Answer:

Mr. Porter's claim was not correct and it will be a 21% increment.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of the house when Mr. Porter bought the house was d.

The present value of the house is given by d + 0.21d = 1.21d.

Hence, the increase in the value of the house is 0.21 d and the final value of the house is 1.21d.

So, if Mr. Porter claims that the value of his house has increased by 121%, then his claim is wrong. The increase in value is only by 0.21d i.e. by 21% and after this increment, the value becomes 1.21d i.e. 121%.

Therefore, his claim is not correct and it will be a 21% increment. (Answer)

P(completing exam before 1 hour)

= P(less than an hour) = P(X<60)

=P(Z<\frac{60-70}{10} =-1)

You own an electronics store with a merchandise book value of $245,000. You conduct a physical inventory and find the value to b
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

0.22% shrinkage as a percent of sales.

To calculate shrinkage you subtract the physical inventory value from the book value.

245,000-237,000 = 800

The shrinkage was $800. To find the shrinkage as a percent of sales take the shrinkage value and divide it by the sales value to get shrinkage as a percentage of sales.

800 / 360,000 = 0.0022....

Multiply Decimal by 100 to get the percentage

100 * 0.0022.... = 0.22%
