Answer:

Percentage of finance charge as service charge= 15.6%

Explanation:

Monthly installment = Loan amount /annuity factor

Annuity factor =  (1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

r - semi-annul interest rate = 9.58%/2

n= number of period : 2×8 = 16

Annuity factor =( 1- (1.0479))^(-16)/0.0479

                      =11.0016

Monthly installment = 15,360 /11.00

=$1396.160

TotaL amount paid = 1396.160459× 16 =22,338.56

Interest charges = 22,338.56 -  15,360

                           = $6978.56

Percentage of total  finance charge as service charge=

=1294.64/(1294.64+6978.567348)× 100

= 15.6%

Answer:

15.65%

Explanation:

we must determine the payment using the annuity formula:

present value = payment x {1 - (1 + r)⁻ⁿ / r]

  • present value = 15,360
  • r = 9.58% / 2 = 4.79%
  • n = 8 x 2 = 16

15,360 = payment x {1 - (1 + 0.0479)⁻¹⁶ / 0.0479]

payment = 15,360 / {1 - 1.0479⁻¹⁶ / 0.0479] = 1,396.16

total payments = 1,396.16 x 16 = $22,338.56

interest charge = $22,338.56 - $15,360 = $6,978.56

total finance charge = $6,978.56 + $1,294.64 = $8,273.20

$1,294.64 / $8,273.20 = 0.1565 or 15.65%

More than 10,000 people waited in line for more than two hours to see a titan arum (a rare flower) at cambridge botanic garden.
weqwewe [10]

An economist would conclude that when goods are not rationed by monetary price or lottery, other rationing mechanisms like waiting arises.

Here, many people were willing to wait for more than two hours to see the rare flower. The visiting was arranged in such a way that first come, first see. The rareness of the flower made no option but to wait in line to see it.

In an economist's perspective, he will compare the flower to the goods. There is rationing for food through monetary and lottery mechanisms. But if  there were no mechanisms like this, then waiting will be the only way to consume goods. Here, because the flower was rare, it cannot be rationed by price. But we are still able to ration goods by price. If someday, there will be lack of goods, then the only rationing mechanism we could opt will be waiting in lines.
