$127.27
Price index is (new year/old year)*100
If 2005 is the base/old year, then:
$700/550 = 1.27273 * 100 = $127.27
Price index is used to show inflation from year to year by the change in price for the same goods in a base year to current year. Price index for the base year compared to the base year will always be 100, so anything above that shows inflation.

Answer:
1. The largest and smallest divisions by net sales in 2017:
Largest divisions:
Fabric & Home care with 32%
Baby, Feminine & Family Care, 28%
Smallest divisions:
Beauty with 18%
Grooming, 11%
Healthcare, 11%
2. The one most important division in terms of the proportionate net earnings for the company is:
Fabric & Home Care
Explanation:
The two largest divisions generate 60% of the net sales of the company while the three smallest divisions generate only 40%. In terms of the proportionate net earnings for the company, the two largest divisions also generate 53% of the net earnings of the company, while the three smallest divisions generate 47%. The analysis shows that the company's financial sustenance is largely driven by the Fabric & Home Care division and the Baby, Feminine & Family Care division. Another up-and-coming division is the Beauty division, which generates 18% of the net sales and 20% of the net earnings.
Amount of money deposited in the two accounts is 80% of 7500$.
Amount of money in the two accounts = 0.8 * 7500 = 6000$
Now assume that the amount deposited in CD account is m and the amount deposited in the saving bond is n.
m + n = 6000
Therefore: m = 6000 - n ................> equation I
Now we write another equation expressing the savings:
0.04m + 0.07n = 360 ............> equation II
Substitute with equation I in equation II:
0.04 (6000-n) + 0.07n = 360
240 - 0.04n + 0.07n = 360
0.03n = 120
n = 4000 $
Substitute with n in equation I to get the value of m as follows:
m = 6000 - n = 6000 - 4000 = 2000
Based on these calculations:
The amount of money deposited in the CD = 2000$
The amount of money deposited in the saving account = 4000$
Answer:
a) Qs = 50 + 20p - 7ps
= 50 + 20p - 7×(2)
= 50 + 20p - 14
= 36 + 20p
At equilibrium, 
= 
So, 150 - 10p + 5
= 36 + 20p
So, 20p + 10p = 30p
= 150 - 36 + 5
= 114 + 5
So, p = (114/30) + (5/30)
= 3.8 + 0.17
Thus, 
= 3.8 + 0.17
Q = 36 + 20p
= 36 + 20(3.8 + 0.17)
= 36 + 76 + 3.4
= 112 + 3.4
Thus, 
= 112 + 3.4
b) = 3.8 + 0.17
= 3.8 + 0.17×(5)
= 3.8 + .85
= 4.65
= 112 + 3.4
= 112 + 3.4(5)
= 112 + 17
= 129
c) Qd = 150 - 10p + 5pb = 150 - 10(2.5) + 5(5) = 150 - 25 + 25 = 150
Qs = 36 + 20p = 36 + 20(2.5) = 36 + 50 = 86
Thus, there is excess demand as >
d) New = 180 - 10p + 5
= 180 - 10p + 5×(5)
= 180 - 10p + 25
= 205 - 10p
Now, new = gives,
205 - 10p = 36 + 20p
So, 20p + 10p = 205 - 36
So, 30p = 169
So, p = 169÷30
So, = 5.63
Q = 205 - 10p = 205 - 10×(5.63) = 205 - 56.3 = 148.7
So, = 148.7
Answer:
i'm assuming recurring expenses are necessities so those would always come first, things you need on top of your regular expenses would come next and any wants you have would come last. "entertainment expenses" would be lumped in with your "wants"
