Answer:

<em>d. regressive tax.</em>

Explanation:

Because as we can see on the given statements that lower income people come to buy grocery than the higher income people, so the 10-cent fee for disposable bags will come under regressive tax, as we know that regressive tax is a tax in which is taken or collected largely from the lower income people than the higher income people.

A small foundry agrees to pay $220,000 two years from now to a supplier for a given amount of coking coal. The foundry plans to
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

A) $24,602

Explanation:

We can solve this question by finding the periodic deposits needed by using the formula:

FV=PMT*\frac{(1+i)^n-1}{i}

where:

FV= future value   = $220,000

PMT = periodic deposits required = ???

i = effective  interest rate per period = 0.0331

n= number of deposits = 8

However, since the interest is compounded monthly, let's also  calculate the effective interest rate

Effective interest rate = (1+\frac{r}{m}) ^m-1

where; r = 12.5% = 0.125

(1+\frac{0.125}{12})^{12} -1

= 0.1324

Interest rate per period = \frac{0.1324}{4}

= 0.0331

Then;

220,000=PMT*\frac{(1+0.033)^8-1}{0.033}

220,000 = PMT × 8.986

PMT = \frac{220,000}{8.986}

PMT = $ 24,482.5

Since A) $24,602 is closer to $ 24,482.5

Therefore,  $ $24,602  must be deposited every three months
