Simple versus compound interest

Business
1 answer:
kherson [118]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The correct answers are a. $1719.00 ; c. 2168.86 ; d. $2218.36.

Explanation:

Zoe deposited $900 in a savings account at her bank.

Her account will earn an annual simple interest rate of 7%.

Time for which the money is deposited for 13 years.

Money Zoe would have in her account in thirteen years  is

Principal + Principal × time × \frac{interest rate}{100} = 900 + 9 × 13 ×7 = 900 + 819 = $1719

Now, assume that Zoe's savings institution modifies the terms of her account and agrees to pay 7% in compound interest on her $900 balance.

Money Zoe would have in her account in thirteen years  is

Principal × (1 + \frac{interest rate}{100}) ^{time} = 900 × ( 1 + \frac{7}{100} )^{13} = $2168.86.

Suppose Zoe had deposited another $900 into a savings account at a second bank at the same time. The second bank also pays a nominal (or stated) interest rate of 7% but with quarterly compounding.

Time has now changed to 4× 13 = 52.

Money Zoe would have in her account in thirteen years  is

Principal × (1 + \frac{interest rate}{100}) ^{time} = 900 × ( 1 + \frac{7}{400} )^{52} = $2218.36.

sdas [7]

Answer:                        

Explanation:

1.                                     Jasper Company

                                      Income Statement

                                                                                         

            Sales (280000 x $12)                                  $3360000

            <u>Less: Cost of goods sold</u>

            Add: Direct Material                   $180000

            Add: Direct Labor                       $505000

            Add: Manufacturing Overhead  <u>$110000</u>

            Cost of goods sold                                      <u>($795000)</u>

            Gross Profit                                                  $ 2565000

           <u>Less: Expenses</u>

           Selling expense                           $437000

           Administrative expense              <u>$854000</u>

          Total expenses                                               <u>($1291000)</u>

          Net income                                                     <u> $1274000</u>

Percentage of sales for each line item

Sales = 100%

Cost of goods sold: \frac{795000}{3360000} x 100= 23.7%

Selling expense : \frac{437000}{3360000} x 100 = 13%

Administrative expense: \frac{854000}{3360000} x 100 = 25.4 %

2. According to the income statement in requirement 1, the manager can control cost by outsourcing the product if it is cheaper to get it from a third party in order to cut/control cost of goods sold.

Manager can also try controlling the administrative expenses as they are taking a bigger proportion than any other cost/ expense.

klemol [59]

Answer:

Total amount= $2,055.38

Explanation:

Simple interest is defined as the amount that a lender charges the borrower for the funds collected. The borrower pays back the principal collected and the interest to the lender.

Simple interest is calculated as principal multiplied by time multiplied by interest rate.

Interest= principal * time * rate

Interest= 1,890* 2.5* 0.035

Interest= $165.375

Therefore total amount of money in the account is

Total amount= principal + Interest

Total amount= 1890+ 165.375

Total amount= $2,055.375~ $2,055.38

Low-interest rates on loans thus credit is cheaper. Additionally, there will be less competition as the money is in the hands of few people during this time. Finally, many people want to save money and thus clients will be on the lookout for more affordable alternatives.
