Answer:
Low balance checking account
Explanation:
Since Becca has a small amount of money, only $500, and only uses the ATM around 4 times per month, her best option is a low balance checking account. This type of checking account works very well for people that can only keep a small balance. Many banks don't charge fees for this type of account as long as you write only a limited number of checks, your bank statement is sent to you online, and you use only their ATMs.
The other types of checking accounts usually require much higher balances, and of the minimum balance is not met, then they will charge you a monthly fee.
Contributions shall be paid until contributions for eligible spending are removed.
<u>Explanation:
</u>
A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is a kind of savings account that offers specific tax incentives for the account holder. The employer for a contractor provides the FSA, also known as a flexible spending plan. The account requires workers to pay for eligible charges related to medical care and dentistry for a percentage of their daily earnings.
An FSA is a form of savings account that helps workers to pay for authorized expenses in a part of their regular income.
Funds paid to the company shall, due to payroll deductions, be excluded from the worker’s wages.
The money must be invested by the completion of the scheme year in the FSA, but employers can give up to 2.5 months of time until 15 March next year.

<u>I will assume an interest rate of 8%</u>
The first option and second option are a perpetual annuity. To calculate the present value, we need to use the following formula:
Choice 1:
PV= Cf/i
Cf= 100
i=0.08
PV= 100/0.08= $1,250
Choice 2:
PV= 50 + 50/0.08= $825
Choice 1 is more profitable.
Answer: The correct answer is (A) : Positive upward slope.
Explanation: A demand curve is basically a graph like any other with the variables in potted on both the x-axis (left to right) and the y-axis (top to bottom). Understanding the definition of demand would make it easier to understand why the answer is option A and why the demand curve has a negative downward slope.
Demand can be defined as the quantity of a commodity or service that a consumer is willing and able to buy at a given price and at a particular point in time. And the law of demand states that “other factors being held constant, the higher the price of a commodity, the lower the quantity being demanded by the consumer. And the lower the price of a commodity, the higher the quantity being demanded by a consumer.”
This is simply a rational consumer behavior. So if the price of movie tickets were to go up let’s say from $10 to $15 then a consumer who previously could afford to watch 8 movies in a month (that’s $80) would be having second thoughts and so, rather than spend $120 per month on movie tickets, would be more inclined to watch less movies and stay within his/her $80 budget.
Therefore, on the demand curve, as the price of movie tickets moves positively towards the right side (on the x-axis), the quantity demanded would move negatively downwards (on the y-axis). As one variable increases the other one decreases, and vice versa. That explains why the demand curve has a negative downward slope.
