Answer:A
Explanation:
A regressive tax is a tax impose in such a manner that the tax rate decreases as the amount subject to taxation increases.
Annual Compound Formula is:
A = P( 1 + r/n) ^nt
Where:
A is the future value of the investment
P is the principal investment
r is the annual interest rate
<span>n is the number of
interest compounded per year</span>
t is the number of years the money is invested
So for the given problem:
P = $10,000
r = 0.0396
n = 2 since it is semi-annual
t = 2 years
Solution:
A = P( 1 + r/n) ^nt
A = $10,000 ( 1 + 0.0396/2) ^ (2)(2)
A = $10000 (1.00815834432633616)
A = $10,815.83 is the amount after two years
Answer 1: The Correct answer is C) the average prices of goods and services decreased between last year and this year.
CPI stands for consumer Price Index. Also known as the 'basket' the index is developed by national governments to monitor the prices of basic goods and services used by the population.
This has to include basic items that the majority of population uses every day e.g. milk, chicken, electricity etc.
In this case, the CPI had decreased from 91.0 to 90.0 which means the prices fell.
Answer 2: The correct answer is A) 3.6%
The formula to calculate unemployment rate is:
No. of unemployed ÷ No. of Working People x 100
In this case, it was 9 million divided by 250 million x 100
3.6% unemployment rate is actually very less for an economy and is an indicator that the economy is doing well and creating enough jobs for most people. A high unemployment rate signals a worsening economy.
