Answer:

it take 29.23 years, my salary to double.

Explanation:

To make the salary double I have to increase the value of salary by 100%. If inflation rate is 2.4 percent per year and salary increase the same rate the time period to make it double can be calculated as follow.

As every year 2.4% has compounding effect, so we will use compounding formula to solve this problem.

Target value = Existing value ( 1 + growth rate )^time period

200% = 100% ( 1 + 2.4% )^n

2 = 1 ( 1 + 0.024 )^n

2 = 1 ( 1.024 )^n

2 = 1.024^n

Taking log on both sides to solve the n

Log 2 = n Log 1.024

n = Log 2 / Log 1.024

n = 29.23 years

I will take 29.23 year to double the salary

"Good life" can be seen as the one in which a person understand and exercise their rational faculties. The word "good" can be used to show moral approval.

Sindrei [870]
Any contract Fay enters into is "voidable if the other party does not realize that Fay is incompetent".

Business contract law holds that people that have been proclaimed mentally uncouth in a courtroom may discover an agreement they go into announced void, voidable, or enforceable. The guardian is the main individual who can go into an agreement for the incompetent individual's behalf.

The kenosha company has three product lines of beer mugslong dash​a, ​b, and clong dashwith contribution margins of $ 5​, $ 4​,
Tema [17]

Answer:

break even point in units:

  • a = 11,700
  • b = 46,800
  • c = 35,100

Explanation:

beer mugs          contribution margin         expected sales

a                                $5                                   25,000

b                                $4                                  100,000

c                                $3                                   50,000

fixed costs = $351,000

if the sales proportion remains the same, we can assume a bundle of products = 1a + 4b + 3c (1 for every 25,000 units) whose contribution margin = $5 + $16 + $9 = $30

break even point = fixed costs / bundle's contribution margin = $351,000 / $30 = 11,700 bundles

break even point in units:

a = 11,700

b = 11,700 x 4 = 46,800

c = 11,700 x 3 = 35,100
