Answer:

C) i and ii

Explanation:

Price elastic of demand (PED) of kerosene = 2.2% / 10% = 0.22 price inelastic demand

When two products are substitutes, an increase in the price of one of the products will not only reduce the quantity demanded of that product, but it will also increase the quantity demanded of its substitute products. In this case, an increase in the price of electricity, increases the quantity demanded for kerosene, which means that they are both substitute products.

Answer:

Missing word <em>"You are now 18 years old and are allowed to withdraw the money for the first time. The account currently has $3996 in it and pays an 8% interest rate."</em>

a.  At 18 years, future value of current amount (compounded for another 7 years at 8%)

= $3,996 * (1.08)^7

= $3,996 * 1.7138

= $6,848.34

b. At age 65, future value of this amount (compounded for another 40 years at 8%)

= $6,848.44 * (1.08)^40

= $6,848.44 * 21.7245

= $148,779.93

c. Future Value = Present Value * (1 + Interest Rate)^n

So, let initial the money deposited be represented by Y

=> $3,996 = Y * (1.08)^18

=> $3,996 = Y * 3.996

Y = $3,996 / 3.996

Y = $1,000
