Using the rule of 70, about how much would $100 be worth after 50 years if the interest rate were 7 percent?
lions [1.4K]

The rule of 70 states that the doubling time or the time required to double an investment is equivalent to 70 divided by the interest rate. So in this case the interest rate is 7%, so the doubling period is:

doubling period = 70 / 7 = 10 years

 

Therefore the investment doubles every 10 years. So:

0 year = $100

10 year = $200

20 year = $400

30 year = $800

40 year = $1600

50 year = $3200

Before the last presidential debates, 50% of registered votes indicated they were planning to vote for the incumbent president.
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

a) H₀ : p = 0.5

H_{a} : p > 0.5

b) z = 2.0785

c) p - value = 0.0188

d) Our conclusion is that there has been a significant increase in the proportion of registered voters who are planning to vote for the incumbent president

Explanation:

Probability of those planning to vote for the incumbent president before the debate, P₀ = 50/100 = 0.5

a) The null and the alternative hypothesis

Let the null hypothesis be represented by H_{0}

and the alternative hypothesis be represented by H_{a}

H₀ : p = 0.5

H_{a} : p > 0.5

b) compute the test statistics

sample size, n = 1200

number of voters planning to vote for the incumbent president, x = 636

Probability of those planning to vote for the incumbent president in the selected sample:

\bar{p} = x/n\\\bar{p} = 636/1200\\\bar{p} = 0.53

Formula for the test statistic:

z = \frac{\bar{p} - p_{0} }{\sqrt{\frac{p_{0}(1-p_{0} ) }{n} } }

z = \frac{0.53 - 0.5 }{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5 ) }{1200} } }

z = 2.0785

c)

For \alpha = 0.05\\, the critical value as checked from the normal table will be:

z_{\alpha} = 1.645

The P value for z > 2.0785

P-value = P(z > 2.0785) \\P - value = \phi (-2.0785)\\P - value = 0.0188

d) What do you conclude?

since ( z = 2.0785) > (z_{\alpha} = 1.645), we will reject the null hypothesis.

Our conclusion is that there has been a significant increase in the proportion of registered voters who are planning to vote for the incumbent president

A) Proposal A= 6875 units

B) Proposal B= 6818 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Two vendors have presented proposals.

Proposal A:

Fixed costs= $55000.

Variable cost= $ 14.00.  

Proposal B:

Fixed cost= $75000.

Variable cost= $11.00

The revenue generated by each unit is $ 22.00

Break-even point= fixed costs/contribution margin

A) Proposal A= 55000/(22-14)= 6875 units

B) Proposal B= 75000/(22-11)= 6818 units

Weekly Company gathered the following information for the year ended December​ 31:Direct labor cost incurred for the year$ 180 c
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

predetermined manufacturing overhead rate  $1.23

Explanation:

\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate

We will distribute the expected overhead cost along a cost driver.

In this case we are asked to use direct labor cost:

estimated overhead 270,300

estimated labor         219,800

overhead rate = 270,300 / 219,800 = 1,229754 = 1.23
