Answer:
If a shortage exists in the cantaloupe market, then the current price must be lower than the equilibrium price. For the market to reach equilibrium, you would expect buyers to offer higher prices.
Explanation:
As there is shortage in cantaloupe market ( Supply curve shifts to the left), there are not enough cantaloupe to sell to buyers.
So, buyers will compete for lower supply amount of cantaloupe by willing to pay higher price.
With the existence of supply shortage and buyers is willing to pay higher price, the equilibrium price will goes up, thus it will be higher than the current price.
Answer:
The answer is:D) $226.78
Explanation:
To calculate the amount of money your grandfather deposited every 3 months during 52 years to get $289,209.11 we can use an excel spreadsheet and the payment function =PMT(rate,nper,pv,fv)
where:
- rate = 5.73% / 4 = 1.4325%
- nper = 52 x 4 = 208
- pv = 0
- fv = 289,209.11
PMT = $226.78
The coins were purchased in 1952 for their face value, one dollar per coin. This puts total face value at 59 dollars in 1952. They appreciate at 6.6% per year, so in 101 years, their value can be found through this calculation: 59 x (1.066^101) = $37,525.78.
A. The stock market............
Answer:
(A) 11.3% (B) $430,000
Explanation:
There seems to be an error in the compounding equation written as A(t) = 50,000(1.055)2t.
Compounding the semi annual return, the equation should be
where t is the number of years.
The equation is similar to the first expected that 1.055 is raised to the power of (2t) and not multiplied by it.
(A) Compounding at 5.5% semi-annually, the equivalent annual growth rate is computed as follows.
= 
= 1.113025 - 1
= 0.113025 = 11.3025%
= 11.3% (to the nearest tenth of a percent).
(B) In 20 years, the investment will be worth
(where t=20)
= 
= 
= 50,000 * 8.5133
= $425,665
= $430,000 (to the nearest ten thousand dollars)
