Answer:

<u>Prize is $22,071.39 worth today</u>

Explanation:

Present value of Annuity = A*[(1-(1+r)^-n)/r]

A - Annuity payment = 500

r - rate per period = 6/12 = .5%

n - no. of periods = 50

Present value of Annuity = 500*[(1-(1.005)^-50)/.005]

= 500*[(1-0.77928606825)/.005]

= 500*44.14278635

= $22,071.39

A car rental agency rents 200 cars per day at a rate of 29 dollars per day. For each 1 dollar increase in the daily rate, 5 fewe
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer and Explanation:

Given:

Total car = 200

Rate = $29

Computation:

Total increase in rate = a

So , Total decrees in car = 5a

Total income (y) = [200-5a][29+a]

y = 5,800 + 200a - 145a - 5a²

y = 5,800 + 55a - 5a²

y' = dy / da [5,800 + 55a - 5a²]

y' = -10a + 55

in which , y' = 0

0 = -10a + 55

a = 5.5

So , Maximum rate = $ [29+5.5]

Maximum rate = $34.5

maximum income = 5,800 + 55(5.5)- 5(5.5)²

maximum income = 5,800 + 302.5 - 151.25

maximum income = $5951.25

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

A regressive tax is a tax system where the same tax rate is applied uniformly. As a result, those earning less income are taxed higher than those earning more income.  

Sales tax is an example of a regressive tax.

If sales tax is 5%. Worker A earns $100 and worker B earns $1000. Both buy a good worth $50 before tax.  the sales tax is worth $2.5.

The tax comprises $2,5 / 100 = 2.5% of worker A's income and $2,5 / $1000 = 0.025% of Worker B's income.

It can be seen that worker A who earns less income is taxed higher
