Answer:

The Annual investment that you will to make will be $1,069.01

Explanation:

In order to calculate the uniform annual investment that will you have to make on the child's 8th through 17th birthdays to meet this goal, we have to make the following calculations:

First we need to calculate the Amount you have at the end of child's 8th year = 600*(1+0.05)^4 + 600*(1+0.05)^3 + 600*(1+0.05)^2 + 600*(1+0.05)^1 = $2,715.38

Therefore, Value of this amount at the end of 17th year = $2715.38 * (1+0.05)^9 = $4,212.45

So, Amount required to be saved = $16,000 - $4,212.45 = $11,787.55

Therefore, to calculate the annual investment we would have to use the following formula:

FV of annuity = P*[((1+r)^n - 1)/r]

P - Periodic payment =?

r - rate per period = 0.05

n - number of periods = 17-8 = 9

$11787.55 = P*(((1+0.05)^9 - 1)/0.05)

P = $11,787.55/11.03 = $1,069.01

The Annual investment that you will to make will be $1,069.01

Bob Shockey borrowed $25,000 from his $250,000 cash value life insurance policy to send his daughter to private college. Assumin

MissTica

Answer:

e. $225,000.

Explanation:

Since Bob Shockey pays interest as in accrues, the amount the beneﬁciary will receive if he dies before the debt is repaid will be the cash value of his life insurance policy minus amount borrowed to send his daughter to private college. This can be calculated as follows:

Amount to receive by beneficiary = $250,000 - $25,000 = $225,000

Therefore, his beneﬁciary will receive $225,000.

Ken consumes two goods, Sprite and potato chips. Sprite costs $1 per can, and he consumes it to the point where the marginal uti

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

The correct option is c. $8.

Explanation:

Ken will maximize utility where the following equation holds:

MU of Sprite / Price of Sprite = MU of potato chips / Price of potato chips ................. (1)

Where;

MU of Sprite = Marginal utility of Sprite = 3

Price of Sprite = $1 per can

From the table in the question, equation (1) holds at the point where Marginal utility of potato chips is 6 since the Potato chips cost $2 per bag.

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

MU of Sprite / Price of Sprite = MU of potato chips / Price of potato chips => 3 / 1 = 6 / 2 = 3

Since when the marginal utility of potato chips that maximizes utility is 6, Ken consumes 4 Bags of Potato chips monthly and pays $2 per bag at this point, the amount he spends on potato chips each month can be calculated as follows:

Amount spent on potato monthly = Number of bags of Potato chips consumed monthly * Cost of potato chips per bag = 4 * $2 = $8

Therefore, the correct option is c. $8.
