Answer:
The amount of the equal, annual deposits made on birthdays 5 through 15 is $3,970.58
Explanation:
First, let's calculate the present value of the college expenses on her 17th birthday (a year before college) using NPV formula
NPV(9%, 20000...32000) = $82,839.69
Now, its value on 15th birthday should be equal to 82,839.69 / (1 + 9%)² = $69,724.51
Using the PMT formula, we can calculate the annual amount they have to invest for 11 years to get to this sum at 9% annual rate
PMT(rate = 9%, nper = 11, pv = 0, fv = 69,724.51, 0) = $3,970.58
COMPLETE PROBLEM
Lana, a ten-year-old child, is run over by a car negligently driven by Mitchell. Lana, at the time of the accident, was acting reasonably and without negligence. Clark, a newspaper reporter, photographs Lana while she is lying in the street in great pain. Two years later, Perry, the publisher of a newspaper, prints Clark's picture of Lana in his newspaper as a lead to an article concerning the negligence of children. The caption under the picture reads: "They ask to be killed." Lana, who has recovered from the accident, brings suit against Clark and Perry. What result? Explain.
Explanation:
Judgement for Lana against Perry but not against Clark. The facts make out a case against Perry for the tort of invasion of privacy in particular placing another in a false light (INVASION OF PRIVACY:FALSE LIGHT). Section 652E of the restatement imposes liability for publicity which places another in a false light. It is unlikely that Perry could utilize the first amendment as a defense because Lana was neither a public official nor a public figure. Even if that defense were available, it is forfeited if Perry acted with "malice", which appears to be the case here because Perry acted in reckless disregard of the truth. Clark did not commit the tort of intrusion because he photographed an event that occurred in public.
Answer:
PLAN A:
(120 * 0.39) + (40 * 0.19) + 20 = $74.40
PLAN B:
(120 * 0.49) + (40 * 0.14) + 20 = $84.40
PLAN C:
$20 + $75 = $95 ;
PLAN A is optimal from 0 to 192 minutes
PLAN C is optimal from 192 minutes onward ;
Explanation:
PLAN A :
Service charge = $20
Daytime = $0.39 per minute
Evening = $0.19 per minute
PLAN B :
Service charge = $20
Daytime = $0.49 per minute
Evening = $0.14 per minute
PLAN C :
Service charge = $20
225 minutes = $75
Minutes beyond 225 = $0.36 per minute
A.)
Determine the total charge under each plan for this case: 120 minutes of day calls and 40 minutes of evening calls in a month.
PLAN A:
(120 * 0.39) + (40 * 0.19) + 20 = $74.40
PLAN B:
(120 * 0.49) + (40 * 0.14) + 20 = $84.40
PLAN C:
$20 + $75 = $95
b. If the agent will use the service for daytime calls, over what range of call minutes will each plan be optimal?
PLAN A:
20 + 0.39D = 95
0.39D = 95 - 20
D = 75 / 0.39
D = 192.31
