Answer:

Worth of scholarship today =  $1,000,000

Explanation:

<em>The value of the scholarship can be determined using the present value of a growing perpetuity. A growing perpetuity is an indefinite annual payment that increases by a constant percentage.</em>

<em>The applicable formula is given below;</em>

<em>PV = A/r-g</em>

A-annual payment  one year from now - 35,000

r- interest discount rate - 9.,

g- growth rate - 5.5

The value of the gifts today

= 35,000/(0.09-0.055)

= $1,000,000

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Annual interest rate= 3%

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Present value= $9,850

Future value= $10,000

Number of days= 182

<u>First, we need to calculate the daily interest rate. We will use a financial calculator (the formula is incredibly difficult to use):</u>

<u></u>

Function= CMPD

n= 182

I%= SOLVE = 0.0083

PV= 9,850

FV= -10,000

<u>Now, the annual interest rate:</u>

Annual interest rate= 0.0083*365= 3.02 = 3%

brilliants [131]

Answer:

The radio spot should reply on the peripheral route to persuasion.

Explanation:

The peripheral route to persuasion happens when the audience chooses whether to concur with the message dependent on different cues, besides the strength of the contentions or thoughts in the message.

Peripheral route of influence isn't being convinced by actualities yet by fame and popularity. It is shallow and is generally based on attractiveness. There is no elaboration and crowds are passive. Individuals utilize mental alternate ways for this. Change through this course is impermanent and leaves rapidly.

North Around, Inc. stock is expected to return 22 percent in a boom, 13 percent in a normal economy, and −15 percent in a recess
almond37 [142]

Answer:

4.53%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Expected return = ∑ (Return × probability)

Thus,

Expected return = (0.06 × 22) + (0.92 × 13) + (0.02 × (-15))

= 12.98%

Now,

Probability       Return        Probability × (Return-Expected Return)²

0.06                  22                   0.06 × (22% - 12.98%)² = 4.8816

0.92                  13                    0.92 × (13% - 12.98%)² = 0.000368

0.02                  -15                   0.02 × (-15% - 12.98%)² = 5.657608

========================================================

                                                                            Total = 20.5396%

Standard deviation = \sqrt{\frac{\text{Total probability}\times(\text{Return-Expected Return})^2}{\text{Total probability}}

= √(20.5396)

= 4.53%

Rina8888 [55]
<span>Breached. Explanation: A contract is a legally binding agreement between two parties. Once an agreement is signed between two parties, both parties are subject to terms and conditions written in the agreement. As in the above example, Flora agrees to sell harvesters grocery a minimum quantity of fresh fruits and vegetables every week for three months, that means Flora is subject to the agreement that she will sell that no matter what the future market price will be, whether it increases or decreases. As Flora decides not to deliver the agreed order, it is a violation of terms and conditions of the agreement/contract. So the contract is breached.</span>
