Answer:

Saving can only be done in person. Investing can be done both in-person and online.

Explanation:

Saving refers to keeping some funds aside for use during emergencies. Individuals and institutions also save as a way of accumulating funds for a specific intention. Banks and other deposit-taking institutions offer saving services to pool funds and lend them for investment and consumption.

Saving will attract lower interest rates, sometimes below the inflation rate. Banks offer lower rates on saving and charges a higher interest rate to borrowers to make profits. Because saving offer lower returns, they are suitable for short-term periods. Savings are relatively safer than investment.

Investments offer higher returns but have a higher risk. Due to their price volatility, investments are suited for the long-term to safeguard against price fluctuations.

Equipment maintenance costs for manufacturing explosion-proof pressure switches are projected to be $125,000 in year 1 and incre

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually is $127,432

Explanation:

In order to calculate the equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually we would have to calculate the following formula:

equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs= P(i(1+i)∧n/(1+i)∧n-1

The rate of interest i would be as follows:

rate of interest i=(1+10%/2)-1

rate of interest i=0.1025*100

rate of interest i=10.25%

The present value P would be calculated as follows:

present value P=$125,000(1-(1+1/100)∧5 (1+10.25/100)∧-5/(10.25/100-1/100)

present value P=$125,000*3.84

present value P=$480,000

Therefore,

equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$480,000*(10.25/100 (1+10.25/100)∧5/(1+10.25/100)∧5-1)

equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$480,000*0.2654

equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$127,432

The equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually is $127,432

Alexxandr [17]

<h2><u>Disclamer:</u></h2>

As it ask to run simulations the values calculates will difer even if you follow the same step as I did.

Answer:

Mean Profit: $ 4,295

Probability of loss: 29.80%

As the product has a mean profit it will on average generate gains

but:

as the standard deviation of the simulation was $ 7,778.40

<u>we should not invest on the product as it is to variable</u>

<u>Explanation</u>:

We are going to use the =RAND() function of excel

which, generates a random number between 0 and 1

This will be done 1,000 times 500 for the variable cost

and 500 for the demand.

Then we copy and paste this numbers to get them fixed.

Then, we convert them into actual cost and demand in units considering their distribution

using excel dist.norm.inv

Now, with this values we solve for profit on each one.

<u></u>

FOr the complexity I attached the excel file as the plataform interface cannot handle large tables.
