Answer:

We notice that the more the fees increase for a constant rate of return, the number of years it takes to double on the investment also increases. For example;

a). 15.6 years

b). 20 years

c). 28 years

Explanation:

The rule of 70 is a formula that can be used to estimate the number of years it will take an investment to double up.The formula is expressed as;

Number of years to double=70/Annual rate of return

a). Given;

Annual rate of return per unit of investment=5%

Annual fees per unit of investment=0.5%

Net rate of return=Annual rate of return-Annual fees=(5%-0.5%)=4.5%

Replacing;

Number of years to double=70/Net rate of return

=70/4.5=15.555 to nearest tenth=15.6 years

b). Given;

Annual rate of return per unit of investment=5%

Annual fees per unit of investment=1.5%

Net rate of return=Annual rate of return-Annual fees=(5%-1.5%)=3.5%

Replacing;

Number of years to double=70/Net rate of return

=70/3.5=20.0 to nearest tenth=20 years

c). Given

Annual rate of return per unit of investment=5%

Annual fees per unit of investment=2.5%

Net rate of return=Annual rate of return-Annual fees=(5%-2.5%)=2.5%

Replacing;

Number of years to double=70/Net rate of return

=70/2.5=28.0 to nearest tenth=28 years

We notice that the more the fees increase for a constant rate of return, the number of years it takes to double on the investment also increases

Consider the market for labor depicted by the demand and supply curves that follow. Use the calculator to help you answer the fo
vekshin1

Answer:

Suppose a senator considers introducing a bill to legislate a minimum hourly wage of $12.50.

Wage           Labor Demanded            Labor Supplied

$12.50               375,000                           625,000

This will result in a surplus of labor (625,000 higher than 375,000)

Which of the following statements are true?

  • Binding minimum wages cause structural unemployment.  As with all price floors, a deadweight loss results, because the quantity supplied is much greater than the quantity demanded. In this case, the price of labor is the wage, and the deadweight loss = structural unemployment
  • In the absence of price controls, a surplus puts downward pressure on wages until they fall to the equilibrium. Since a labor surplus exists, the price of labor should start to decrease in order to match the equilibrium price.
  • If the minimum wage is set at $12.50, the market will not reach equilibrium. The quantity supplied of labor is much greater than the quantity demanded for labor resulting in a surplus.

Which clause protects proceeds from creditors of the beneficiary?
Inga [223]
The answer is spendthrift clause. It is a trust that is produced for the benefit of a person that gives an independent trustee full authority to make decisions as to how the trust funds may be spent for the benefit of the beneficiary. Creditors of the beneficiary usually cannot reach the money in the trust, and the funds are not actually under the control of the beneficiary. Also,  it prevents the beneficiary's reckless spending of benefits.
