Answer:

a. 65 in 1972 and 156 today

Explanation:

The relationship between CPI should be the same as the prices:

price today / price 1972 = CPI today / CPI 1972

          6      /       2.50      = 2.4

Now we divide the given CPI and look for the correct answer:

<em>a) 156/65 = 2.4</em>

b) 145.8 / 90 = 1.62

c) 160/75 = 2.1333333

d) 150/60 = 2.5

the first option matches the relationship between prices thus, is the correct one.

Match each hypothetical country’s aging structure to its most likely economic situation.
worty [1.4K]

It should be noted that the aging structure data is important as it allows the rate of growth to be associated with the population in a country.

Your information is incomplete. Therefore, an overview of the topic will be given. There are typically three age structures which are:

  • The children who are under 15 years old.
  • The working-age who are between 15 - 64 years.
  • The elderly ones who are 65 years and older.

It should be noted that an aging population lower the labor-force participation and slows down economic development in the country.

On January 1, 2018, Race Corp. acquired 80% of the voting common stock of Gallow Inc. During the year, Race sold to Gallow for $
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Consolidated income: 954,800 dollars

Explanation:

Gallow income x race participation:

    $   204,000    x   80%   = $ 163,200

The gross profit in the infra-entity transaction will be eliminated

$ 450,000 - $ 330,000 = $ 120,000 gross profit

15% remains at Gallow so: $ 120,000 x 15% = $ 18,000 gross profit for the unsold inventory.

We now multiply by Race participation: $ 18,000 x 80% = $ 14,400 unrealized gain.

Consolidated income:

Race income:   806,000

Gallo income    163, 200

unrealized gain (14, 400)

Total:                954,800

You have arranged for a loan on your new car that will require the first payment today. The loan is for $24,500, and the monthly
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

84%

Explanation:

APR is the annual rate of interest that is paid on an investment, without taking into account the compounding of interest within that year. APR is calculated by multiplying the periodic interest rate by the number of periods in a year in which the periodic rate is applied.

Divide the finance charge by the loan amount. In this case, $3,400 divided by $24,500 equals 0.138

Multiply the result by 365 to get 50.4

Divide the result by the term of the loan. In this case, 50.4 divided by 60 is 0.84

Multiply the result by 100 to turn the answer into a percentage 84%

Temka [501]

Answer:

D) Broker

Explanation:

A broker is a person who coordinates buyer and seller. A broker tries to improve communication between those two parties so that the transaction is successful, but he does not take part in the transaction and only charges a small comission fee.

In the question, Tony is a classical example of a broker because he does not take any equipment for himself, does not incurr any debt, and only coordinates the parties, and likely charges a small fee after the transaction is finished.
