Answer:

a) X = 14.7%

b) X = 140%

c) X = 10.76%

d) X = 5.83%

e) X = 40%

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

a) Let the tax rate be = X%

then 0+(X × 10,000)÷100+(X × 130,000)÷100+(X × 240,000)÷100 = $56,000

100X+1,300X+2,400X = $56,000

X = $56,000÷3,800

= 14.7%

b) ((X × 10,000)÷100)× 4 = $56,000

400X = $56,000

X = 140%

c) ((X × 130,000)÷100)×4 = $56,000

5,200 X = $56,000

X = 10.76%

d) ((X × 240,000)÷100 )×4 = $56,000

9,600 X = $56,000

X = 5.83%

e) X× 0+(X × 10,000)÷100+(X × 130,000)÷100 = $56,000

1,400 X = $56,000

X = 40%

What is​ positioning? A. A part of a​ company-driven marketing strategy B. Dividing a market into smaller groups of buyers C. De
sergey [27]

Answer:

D. Arranging for a market offering to occupy a​ clear, distinctive, and desirable place relative to competing products in the minds of target consumers

Explanation:

Positioning simply consists in establishing a specific market position for the product or service relative to the products or services that the competition offers.

For example, Wal-Mart has found that its most effective positioning strategy is to occupy the market place of the cheapest retail store. Wal-Mart does not try to appeal to everyone, it tries to offer the cheapest products in the market (which in itself has a very wide appeal, but the appeal is not universal anyway).

You put aside $300 a month in an account that returns 9% a year, compounded monthly. How long do you need to contribute to save
Anettt [7]

Answer:

36 years 4 months and 2 days

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Monthly payment = $300

Rate of return, i = 9% = 0.09

Future value = $1,000,000

Now,

we know

Future value = Monthly payments × \left[ \frac{(1+i)^{n}-1}{i} \right]

or

1000000  = $300 × \left[ \frac{(1+0.0075)^{ }-1}{ 0.0075 }

or

\frac{ 1000000}{ 300} &= \frac{ 1.0075^{n} - 1}{ 0.0075}

3333.33333 &= \frac{ 1.0075^{n} - 1}{ 0.0075}

1.0075^{n} - 1 &= 3333.33333 \times0.0075

or

1.0075ⁿ - 1 = 25

or

1.0075ⁿ = 26

ln( 1.0075ⁿ) = ln(26)

or

n × ln( 1.0075 ) = ln(26)

or

n = [tex]\frac{ \ln (26) }{ \ln( 1.0075 ) }[tex]

or

n = 436.04  months

or

n = 36 years 4 months and 2 days
