I find it easiest to subtract and add the percentages to make a multiplier, then use that.

After the man's discount, he pays (100% - 12%) = 88% of the list price. After tax, he pays (100% + 3%) = 103% of the discounted price.

The amount he actually pays is $255×0.88×1.03 = $231.13.

The best choice is ...
  (B) $231.13

A student desired to invest $1,540 into an investment at 9% compounded semiannually for 6 years. With all else equal, what is th
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The future value of this initial investment after the six year period is $2611.6552

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A student desired to invest $1,540 into an investment at 9% compounded semiannually for 6 years.

Future value of an investment: FV=P(1+r)^n

Where Fv is the future value, p is the present value, r is the rate and n is the number of compounding periods.

9% compounded semiannually for 6 years.

Therefore, the value of r is: r=\frac{0.09}{2}=0.045

Number of periods are: 2 × 6 = 12

Now substitute the respective values in the above formula.

FV=1540(1+0.045)^{12}

FV=1540(1.045)^{12}

FV=1540(1.69588)

FV=2611.6552

Hence, the future value of this initial investment after the six year period is $2611.6552
