Answer:

CPI (n) = 234.1 x 1.023ⁿ

Explanation:

Let P be an exponential function of n (time) with a base a:

Consumer price index = P₀ x aⁿ

where

P₀ is the CPI when n = 0, P₀ = 234.1

a = 1 + r (rate of increase) = 1 + 2.3% = 1 + 0.023 = 1.023

the CPI will increase as n increases

CPI (n) = P₀ x aⁿ = 234.1 x 1.023ⁿ

Thinking of yourself as an accountant rather than as a person who helps people gain insight into their financial commitments and
beks73 [17]

The financial commitments and performance could be limiting in the long run because skills become obsolete, but problems are rarely solved.

Financial Commitments refers to all borrowing or raising commitments made to the Group at any time, including those for bonds (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any bonding guarantees made in the normal course of business) and other debt, whether or not they are for cash.

A worker's skills become obsolete over time as a result of industrial restructuring or changing skill requirements in occupations and industries that rely heavily on technology (such as ICT, finance, and professional and scientific activities).

To pay for your​ education, you've taken out ​$29,000 in student loans. If you make monthly payments over 10 years at 7 percent
Scrat [10]

Answer:

$169.07

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Loan amount = $29,000

Time  = 10 years

Interest rate = 7% compounded monthly

Therefore,

Interest rate per period, r = 7% ÷ 12 = 0.583% = 0.00583

number of periods, n = 10 × 12 = 120 months

Now,

Loan amount = Monthly payments × [ { 1 - (1 + r )⁻ⁿ } ÷ r]

on substituting the respective values, we get

$29,000 = Monthly payments × [ { 1 - (1 + 0.00583 )⁻¹²⁰ } ÷ 0.00583]

or

$29,000 = Monthly payments × 171.53

or

Monthly payments = $169.07

hichkok12 [17]

Answer: Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Net sales = Gross sales - Sale return

                = $3,600,000 - 34,000

                = $3,566,000

Gross profit = Net sales - COGS

                    = $3,566,000 - $1,200,000

                    = $2,366,000

Total Income = Gross profit  - S& A expense - Prior period expense + Gain on sale of securities + Gain on disposal of business segment

                      = $2,366,000  - $500,000 - $59,000 + $8,000 + $4,000

                      = $1,819,000

Net Income for Year 2 = Total Income - [email protected]%

                                      = $1,819,000 - $545,700

                                      = $1,273,300
