Answer:

$ 10,737,418.23

Explanation:

Given:

Amount paid on the first day = $ 0.02

Amount paid on the Second day = $ 0.04

Amount paid on the third day = $ 0.08

number of days, n = 29

also,

the wages is doubling daily

therefore,

The total of the wages for 29 days will be = $ 0.02 + $ 0.04 + $ 0.08 + ....

or we can form the relation as

= $ 0.02 × ( 2⁰ + 2¹ + 2² + 2³ + ........ )

or

= \sum_{k=0}^{29}2^n

or

= 0.01\times(2^{n+1}-1)

or

= 0.01\times(2^{29+1}-1)

or

= $ 10,737,418.23

Answer:

The chosen option (considering enrollment costs and opportunity cost) is:

b) College course.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Costs/Benefits

                           College Course          Community Course

Cost                              $2,600                         $1,390

Opportunity costs         -2,080                          2,080

Net costs                         $520                        $3,470

Distance to course      0.40 miles                    16 miles

                                  (walking distance)      (driving distance)

Timing of course          Weekday                     Weekend

Number of meetings    16                                 8

b) With the College course option, you will earn $2,080 ($260 * 8) weekdays to offset part of the enrollment cost.  With the Community course option, $2,080 will be lost in opportunity cost, thereby increasing the total costs incurred.  These costs are apart from the driving costs associated with traveling 16 miles to the Community Course at the local library.

The table below contains data for the country of batterland, which produces only waffles and pancakes. the base year is 2013 . p
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Firstly, you should calculate the prices of your market basket, which basically means multiply all the goods with their prices and then add them together in their respective years. This would give you $260, $440, $690 and $1200 in the years 2010 to 2013 respectively. (follow along by noting everything down)

We see that the base year is 2013, therefore if we want to calculate the inflation rate from 2010 to 2011, we have to calculate their price indices. We do this by dividing the maket basket of our chosen years by the market basket of the base year, therefore the price index of 2010 is $260/$1200, giving us 21.6. The price index of 2011 would be $440/$1200, giving us 36.6. To calculate the inflation rate, you find the difference between your two price indices and divide it by the former year, which would be 36.6 - 21.6 / 21.6 x 100, giving us the inflation rate of 69.2%.

She negotiated a price of $21,900 and will trade in her old car for $2,350. She will put another $850 with it and borrow the rem
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

The monthly payment will be $434

Explanation:

Price of New car = $21,900

Price of old car exchanged = $2,350

Cash Payment = $850

Amount of Loan = $21,900 - $2,350 - $850

Amount of Loan = A = $18,700

Rate of interest = r = 6% = 0.06 = 0.005 per month

Number of total periods = 12 x 4 = 48

P = $18500 / { [ ( 1 + 0.005 )^48 ] - 1 } / [ 0.005 ( 1 + 0.005)^48 ]

P = $18500 / [ 0.2704891611 / 0.006352446 ]

P = $18500 / 42.58

P = $434.47
