Solution:

Let x = amount invested at 6% and

let y = amount invested at 2%.

We can set up some equations that describe x and y:

 

"$17,200 is invested total" means

x + y = $17,200

 "The interest earned from the amount invested at 6% exceeds the interest earned from the amount invested at 2% by $441.00" means

0.06x = 0.02y + $441.00

 

Solve for x in the first equation to get x = 17,200 - y, then plug that into the second equation and solve for y:

 

0.05(17,200 - y) = 0.02y + 441.00

860 - 0.06y = 0.02y + 865.35

5.35 - 0.09y = 0.02y

154.80 = 0.11 y

1407 = y

 

So, $1407 was invested at 2%. Plug y = 1407 into the first equation and solve for x:

 

x + 1407 = 17,200

x = 15,793

 

So, $15,793 was invested at 6%.

Why is inflation both good and bad how does the government try to control it?
Kaylis [27]
<span>Inflation is good because it keeps the economy growing as wages increase and demand for goods goes up, but if inflation gets high then the economy can become overheated when prices go up too fast and people can't afford goods. The Federal Reserve Bank, if you're in the USA, will then raise interest rates to make loans more expensive and rewarding people for not spending money, which slows down the economy back to a healthy state.</span>

Double entry, a fundamental concept underlying present-day bookkeeping and accounting, states that every financial transaction has equal and opposite effects in at least two different accounts. It is used to satisfy the accounting equation:

Assets
=
Liabilities
+
Equity

​
Assets=Liabilities+Equity
​


With a double entry system, credits are offset by debits in a general ledger or T-account.

So debit is the answer

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Frost (Lessee) and Ananz (Lessor)

The circumstance that would require Frost to classify and account for the arrangement as a finance lease is:

c. The economic life of the computers is three years.

Explanation:

a) Data:

Annual lease payments = $8,000

Present value of the minimum lease payments = $13,000

Fair value of the computer = $14,000

The economic life of the computers = 3 years

The lease period = 2 years

b) One of the conditions for classifying the lease arrangement as a finance lease is that the lease term of 2 years forms a significant part of the asset's useful life of 3 years.  Other conditions include:

Firstly, ownership of the asset is transferred to the lessee at the end of the lease term.  The second condition is that the lessee can purchase the asset below its fair value.
