<span> <span>Solution:

A = P(1+r)^n

where,
A = amount
P = principal
r = rate of interest
n = number of years

Putting values in the formula,

8850 = 2750(1+0.08)^n

8850/2750 = (1+0.08)^n
log will be used to solve "n" as it is in the exponent form, which gives,

log(8850/2750) = n log(1+0.08)

By solving, we get n = log(8850/2750) / log(1+0.08)

Using financial calculator, value comes as 15.187 rounded to 15.19.

So, he will have to wait for 15.19 years to take holidays as it will take 15.19 years to make $8850 from $2750 @ 8% annual compounding.</span> </span>

Mariana [72]

The difference is only in the strategy the company wants to use. For some market segments calculating the cost of goods sold by the permanent or periodic method may be more advantageous and allow a better monitoring of business efficiency and profitability. Companies often choose the method that best fits their organizational strategy. The periodic method, for example, as used by Kelty Industries, can be useful for greater input and output control, process optimization, consumer behavior assessment, and other advantages. But if Howe and Kelty wanted to change the calculation method, it would not affect anything, as the result would be the same regardless of the calculation, periodic or daily.

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The nominal interest rate which the bank will offer is of 10.24%

Explanation:

according to Irwin formula the bank will charge a nominal rate that ensures a real rate of 6% thus:

\frac{1+r_n}{1+ \theta} -1 =r_e

(1+r_e)(1+ \theta) -1 = r_n

1.06*1.04-1 = 0.1024 = 10.24%
