1 answer:

Answer:

1. Lulu started saving $200/month in a 401(k) earning 6% interest compounded monthly when she was 45 years old. How much will be in her account when she retires at age 65?

Lulu made 12 x 20 = 240 payments

to calculate how much she earned we can use the future value of ordinary annuity formula:

FV annuity = payment x {[(1 + r)ⁿ - 1] / i} = $200 x {[(1 + 0.5%)²⁴⁰ - 1] / 0.5%} = $200 x 462.04 = $92,408.18

2. How much money did Lulu deposit into her account over the course of the 20 years?

240 x $200 = $48,000

3. What dollar amount of interest did her account earn?

$92,408.18 - $48,000 = $44,408.18

4. Murphy started putting $100/month into his 401(k) earning 6% APR when he was 25 years old. How much will be in his account when he retires at age 65, if interest is compounded monthly?

480 payments, again we use the same formula as in (1):

FV annuity = $100 x {[(1 + 0.5%)⁴⁸⁰ - 1] / 0.5%} = $100 x 1,991.49 = $199,149.07

5. How much money did Murphy deposit into his account over the course of the 40 years?

480 x $100 = $48,000

6. What dollar amount of interest did his account earn?

$199,149.07 - $48,000 = $151,149.07

7. Murphy's account earned how much more interest than Lulu's account?

$151,149.07 - $44,408.18 = $106,740.89

A monopolist produces a. more than the socially efficient quantity of output but at a higher price than in a competitive market.
irina [24]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

First, a monopoly produce less than the socially efficient quantity because as the figure shows, the quantity produced is determined by the intersection between the marginal cost curve (MC) and the marginal revenue curve (MR) and not by the intersection between the MC and the demand. For instance, there is a deadweight loss (shown by the figure).

Second, equilibrium price is always higher than in a competitive market because is always higher than the MC. The price is determined by the equilibrium quantity (found before) and the demand. Also, there are barries to entry and so monopolist have always price control.

mean = 6.2%

To calculate the probability that in any given year, the return on long-term corporate bonds will be greater than 10 percent ( USING THE NORM-DIST FUNCTION )

P( x > 10% ) = 1 - P(x<10%) = 1 - NORM-DIST (10,6.2,8.3,TRUE ) = 0.3235

= 32.35%
