D.) An account earning interest compounded daily.

This is the account that would have the greatest accumulated value at the end of one year.

Let us assume the following figures.
Principal = 1,000
Interest rate = 12% p.a.
Term 1 year 

a) account earning no interest = 1,000
b) account earning simple interest
S.I. = 1,000 x 12% x 1 = 120 
Balance = 1000 + 120= 1,120
c) account earning interest compounded annually
FV = 1,000 (1+.12)¹
FV = 1,000 (1.12)
FV = 1,120
d) account compounded daily
FV = 1,000 (1 + .12/365)³⁶⁵
FV = 1,000 (1 + 0.00033)³⁶⁵
FV = 1,000 (1.00033)³⁶⁵
FV = 1,000 (1.128)
FV = 1,128

Option (d) is correct.

<u>An account that earns the interest compounded daily would have the greatest accumulated value at the end of one year. </u>

<u> </u>

Further Explanation:

Compound interest:  Compound interest is a type of interest where the interest is calculated on the principle and the earned interest. Generally, the principle is considered in the calculation of the interest (simple interest). The compound interest is calculated on the principal amount and the earned interest amount. So, the interest tends to increase because of the compounding nature. Compounding means the ability to earn from prior earnings. So, compound interest earns the interest from the already earned interest in the prior year. It is considered as “interest on interest”.

Rate of compound interest:  The amount of compound interest increases with the increase in the frequency rate. The frequency rate is the rate of compounding the interest. The interest value will be higher when the interest is calculated or compounded more frequently. The amount of interest will be higher in case of a higher number of the compounding period.

In the current case, the interest will be higher in case of daily compounding as the frequency of compounding will be 365 times rather than 1 in case of annual compounding. Compound interest always results in a higher amount of interest than simple interest because of the compounding factor.

<u> Thus, the account that earns the interest compounded daily would have the greatest accumulated value at the end of one year. </u>

<u> </u>

a.

An account earning no interest: This is an incorrect option.

There will be no interest, so it cannot have the highest accumulated value at the end of the year.

b.

An account earning simple interest: This is an incorrect option.

Simple interest results in lower interest amount than compound interest.

c.

An account earning interest compounded annually: This is an incorrect option.

The frequency of annual compound is only 1 as compared to 365 in case of a daily compound.

d.

An account earning interest compounded daily: This is the correct option.

If the interest will be compounded daily; the frequency will be highest out of all the cases so it will result in the accumulated value.

Mercury Company sells tickets in advance for its weekly productions and records the proceeds as Unearned Revenue. At the end of
sattari [20]

Answer:I did the calculations and i believe i got it right.

Explanation:

Mercury sold 500 tickets at $40 a piece, okay, still with me, good. Yet, only 450 tickets were used during the month. What that mean is to minus 50 tickets. 50 multiplied by $40 is $2000. 500 multiplied by $40 equals to $20000. $20000 minus $2000 is equaled to $18000. They also had a Unearned Revenue account that had a credit balance of $5000. So, that means they should be in "debt." They should have $-15000. Add $2000, it is equaled to $-13000. So it should be $-13000. If wrong, i'm sorry.

defon

Answer:

Very small or no dividend

Explanation

Dividend is simply the distribution of profit made by company, firm e.t.c to its shareholders. Most startup company do pay little dividend due to the profit outcome but others do not. It is necessary to pay dividend to shareholders as it shows your devotion and commitment to look after and be in one mind with investors.

most companies that are just startups do not pay a dividend mostly during the early stage of growth. The revenue derived from startup is used to grow and develop the company and not to share with shareholders but sharing little is not bad a all.

natulia [17]

Answer:

a.

Explanation:

According to my research on purchasing decisions and factors, I can say that based on the information provided within the question this is an example of how experience can narrow a customer's perceptions of the value of a product's differentiated features. Since after having hands on experience with the compact, fuel-efficient Japanese import, Anthony began to realize that the Luxury SUV's "value" wasn't really there or "worth it" in his opinion.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
