When I was considering what to do with my $10,000 lottery winnings, my broker suggested that I invest half of it in gold, the va

Answer: $20,478.78

Explanation:

In 14 years the investment will be,

Gold

10,000/2 = 5000

Then use the compound interest formula

5000 * (1+0.07)^ 14 = $12,892.67

For Certificates of Deposits.

Use the Compound interest formula

Rate and period are in years. Convert to semi annual basis.

3%/ 2 = 1.5%

14 * 2 = 28 periods

= 5000 ( 1+ 0.015) ^ 28

= $7,586.11

Add both

=$12,892.67 + $7,586.11

= $20,478.78

Not more than hundred (100) words describe the nature of Ethics as a core branch of Philosophy.
kumpel [21]

Philosophical ethics differs from legal, religious, cultural and personal approaches to ethics by seeking to conduct the study of morality through a rational, secular outlook that is grounded in notions of human happiness or well-being. A major advantage of a philosophical approach to ethics is that it avoids the authoritarian basis of law and religion as well as the subjectivity, arbitrariness and irrationality that may characterize cultural or totally personal moral views. (Although some thinkers differentiate between "ethics," "morals," "ethical" and "moral,")
