Answer:

Present value = $21,804 (approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Periodic payment = $3,200

Number of period = 12

Interest rate = 10% = 10/100 = 0.1

Present value = ?

Computation of Present value:

Present\ value = PMT[\frac{1-(1+r)^{-n}}{r} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{1-(1+0.1)^{-12}}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{1-(1.1)^{-12}}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{1-0.318630818}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{0.681369182}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 21,803.6188

Present value = $21,804 (approx)

For each scenario, decide whether it creates a producer or a consumer surplus. Then, calculate the ensuing surplus.
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Alice's consumer surplus =  $5

Jeff's consumer surplus = $16

Nicole's producer surplus = $1

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of a good.

Consumer surplus = willingness to pay - price of the good

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the producer is willing to accept

Producer surplus = price of the good - least price the producer is willing to accept

Alice's consumer surplus = $30 - ($35 - $10) = $5

Jeff's consumer surplus = $20 - [$16 - (0.75 x $16)] = $16

Nicole's producer surplus = $501 - $500 = $1

Seventy new jobs are opening up at an automobile manufacturing plant, and 1000 applicants show up for the 70 positions. To selec
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

  • <em>As explained below, given that the score of the person is among the 0.03125 fraction of the best applicants, </em><u><em>he can count on getting one of the jobs.</em></u>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The hint is to use <em>Chebyshev’s Theorem.</em>

Chebyshev’s Theorem applies to any data set, even if it is not bell-shaped.

Chebyshev’s Theorem states that at least 1−1/k² of the data lie within k standard deviations of the mean.

For this sample you have:

  • mean: 60
  • standard deviation: 6
  • score: 84

The number of standard deviations that 84 is from the mean is:

  • k = (score - mean) / standar deviation
  • k = (84 - 60) / 6 = 24 / 6 = 4

Thus, the score of the person is 4 standard deviations above the mean.

How good is that?

Chebyshev’s Theorem states that at least 1−1/k² of the data lie within k standard deviations of the mean. For k = 4, that is:

  • 1 - 1/4² = 1 - 1/16 = 0.9375

  • That means that half of 1 - 0.9375 are above k = 4: 0.03125

  • Then, 1 - 0.03125 are below k = 4: 0.96875

Since there are 70 positions and 1,000 aplicants, 70/1,000 = 0.07. The compnay should select the best 0.07 of the applicants.

Given that the score of the person is among the 0.03125 upper fraction of the applicants, this person can count of geting one of the jobs.
