Answer:

Increasing government spending in the form of infrastructure and  welfare

Explanation:

In order to reduce the national debt, the government need to take a conscious measure to use the government budget as little as possible.

Investment in infrastructures (such as military bases,. building new roads or parks) and government programs (such as expensive healthcare or government funded jobs) tend to take a large amount from the government budget. This will most likely resulted in the increase of national debt.

Steve will get $11360 with the process of simple interest.

<h3>what is simple interest?</h3>

Simple interest is calculated based on a loan's principal or the initial deposit into a savings account. Simple interest doesn't compound, therefore a creditor will only charge interest on the principal sum, and a borrower will never be required to pay further interest on the interest that has already accrued.

Rate of interest = 14%

principal + interest = $8000

Time = 3 years

Simple interest

=\frac{8000 \times 3 \times 14}{100}\\=3360

Now principal + interest = 8000+3360 = 11360

Therefore, Steve will get $11360.

The admissions director at big city university proposed using the iq scores of current students as a marketing tool. the univers
Vika [28.1K]

The complete question is as follows:

The admission directory of Big City University has a novel idea. He proposed using the IQ scores of current students as a marketing tool. The university agrees to provide him with enough money to administer IQ tests to 50 students. So the director gives the IQ test to an SRS of 50 of the university’s 5000 freshman. The mean IQ score for the sample is xbar=112. The IQ test he administered is known to have a σ of 15. What is the 95% Confidence Interval about the mean? What can the director say about the mean score of the population of all 5000 freshman?

Answer: The 95% confidence interval about the mean is Confidence interval = 107.84 \leq \mu \leq 116.16.

The director can say that he is 95% confident that the mean IQ score of the 5000 freshmen lies between 107.84 and 116.16.

We follow these steps to arrive at the answer:

Since the population standard deviation of the IQ test is known, we can use the Z scores to find the confidence interval.

The formula for the confidence interval about the mean is:

Confidence interval = \overline{X}\pm Z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In the equation above, X bar is known as the point estimate and the second term is known as Margin of Error.

The Critical Value of Z at the 95% confidence level is 1.96.

Substituting the values in the question in the equation above we have,

Confidence interval = \112\pm 1.96*\frac{15}{\sqrt{50}}

Confidence interval = \112\pm 4.157787873}

Confidence interval = 107.8422121 \leq \mu \leq 116.1577879

Consider a mutual fund with $300 million in assets at the start of the year and 10 million shares outstanding. The fund invests
djyliett [7]

Answer: Start = $300 million

End = $318.59 million

Explanation:

NAV can be calculated by dividing the funds Assets net of Liabilities by the total number of outstanding shares.

At start of the year NAV is $300 million and NAV per share is therefore,

= 300 million/ 10 million

= $30 per share.

Ending NAV

During the year the fund made Investments and increased by a price of 7%

= 300 million (1 + 0.07)

= $321 million

We still have to subtract the 12b-1 fees that the fund charges though and that would result in,

= 321 million * (1 - 0.0075)

= 318.5925

= $318.59 million.

Dividing this by the total number of outstanding shares we have,

= 318.59 /10

= $31.86

$31.86 is the NAV per share at year end.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

c. $74,450

Explanation:

The computation of the Net present value is shown below  

= Present value of all yearly cash inflows after applying discount factor + salvage value - initial investment  

where,  

The Initial investment is $120,000

All yearly cash flows would be

= Annual net operating cash inflows × PVIFA for 6 years at 14%  

= $50,000 × 3.8887

= $194,435

Refer to the PVIFA table

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $194,435 - $120,000

= $74,435 approx
