Answer:

Kurt will have a smaller account value than Jeff will

Explanation:

The formula for calculating future value = A (B / r)

B = [(1 + r)^n] - 1

Jeff : $3000 x [(1.05^3 - 1 ) / 0.05] = $9457.50

Kurt :$3000 x [(1.03^3 - 1 ) / 0.03] = $9272.70

Jeff would have a higher account value than Kurt

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

3.020

Explanation:

Morrit Corporation

interest amount = $1,080,000*.11 = $118,800

Net profit = 3% *$6,000,000= $180,000

Net profit + tax = profit before tax =

180000/.75 = 240000

Profit before tax + Interest = Earning before interest and tax

= $240,000+$118,800 = $358,800

TIE ratio= EBIT/Interest = $358,800/118,800

= 3.020

Therefore the TIE ratio is 3.020

irina [24]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the given question is shown below:-

Total Contributions = Monthly contribution + Amount invested in Ferdinand’s 401(k)

= $250 + $125

= $375  

1. Future Value = PMT [((1 + r)n - 1) ÷ r

Future value = 375 × ((1 + 0.03 ÷ 12) × 12 × 40 - 1) ÷ (0.03 ÷ 12)

= $347,272

2. Ferdinand deposit = Given Amount × Total number of months in a year × Number of years

= $250 × 12 Months × 40 Years

= $120,000

3. The Amount put in by the employer = 50% of $250 ×Total number of months in a year × Number of years

= $125 × 12 Months × 40 Years

= $60,000

4. Interest = Future value - Ferdinand deposit - The Amount put in by the employer

= $347,272 - $120,000 - $60,000

= $167,272

We simply applied the above formulas
