smaller amounts.

International trade generally a. decreases jobs. b. reduces competition. c. generates income. d. decreases productivity.
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

c. generates income

Explanation:

International trade for a country refers to exchange of goods and services beyond geographical boundaries. In short international trade refers to the business due to import and export of goods.

For example, one nation might specialize in the production of cocoa while another nation is rich in oil wells or oil reserves. The two nations can trade such resources and eliminate scarcity or abundance.

International trade leads to increased competition in the domestic market since now the producers are compelled to adhere to meet international quality standards for their products.

So, International trade generally c. generates income.
