Answer:

The student should have in his account now the sum of $ 54,365  

Explanation:

In arriving at the amount above,I used the present value formula,which is:

PV=FV/(1+r)^n

FV=future value=$15000 at the beginning of each of the four years

r[=rate=7%

n=number for each payment

The table below showed the detailed calculation

Year Cash flows FV/(1+r)^n

0         15000        15000

1          15000        14,019  

2         15000        13,102  

3         15000        12,244  

       Total                      54,365  

Please note that the beginning of year of year 1 is the same as year 0 and so on.

Which of these situations would give rise to the free-rider problem? Items (6 items)
sveta [45]

Answer:

The answer is: letter c, a recycling program

Explanation:

A "free-rider" problem happens when <em>some members in the society don't contribute an equal share in the cost of a shared resource. </em>

Among the choices above, the recycling program will give rise to such situation. For example, when it comes to a recycling program of making a school's wall out of recycled bottles (in order to protect it from outsiders), not everyone will join the program yet, most of the time, the program is done for the good of the society. In this case, for the good of the school and the people visiting it.

This results to many free riders taking advantage of the school's wall, including the people who visits the school (parents, babysitters, friends, guardians etc.) and loiters in the area to pass time while waiting for their kids or friends
