You multiply 3 by 120 to get $360 the answer is b. $360
Answer:
Instructions are listed below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
A) How much would you have to deposit today if you wanted to have $54,000 in five years? The annual interest rate is 8%.
We need to use the following formula:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 54,000/(1.08^5)= $36,751.49
B) Assume that you are saving up for a trip around the world when you graduate in two years. If you can earn 7% on your investments, how much would you have to deposit today to have $14,500 when you graduate?
PV= 14,500/1.07^2= $12,664.86
C) Calculate the future value of an investment of $643 for eleven years earning an interest of 8%.
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 643*1.08^11= $1,499.24
D) Would you rather have $643 now or $1,000 eleven years from now?
It depends on the interest rate. We will assume 8%.
PV= 1000/1.08^11= 428.88
It is better to have $643 today.
Answer:
U.S. Tax Burden on Cola:
The amount of the tax on a case of cola is $4 per case. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $1 per case, and the burden that falls on producers is ___$3______ per case.
The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers.
a. True
b. False
Explanation:
The tax burden on consumers, which is represented by the difference in the price of cola from $5 to $6 per unit is $1 ($6 - $5). However, the cash received by producers reduced by $3 from $5 to $2. This shows that the total tax burden on both consumers and producers is $4 ($1 + $3).
This represents a total tax burden of $4 or about 67% based on the new selling price of cola or 80% based on the old selling price of cola.
"The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers alone. This because the price of cola would have increased to $9 per unit. Since the demand for cola in this instance is elastic, this change in price would have caused a more than 80% change in the quantity demanded.
Answer:
Comedy as a Profession is a great example.
Explanation:
The science of it is related to the psychology of what makes people laugh.
If studied, one would realize that there are certain things that are bound to make people laugh (all things being equal). An example is when a person makes fun of themself to an audience.
To explain this, scientists have stated that it is inherent in humans to laugh at the misfortune of others. However, this is just a theory and does not explain why we laugh at other kinds of comedy.
A plausible explanation (which is more recent in the parlance of psychology) is that people also laugh when certain expectations are defied in a very witty manner.
As a professional stand-up comedian, knowing all the rules and tricks is just one part of the coin. Being able to, either by practice or repeated efforts during practice, internalize these principles, practice them and effectively use them is the artistic part of the picture.
There those who are gifted naturally with a principle thought process that elicits laughter from others, would be termed hilarious. However, to make a living out of comedy, one would need to fully understand the principles and practice to deliver them as naturally as possible.
Another paradigm to the art of comedy is that, it has to be very witty. Wit many times may come with an element of suprise... a new angle that was previously "unthought" of.
Cheers!
Answer:
$26,000 adverse variance
Explanation:
Fixed Overheads Volume Variance = Budgeted Overheads at Actual Output - Budgeted Fixed Overheads
= $1.30 x 60,000 hours - $1.30 x 80,000
= $78,000 - $104,000
= $26,000 adverse variance
The fixed factory overhead volume variance is $26,000 adverse variance
