New Savings Bank pays 4% interest on its deposits. If you deposit $1,000 in the bank and leave it there, will it take more or le
attashe74 [19]

Explanation:

The cumulative increase in your portfolio for a 25 years is

4% annually * 25 years = 100% — if you received a basic profit (without composition).

The cash would then double.

Your capital would multiply more rapidly than it does with simple interest with compounding interest and would thus take less than 25 years to double.

If the market maker is willing to purchase the entire block of 1,500 shares from Amara and, from that block, resell 1,000 shares
NeTakaya

Answer:

$1,300

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the market maker’s net profit from Brent’s transaction

First step is to calculate the bid-ask spread using this formula

Bid-ask spread=Ask price-Bid price

Let plug in the formula

Bid-ask spread=$31.80-$30.50

Bid-ask spread=$1.30

Now let calculate the Net profit

Using this formula

Net profit=Bid-ask spread*Shares resell

Net profit=$1.3 x 1000 shares

Net profit=$1,300

Therefore the market maker’s net profit from Brent’s transaction will be $1,300

Which of the following is not a goal of federal economic policy? full employment growth a high savings rate Keynesian economics
Ivan

Answer:

high savings rate

Explanation:

High savings rate is not a goal of federal economic policy. The goal of federal economic policy is to achieve full employment, economic growth and stable prices.

However 'high savings rate' is achieved when interest rates are increased in order to fight inflation and achieve 'stable prices' because people keep their money in the banks to take advantage of the benefit of earning interest BUT this is not always the case because 'higher interest rates' works against full employment by making it too costly for firms to borrow for investments which will definitely create jobs.

Dmitri is training for a triathlon, a timed race that combines swimming, biking, and running. Consider the following sentence: B
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Decision on the margins

Explanation:

Pool time seems to be having a greater effect at the moment, it makes sense for his to spend a bit more time in the pool and a bit less time on the bike.

However, this does not mean that it makes sense for her to spend all his time in the pool and no time on the bike. If he cut out all training on the bike, the value of a little bit of bike training might be higher than the value of the last hour of pool training. Dimitri does not treat biking versus swimming as an all-or-nothing decision. He makes small changes at the margin in the number of hours spent training for each activity.

Also they both realise that his time is fixed (20hrs) and anytime he wants to spend extra on one activit, is time he cannot spend on another (opportunity cost).

They are both trying to improve Dimitri's total time (exploiting opportunities to makes themselves better off).

An assumption that Dimitri realises that as he spends more time in the pool improving his swim time, his run and cycle times will suffer. As he swims more, his improvement is likely to slow down, while spending less time on cycling and running will cost him progressively more in terms of time.

Conclusion Dimitri is looking at the margins. His wife on the other hand, is not, she is ignoring the interaction, may be forgetting the decreasing improvements in swim and increasing deterioration in the other 2 legs.

A total of 1000 units of a certain product must be completed by the end of the current week. It is now late Monday afternoon, so
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

7 workers will be required

Explanation:

We will define actual time required to do a job

= Standard time required for producing each unit x Worker efficiency (%)/100

= 11.65 x 115/100

= 13.3975 minutes

Total available minutes in 4 days = 4 days x 8 hours/ day x 60 minutes / day = 1920 minutes

Therefore ,

Number of units which can be produced by 1 worker in 4 days = 1920 /13.3975

Number of units to be produced = 1000 units

Therefore,

Number of workers required

= Number of units to be produced / Number of units which can be produced by 1 worker in 4 days

= 1000 x ( 13.3975 /1920)

= 6.977 ( 7 rounded to nearest whole number )
