The parents of a young child decide to make annual deposits into a college savings account. The first deposit will be made on he

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The amount of the equal, annual deposits made on birthdays 5 through 15 is $3,970.58

Explanation:

First, let's calculate the present value of the college expenses on her 17th birthday (a year before college) using NPV formula

NPV(9%, 20000...32000) = $82,839.69

Now, its value on 15th birthday should be equal to 82,839.69 / (1 + 9%)² = $69,724.51

Using the PMT formula, we can calculate the annual amount they have to invest for 11 years to get to this sum at 9% annual rate

PMT(rate = 9%, nper = 11, pv = 0, fv = 69,724.51, 0) = $3,970.58

Frank is lending $1,000 to Sarah for two years. Frank and Sarah agree that Frank should earn a 2 percent real return per year. I

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

a. 23%.

b. Frank should charge Sarah 2% more than the inflation rate.

Explanation:

a. Find the nominal rate of interest.

To find this value we must follow this equation:

$NI=RI+IR$

Where NI = Nominal Interest, RI= Real Interest, and IR= Inflation Rate.

a.1. Find the real interest rate.

The problem statement gives us this value: 2% real return per year, as agreed by Sarah and Frank.

a.2. Find the inflation rate.

Here we follow this equation:

$IR=(\frac{CPI_{F} -CPI_{B} }{CPI_{B} } )*100$

Where:

CPI(F) is the CPI of the final year, in this case, it would be 121 (the expected CPI for two years, which is the established loan time).

CPI (B) is the CPI of the base year, that is, the CPI in force at the time that Frank makes the loan, 100 in this case.

We replace these values:

$IR=(\frac{121-100}{100} )*100$

$IR=(\frac{21}{100} )*100$

$IR=0.21*100$

$IR=21%$

The inflation rate equals 21%.

a.3. Replace in the equation of the nominal rate of interest.

$NI=RI+IR$

$NI=0.02+0.21$

$NI=0.23$

So, the nominal rate of interest Frank should charge Sarah equals 23%.

b. Find out how much Frank should charge Sarah (regarding inflation and considering that it is unknown).

The inflation rate reduces the return expected by Frank. Therefore, the nominal interest rate charged must be higher than the inflation rate, in order to ensure a positive real returns. In this case, since it is not known exactly what that inflation rate is, Frank must charge 2% (expected return) above what the inflation rate can record.

Hence, the short answer is: Frank should charge Sarah 2% more than the inflation rate.

"Kim wants to run for the U.S. Senate. Kim experimented with drugs in the 1960s, but has not used any drugs in more than 45 year

marishachu [46]

Answer:

The communication behaviour that kim is engaged in is selective self-disclosure.

Explanation:

Self-disclosure is a process of communication by which one person reveals information about themselves to another. The information can be descriptive or evaluative, and can include thoughts, feelings, aspirations, goals, failures, successes, fears, and dreams, as well as one's likes, dislikes, and favorites.

Selective self-disclosure means self-disclosure but providing only that information which will create a positive image of one person on another.

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

B) $27,500.

Explanation:

The computation of the amount credited to the allowance account is shown below:

= Sales during the 2017 year × estimated uncollectible percentage

= $2,750,000 × 1%

= $27,500

By multiplying the sales with the estimated uncollectible percentage we can get the amount credited to the allowance account and the same is to be considered

Hence, the correct option is B

Hoochie [10]

Suppose $250,000 is used to establish an annuity that earns 6%, compounded quarterly, and pays $6000 at the end of each quarter. It will take about 120 quarters until the account balance reaches $0.

Amount invested (Present value) = $250000

Quarterly payment (At the end of each quarter) (P) = $4500

Interest Rate (Quarterly) (r) = 6% /4

= 1.5% = 0.015

A number of quarters (n) = ?

Future value at the end = 0

Present value of Annuity formula:

Present value = P × $(1-(1+r))^{(-n)} / r$
