Answer:

I would choose to invest in C-T bank since it offers $7.3675 more compared to Bank Wan

Explanation:

The two options can be expressed as shown;

Option 1: Bank Wan

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

where;

A=Total amount after a given time

P=Initial deposit

r-Annual interest rate

n=number of times the interest is compounded annually

t=number of years of the investment

In our case;

P=$1,500

r=2.5%=2.5/100=0.025

n=365 days

t=1 year

Replacing;

A=1,500(1+0.025/365)^(365×1)

A=1,500(1.02530

A=1,537.97

Total amount after a year=$1,537.97 for Bank Wan

Option 2: C-T Bank

P=$1,500

r=3%=3/100=0.03

n=2

t=1

Replacing;

A=1,500(1+0.03/2)^(2×1)

A=1,500(1.015)^2

A=1,545.3375

Total amount after a year=$1,545.3375 for C-T Bank

Total amount received to be received from C-T Bank-Total amount to be received from Bank Wan

=(1,545.3375-1,537.97)=$7.3675

I would choose to invest in C-T bank since it offers $7.3675 more compared to Bank Wan

What were the impacts of the fur trade on society in terms of economics, culture, technology, nature, and the government? Did Ro
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

The impacts of the fur trade on society in terms of economics, culture, technology, nature, and the government changed over the time.

Rockefeller never act unethically by the standards of his day or today´s.

There is nocontradiction between his personal and business ethics.

Explanation:

The fur trade was a vast commercial enterprise, which was at its peak for nearly 250 years, from the early 17th to the mid-19th centuries, sustained to satisfy the demand in an intensely competitive trade which opened exploration and settlement, financing missionary work, established social, economic and colonial relationships between Europeans and Indigenous people.

Changing cultural in the fashion industry, has had a drastic evolution over the years, when a woman in the first half of the twentieth century , might be very proud to wear a fox stole with its head and feet intact but today, it would consider  that an ethical faux pas.

Ethics has become a major consideration for young people in their selection of work and career, who demand enshrined values in their business  model, a difference, contributing with their core values, conscience, and personality not just profit.By the standards of his day Rockefeller, a faithful, balanced and devout Christian, was not being unethical as he always followed his-time regulations and laws, although nowadays they are more severe.  He compensated all the things he did, if wrong, with his contributions to help people cope with any damage done. There is no contradiction behe did as he had been taught when he was younger that he should separate business from pleasure.

Oxana [17]

Answer:

 export               import                net export  

1. increases         unchanged         increases

2. unchanged       increases             decreases

3.  unchanged       increases             decreases

4. unchanged       increases             decreases

5. increases         unchanged         increases

Explanation:

export would comprise of goods and services produced in the US that are been sold to foreign countries

Import would comprise of foreign produced goods and services that are been sold in the US

Net export would increase when export occurs and decrease when import occurs

Net export = exports – imports

When the French historian visits the US museum and the European family visits Disney,  they are enjoying US services, thus export increases and net export increases

The purchase of books from Cambridge in UK, Panasonic camera and the visit to Japan constitutes import. These increases import and reduces net export
