<span>a. the shortest possible time to complete an activity.
Crash Time is the shortest possible time it takes to complete a job or activity by expediting everything associated with the job or activity. It's a good example of the time/money trade off in that you can frequently decrease the time something takes by spending more money. So let's look at the choices and see why they're right or wrong.
a. The shortest possible time to complete an activity.
* This pretty much is the same as the definition, so it's the correct choice.
b. The time necessary to complete an activity under abnormal conditions.
* This answer raises the question "What's an abnormal condition?" Does everything go right and things go faster? Does everything go wrong and it's gonna take a long time? In my experience both extremes are "abnormal". So this is a wrong choice.
c. The difference between earliest start time and earliest finish time.
* This answer is lacking the idea of a job or task. Earliest start time of what? So it's a wrong choice.
d. The activity time associated with any management intervention.
* So a phone call from management would be crash time? The boss walking past to see how things are doing? This is a very open ended and ambiguous answer. So it's wrong.</span>
Answer:
Annual deposit = $1,661.497
Explanation:
This investment scheme been considered is known as sinking funds.
<em>A Sinking Fund involves saving a series of equal amount periodically invested at certain rate of interest to accumulate a target amount in the future.</em>
The amount to be deposited periodically can be determined as follows:
A= FV/ ((1+r)^(n) - 1)/n)
A- annual deposit, FV- future value - $12,500 r- 9%, n- 6
So we can apply this formula as follows:
A = 12,500/ (1.09^(6)-1)/0.09
A = $1,661.497
The best option for her to choose is the one called Anual Compounding. With the rest of the compoundings she will have to pay more money. With a semi-annual rate she wil have to pay almost 1000 dollars more than in an anual compounding. With a quarterly period she will have to pay almost the same amount as a semi-annual period. Now with a monthly period she would have to pay almost 2000 dollars of interest.
