Answer:

 $900

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin with let us estimate the total cash value of the prices

$1000 x 1= 1000

$500 x 1=  500

$50 x 2= 100

Total = $1600

Now let us calculate the total cost of tickets sold at $2.50 per tickets for 1000 tickets

2.5*1000= $2,500

Assuming worse case that the lottery had winners in all three categories and i.e the total prices given out is $1600

Then the expected profit is = $2,500-$1600= $900

Calculate the future value (in dollars) of $1,550 deposited into an account earning an annual simple interest rate of 4% compoun
RUDIKE [14]

Answer: the future value is $1748.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = 1550

r = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

n = 365 because it was compounded 365 times in a year.

t = 3 years

Therefore,.

A = 1550(1 + 0.04/365)^365 × 3

A = 1550(1+0.00011)^1095

A = 1550(1.00011)^1095

A = 1550 × 1.128

A = 1748.4
