question 14(multiple choice worth 5 points) (04.02 mc) who was intended to benefit from the land act of 1800? a large-scale farm

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Since the government aimed to make westward migration more appealing to immigrants, "A poor family that coveted property" was primarily those who benefited.

Due to their inability to purchase a farm at an affordable price, many ended up squatting on public property without a valid title. The Harrison's Land Act of 1800 decreased the minimum purchase size from 640 acres to 320 acres and added a credit provision. A quarter of the total cost had to be paid up front, and the remaining amount had to be paid over the course of four years with an extra year added on for late payments.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

A decrease in the price of domestically produced industrial robots will be reflected in the GDP deflator but not in the consumer price index.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Although from the outset, CPI and GDP Deflator might measure something very similar, there are a couple of key contrasts. The first is that GDP Deflator incorporates just local merchandise and nothing that is imported. This is diverse because the CPI includes anything purchased by buyers, including remote merchandise.

The subsequent contrast is that the GDP Deflator is a proportion of the costs all things considered and benefits while the CPI is a proportion of just merchandise purchased by shoppers.

RuthAnn is 28 years old and is retiring at the age of 65. When she retires, she estimates that she will need an annual income of

inessss [21]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

From her current age of 28 to her retirement age of 65, RuthAnn has (65 - 28 =) 37 more years to work.

If she saves 11% of her annual income of $36,278.13 into a 401(k), she will be setting aside (11% * 36,278.13 =) $3,990.59 into the 401(k) account annually.

At 7.1% compounding rate, in 37 years, RuthAnn would have set aside an amount estimated by the future value of an annuity formula.

$FV = \frac{A(1+r)^{n} - 1}{r}$

where FV is the future value, the amount that would have been set aside,

A = is the annual savings,

r = is the compounding rate, and

n = is the number of years.

Therefore, the total amount that would be saved up after 37 years =

$FV = \frac{3,990.59(1+0.071)^{37} - 1}{0.071}$

= (3,990.59 * 11.6535)/0.071

= $654,990.31.

By spending $32,523 annually from an account earning 7.1% compound interest rate for 30 years, the present value of the total amount needed by RuthAnn today that will be sufficient for her retirement spending can be estimated using the present value of an annuity formula.

$PV = \frac{A(1 - (1+r)^{-n}}{r}$

= $PV = \frac{32,523(1 - (1.071)^{-30}}{0.071}$

= (32523 * 0.8723)/0.071

= $399,574.83.

Since the amount saved up ($654,990.31) is more than the total amount required for RuthAnn's retirement ($399,574.83), RuthAnn has more than sufficient to meet her Retirement goal.

Specifically, the amount she has saved up can support a maximum annual spending which can be estimated from the present value of an annuity formula.

$PV = \frac{A(1 - (1+r)^{-n}}{r}$

where PV = the amount saved up, $654,990.31,

A = the annual spending which we are estimating,

r = the 7.1% compound interest rate,

n = the number of years to retirement.

$654,990.31 = \frac{A(1 - (1.071)^{-30}}{0.071}$

= 654,990.31 = (A * 0.8723)/0.071

= A = 654,990.31/0.8723 * 0.071

= A = 53,312.29

Thus, the amount saved up can support a maximum retirement spending of $53,312.29, which is higher than the $32,523 annual income needed by RuthAnn for her retirement.
