You put aside $300 a month in an account that returns 9% a year, compounded monthly. How long do you need to contribute to save
Anettt [7]

Answer:

36 years 4 months and 2 days

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Monthly payment = $300

Rate of return, i = 9% = 0.09

Future value = $1,000,000

Now,

we know

Future value = Monthly payments × \left[ \frac{(1+i)^{n}-1}{i} \right]

or

1000000  = $300 × \left[ \frac{(1+0.0075)^{ }-1}{ 0.0075 }

or

\frac{ 1000000}{ 300} &= \frac{ 1.0075^{n} - 1}{ 0.0075}

3333.33333 &= \frac{ 1.0075^{n} - 1}{ 0.0075}

1.0075^{n} - 1 &= 3333.33333 \times0.0075

or

1.0075ⁿ - 1 = 25

or

1.0075ⁿ = 26

ln( 1.0075ⁿ) = ln(26)

or

n × ln( 1.0075 ) = ln(26)

or

n = [tex]\frac{ \ln (26) }{ \ln( 1.0075 ) }[tex]

or

n = 436.04  months

or

n = 36 years 4 months and 2 days

Consider the following facts for health haven?
pochemuha

Answer:

attached below is the missing part of the question

$17000

Explanation:

1) calculate the cash dividends

  = beginning earnings + net income for the period - ending retained earnings

 = $44000 + $57000 - $68000 = $33000

2 ) calculate the amount of cash receipt from the sale of plant assets

first we will calculate the dep on sale of plant products

= beginning accumulated depreciation + depreciation expense - ending accumulated depreciation

= 22500 + 12000 - 24500 = $10000

next we calculate the cost of sale of plant assets

= beginning plant asset + acquisition new plant assets - ending plant asset

= $123500 + $29000 - $131500 = $21000

Hence the cash receipt from the sale plant assets = cost of sale of plant assets - dep on sale of plant products + gain on the sale of plant assets

= 21000 - 10000 + 6000 = $17000

Compare and contrast anticipatory and response-based business models. Why has responsiveness become popular in supply chain coll
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Forecast and planning

Explanation:

An anticipatory model is a model under which market forecast determines the production of products by the manufacturer, and purchases by retailers also determined by forecasts and promotional plans. Since the forecasts are wrong most of the times, anticipatory model usually leads to differences in the actual production of the firms and what they initially planned to produce.  

Anticipatory Model is a risky model because anticipation of future events always determines the work to do by the firm.

On the contrary, the Responsive Business Model does not depend on forecasts, but ensure that what to be done are adequately planned and information among firms in the supply chain are properly exchanged. This makes the model not to be risky and ensure doing more than what has already been planned is avoided. Therefore, the aim of the responsive model which also known as Pull Model is to eliminate reliance on forecast.  

The major reason the Responsive Model has become popular in supply chain collaborations is that it allows for the customization of products on smaller orders by customers.  However, the Anticipatory Model does not give customers any choice or power but to buy or not buy.
