Answer: a. deceptive, and the FTC may issue a cease-and-desist order.

Today, you borrowed $3,200 on a credit card that charges an interest rate of 12.9 percent, compounded monthly. How long will it
miskamm [114]

Answer:

<em>It will take me </em>= <em>30.99 years</em> to pay-off the borrowed amount paying $60.00 every month

Explanation:

SOLUTION:

Using the Formula: A = P(1+r/n){nt}

Where:

A= $60.00;

P = $3,200.00;

r = 12.9%;

n = 12

t =?

Substituting the values into the Formula =

$60 = $3,200(1 + 12.9%/12){12t}

= $60 = $3,200(1 + 12.9%/12){12t}

= $60.00 = $3,200.00 (1 + 0.129/12){12t}

= $60.00 = $3,200.00 (1 + 0.01075 ){12t}

= $60.00 = $3,200.00 (1.01075 ){12t}

= $60.00/$3,200.00 = $3,200.00 (1.01075 ){12t}/$3200.00

= 0.01875 = (1.01075)12t

= Using the law of logarithm

= logA^{N} = Nlog A

=12tlog(1.01075) = log0.01875

= 12log(1.01075)/(1.01075) = log0.01875/log(1.01075)

=  12t = log(0.01875)/log1.01075

= 12t = 1.7270/0.04644

Divide 12 by both sides

=12t/12 = 371.88774/12

t= 30.9898

<em>∴ 30.99 years</em>

<em>It will take me </em>= 30.99 years to pay-off the borrowed amount paying $60.00 every month

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

A) $4 million

Explanation:

The GDP is woth $4 million because GDP equals the sum of all produced goods and services, in a given year, within a country.

Inventories are part of GDP, counted as private investment, even if they are not sold. The reason for this is that firms payed someone for the inventory with the aim of earning a profit in the future, and assets that are purchased with the goal of getting economic benefit from their use, are qualified as investments.
