svet-max [94.6K]

Answer: 10%

Explanation:

Short sale of 600 shares at $25 will yield:

= 600 * 25

= $15,000

You posted 40% of this:

= 40% * 15,000

= $6,000

The profit in a year seeing as the price fell is:

= (25 - 24) * 600 shares

= $600

Rate of return is:

= Profit / Margin posted

= 600 / 6,000 * 100%

= 10%

Your parents will retire in 27 years. They currently have $280,000 saved, and they think they will need $1,900,000 at retirement
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Annual Rate=7.35%

Explanation:

Calculation for the annual interest rate must they earn to reach their goal

Number of years =27

PV =280,000

FV =1,900,000

Using this formula

Annual Rate=(FV/PV)^(1/n)-1

Let plug in the formula

Annual Rate=(1,900,000/280,000)^(1/27)-1

Annual Rate=6.7857^(1/27)-1

Annual Rate=1.07349-1

Annual Rate=0.0735

Annual Rate=7.35%

Therefore the annual interest rate must they earn to reach their goal will be 7.35%

1. A major controversy that is yet to be resolved about the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 200
qaws [65]

Answer:

C. What the program will ultimately cost the federal government

Explanation:

The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 was an attempt to make improvements or amendments to the Social Security Act.  It radically changed the playing field for private plans participating in the Medicare program by substantially raising monthly payment rates in an effort to stabilize the market and reverse the decline in benefit generosity.  It also provided for voluntary prescription drugs under the medicare program.  However, the utilization and cost of the program skyrocketed as soon as the funding source was established.  It has remained unknown what the program will ultimately cost the federal government, no wonder the current administration under Trump wants to turn it upside down.
