Answer:

a) = $10,896.71

b) = $11,768.45

Explanation:

The question is divided into 2 parts

Part a) Amount in the account today

The formula to use is as follows:

FV of Annuity= P(1+r)∧n - 1)/r

P= Periodic Payment = $450

r= Rate of each period= 8%

n= the number of periods= 14

The account today is as follows:

FV = 450 x (1+0.08)∧14-1]/0.08

= $10,896.71

Part b) The formula to use is as follows:

FV = Future value = (1+r) * P * [ (1+r)n -1] / r

P= Periodic Payment = $450

r= Rate of each period= 8%

n= the number of periods= 14

= Fv= (1+0.08) * 450 * [ (1+0.08)^14 - 1] / 0.08

= $11,768.45

Explain the difference between the proportional method and the incremental method of allocating the proceeds of lump-sum sales o
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

When a company sells different securities together (this usually happens during mergers and acquisitions):

  1. and the price of all the securities is not certain, the incremental method will first allocate proceeds to the sale of securities whose price is actually certain. The remaining proceeds will be allocated to the securities whose price is uncertain. E.g. total sales $10 million, stocks worth $5 million were sold and bonds worth ? million were sold. The company will allocate $5 million to stocks and $5 million to bonds.
  2. and the price of all the securities is certain, the proportional method allocates the sales proceeds proportionally among the different securities sold. E.g. total sales $10 million, stocks worth $5 million were sold and bonds worth $3 million were sold. The company will allocate ($5/$8) x $10 million = $6.25 million to stocks and $3.75 to bonds.

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

Dan is the "supplier" of the funds

Explanation:

Given their willingness to lend their money, savers in this marketplace are on the supply side of the economy.

What is the loanable fund market?

The market that connects savers and borrowers is the loanable funds market.

Model of the market for loanable money

To make what occurs in the economy when borrowers and savers interact more understandable, the loanable funds market model is utilized. A modification to the market model for commodities and services is the market model for loanable funds. In this hypothetical scenario, the exchange of money takes the place of a good and the interest rate replaces the price. In essence, it describes how loans are made and borrowed money is exchanged between borrowers and lenders.
