Answer:

The future value of the $200 invested yearly for 4 years at 8% is $973.32

Explanation:

The future value of an immediate annuity is given by the formula = (1+r)*[P*((1+r)^n-1)/r]

P=is the periodic payment of $200

r=rate of return=8 percent

n=number of years=4

By slotting the variables into the formula we have:

Fv=(1+0.08)*(200*((1+0.08)^4-1)/0.08)

FV=$973.32

Judging by the concept of time value of money, it is expected that the sum invested at interest would have been much more at maturity of the investment as $1 today should give a lot more than $1 in future.

Answer:

$242.10

Explanation:P= C (1+(R/N)) ^T

P= Future Value  

C= Amount invested/ present value =$200

R= interest rate of invested amount = 8%

N= periods invested per year = 1

T= the number of years the amount is invested times by the number of periods invested per year. = 4years

Substitute the above values to the formulae P=C(1+(R/N))^T

Then you get :P=200(1+0.08)^4 thereafter you compute this on a calculator as value n=1 and T= 4*1= 4, then you get the below value of $242.097792 which is rounded off to the bottom answer of

P=$242.10

for the problem you solve for P given the other values which you substitute on the formula given above as it is mentioned that the interest is awarded annually. The number of periods n is 1 because it is annually compounded and the investment earns interest on interest because there is no withdrawal being don over the years in between being invested.

By using this formula you are showing that after a year if you invest $200 with an interest rate of 8% it will be $216 then this amount plus interest for year 1. $216 will be reinvested to earn an interest of 8% for the second year which the end vale will be $233.28. For the third year again the second years amount with its interest will be reinvested for 8% interest for the third year therefore calculated as $233.28*1.08= $251.94. then for the last 4th year we invest the third years amount at an interest rate of 8% which will be calculated as $251.9424*1.08=  $272.097792 then we round off to two decimal places for the final answer $272.10. That is how we got to the final answer.

Explanation:

Section 402A enforces strict liability for physical harm that is caused a by the product sold to a buyer by a seller.

It states that if a seller sells a defective product that is unreasonably dangerous to an end user, the seller will be liable for any physical harm that results from its use.

Privity is when a contractual relationship exists between different parties in a transaction.

In the given scenario even without a privity the parents of the children and the dogs can bring suit against Pestro under Section 402A even though there is no privity.

They don't have to have a direct contractual relationship with Pestro.

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

It is 0.98

Explanation:

Total Assets Turnover Ratio(TATR) =   <u>   Net Sales                </u>      

                                                            Average Total Assets

Net Assets =Gross Sales-Trade discounts-Sales tax-Sales return

TATR = 940,000/955,000 = 0.98 times

It is the ratio of a company's net sales to its average assets employed.

It is a ratio that tells how efficient the company is using its assets to generate its revenue.

The drawback of this ratio is that, if the divisional manager performance is based on this, it may sometimes leads to short-term view of performance. This  may then encourage dysfunctional behaviour which may include refusal to replace an old assets with lower based value which when replace may reduce this ratio because of the higher based value of the new assets while sales still remain the same
