Answer:

Person B

Explanation:

If Person A begins investing $3,000 a year from age 20 to 29 he would have invested a total of $30,000. Each year he earns 8% of the amount in his account, so the first year he earns $3,000 x 8% = $240, the second year $6,000 x 8 = $ 480...and so on. Total interest earned are $99,600 from the age of 20 thru 65, because at age 30 no more money in invested but the $30,000 continues to earn 8% interest until the age of 65.

Person A earns a total of $30,000 + $99,600 =  $129,600

Person B begins investing $3,000 a year at age 30 and invests a total of $108,00 from age 30 thru 65. Interest of 8% also needs to be considered from age 30 thru age 65. Total interest earned is $159,840.

Person B earns a total of $108,000 + $159,840 = $267,840

So Person B would earn more money at the age of 65.

When the economy slips into a recession, normally the demand for bonds ________, the supply of bonds ________, and the interest
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

b. decreases; decreases; falls.

Explanation:

A bond can be defined as a debt or fixed investment security, in which a bondholder (investor or creditor) loans an amount of money to the bond issuer (government or corporations) for a specific period of time. The bond issuer are expected to return the principal (face value) at maturity with an agreed upon interest (coupon), which are paid at fixed intervals.

In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply.

The law of demand states that, the higher the demand for goods and services, the higher the price it would be sold all things being equal. On the other hand, law of supply states that the higher the price of goods and services, the lower the supply.

Recession can be defined as a period of economic meltdown, in which there's a general decline in all economic activities such as trade.

Hence, when the economy slips into a recession, normally the demand for bonds decreases, the supply of bonds decreases, and the interest rate falls, ceteris paribus (everything else held constant).
