kozerog [31]

Answer:

The correct option is yes,the $15,000 will double each 7.5 years.In 15 years ,it will double twice.

Explanation:

The 72 rule stipulates that the number of years it would take an investment to achieve accumulate a certain amount- future value, can be computed by dividing 72 by the interest rate earns by the investment

N, the number of years=72/9.6

=7.5 years

Invariably,in 7.5 years' when Sally would have been 10.5 years(3 years now+7.5 years) the investment would have doubled.

By another 7.5 years when Sally would have been 18 years(10.5 years +7.5 years), the investment would have doubled twice.

The 72 rule is fast-track approach to calculating the duration of an investment.

Answer:

a. estimate the amount to mitigate high impact and probable issues.

Explanation:

In project management, a contractor can be defined as an individual or organization that temporarily undertakes a project in order to create a unique result, product, and service.

A contingency is an amount of money which is added to the initial or standard cost estimate so as to cover risk exposure and any uncertainty.

When making contingency estimates, the contractor should estimate the amount to mitigate high impact and probable issues.

As a result of uncertainties that are peculiar to everything in life, most especially projects undertaken, it is very important and necessary that the contractor should set aside an amount of money to mitigate or lessen any high impact such as dwindling prices, miscellaneous, faults, repairs and other probable issues that may arise in the process of execution.
