Mr. Marcucci received a bonus of $496 from his employer. He has to pay 33% of his bonus to taxes. How much will Mr. Marcucci pay

tiny-mole [99]

Edit: 33% is not $\frac{1}{3}$ , therefore my solution is wrong. The correct answer is 0.33 x 496, which is $163.68

The following is the original solution, which is incorrect.
33% = $\frac{1}{3}$ . Multiply the bonus of $496 by $\frac{1}{3}$ to get the solution of $\frac{496}{3}$ , or 165 and $\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore the solution is $165.33

Determine the effective rate for $1 for 1 year at 5.9% compounded quarterly.

kenny6666 [7]

Keeping in mind that the effective rate, is in effect the APY or Annual Percentage Yield,

$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{Annual Yield Formula}
\\\\
~~~~~~~~~\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{n}-1
\\\\
\begin{cases}
r=rate\to 5.9\%\to \frac{5.9}{100}\to &0.059\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{quarterly, thus four times}
\end{array}\to &4
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\left(1+\frac{0.059}{4}\right)^{4}-1\implies (1.01475)^4-1 \approx 0.0603
\\\\\\
0.0603\cdot 100\implies \stackrel{\%}{6.03}$
