Answer:    arithmetic Average Return =11.33%

                  Geometric Average Return=10.33%

Explanation:

Returns per year

Year 1      16%

year 2       23%

year 3       15

year 4      -11%  

year 5     30 %

year 6      -5%

Total =    68%

Arithmetic Average = Total returns 0f ( year 1 -6) / number of years

= 68%/6 =11.33%

Geometric Average Return  is given as

= ((1 + R1) × (1 + R2) × ... × (1 +Rn))(1/n) - 1

((1 + 16%) × (1 + (23%)) × (1 + 15%) x (1+ -11%) x (1+30%)  x (1+ -5%))^1/6 - 1

((1.16 x 1.23 x 1.15 x 0.89 x 1.30  x (0.95)) ^1/6

((1.16 x 1.23 x 1.15 x 0.89 x 1.30   x 0.95)) ^1/6 -1

(1.8035073 )^1/6  - 1

= 1.10328 -1 = 0.10328 x 100 = 10.328%   =10.33%

The Sugar Sweet Company will choose from two companies to transport its sugar to market. The first company charges
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Both will charge $6,904 when they transport 16 tons of sugar.

Explanation:

The amount of sugar to be transported is S, since we need to calculate at which amount of sugar both truck companies charge the same total price, we need to solve the following:

first company charges $4,500 + $150.25 S

second company charges $3,696 + $200.50 S

since both companies will charge the same total amount, then

$4,500 + $150.25 S = $3,696 + $200.50 S

$4,500 - $3,696 = $200.50 S - $150.25 S

$804 = $50.25 S

$804 / $50.25 = S

S = 16

$4,500 + ($150.25 x 16) = $4,500 + $2,404 = $6,904
