Answer:

There were 9 cats at the shelter on Wednesday.

Explanation:

Per day cost to care for each cat = $2.00

Per day cost to care for each dog = $6.50

Total Cost on Wednesday = $44.00

Suppose

Number of cats = C

Number of dogs = D

According to given condition

C + D = 13 (Equation 1)

( each cat's per day cost x Number of cats ) + ( each dog's per day cost x Number of dogs ) = Total coat

2C + 6.5D = 44 (Equation 2)

Multiply (Equation 1) by 2 and we get

2C + 2D = 26 (Equation 3)

Subtract (Equation 3) from (Equation 2)

2C + 6.5D - 2C - 2D  = 44 -26

4.5D = 18

D = 18/4.5

D = 4

by placing value of D in (Equation 1)

C + 4 = 13

C = 13-4

C = 9

Incremental rate of borrowing = 11%

Lease Period = 5 yrs.

2. Value of lease equipment as on 1st October 2017 i.e., date of lease.

= $ 36,959

Factors are used according to the table of PVAF

3.Lease liability as on 31-12-2017

 = 10,000 * 3.44371

= $ 34,437.10

Lease liability as on 31st Dec 2018

= 10,000 * PVAD (11% 3 years) (still 3 yrs left as on 31-12 -2018)

Answer:

Find attached statement and the question which question number 10.

The correct option is C,$90

Explanation:

In the statement you would notice that the balance transfer from another credit card was $785,upon which balance transfer levy of  $23.55 was  charged(Section 7)

Intuitively, the percentage of balance transfer charge is $23.55 divided by the amount of balance transfer i.e $785

balance transfer charge(%)=$23.55/$785=3%

However, if the balance transfer were $3000,the charge is 3% of $3000 i.e $90 ($3000*3%).

The correct option then is C,$90
