Answer:

(a) 40 hours (b)54hours (c) $551.2 (d) $62.01 (e) $744.12

Explanation:

(a)To calculate hours worked each day, since the regular work week is 40 hours with five 8 hours day

= Monday to Friday 8 hours

= 8 × 5

= 40 hours

(b) To calculate the total hours worked , we will first convert to 24 hour clock, then subtract the starting time from ending time to obtain the total hours

Monday = 8 am - 4pm ( 16 - 8) = 8hours

Tuesday = 8am - 6pm ( 18 - 8) = 10 hours

Wednesday = 8am -4pm (16 - 8)= 8hours

Thursday = 8.30 am - 6pm (18.5 - 8) = 10.5 hours

Friday = 8am - 4.30pm ( 18 - 8.5) = 9.5 hours

Saturday = 8am - 12pm (18 - 14) = 4 hours

Sunday = 8am -12pm (18 - 14)= 4hours

Total hours worked = 8 + 10 + 8 + 10.5 + 9.5 + 4 + 4

= 54hours

Hours worked × regular wage rate

= 40 × 13.78

= $551.2

(d) To calculate the overtime earning

Overtime is used to be paid at rate of time and a half, since overtime occurs on the following days

Tuesday = 10 hours(8 .5 - 10) = 1.5

Thursday = 10.5 hours (8.5 - 10.5) = 2.0

Friday = 9.5 hours (8.5 - 9.5) = 1.0

Overtime hour × regular wage rate

Tuesday = 1.5 × 13.78 = $20.67

Thursday = 2.0 × 13.78 = $27.56

Friday = 1.0 × 13.78 = $13.78

Total overtime earning = 20.67 + 27.56 + 13.78

=$62.01

(e) The total earning

= hours worked × Total hours worked per week

= 54 × 13.78

=$744.12

Debbie Brooks and Martha Tingstrom lived together. Tingstrom handled their finances. For five years, Brooks did not look at any

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Debbie Brooks is the one who will suffer the loss for the checks paid with Brook's forged signature.

Explanation:

Debbie Brooks is the one who will suffer the loss for the checks paid with Brook's forged signature because Brooks was supposed to be checking the statement regarding her accounts frequently . By that, she could have discovered that Tingstrom had taken $85,000 from her checking account with Transamerica Financial Advisors and hence be able to sue her.

After Debbies Brooks discovered what Martha had done, she should have have stopped the transaction immediately but instead another year passed before she filed a suit against Transamerica. Hence, she will be one who will suffer from the forged signature.

Matt inherited as a trust a fifteen-year annuity-immediate with annual payments. He has been told that the annuity payments earn

Pavel [41]

Answer:

effective annual interest rate = 6.32%

annual payment = $1,585

Explanation:

I believe that this is an ordinary annuity, so we can use the future and present value of an ordinary annuity formula:

FV = annual payment x FV annuity factor, so annual payment = FV / FV annuity factor

PV = annual payment x PV annuity factor, so annual payment = PV / PV annuity factor

we can equal both equations:

PV / PV annuity factor = FV / FV annuity factor

FV / PV = FV annuity factor / PV annuity factor

$37,804.39 / $15,077.10 = FV annuity factor / PV annuity factor

2.5074 = FV annuity factor / PV annuity factor

the easiest way to solve this is to use an annuity table since we already know that there are 15 periods (I used an excel spreadsheet):

%,15 periods FV annuity factor PV annuity factor FV/PV

1 16.097 13.865 1.1609

2 17.293 12.849 1.34586

3 18.599 11.938 1.55797

4 20.024 11.118 1.80104

5 21.579 10.380 2.07890

6 23.276 9.7122 2.3966

7 25.129 9.1079 2.7590

8 27.152 8.5595 3.1721

9 29.361 8.0607 3.6425

10 31.772 7.6061 4.4112

The interest rate must be between 6 and 7%:

%,15 periods FV annuity factor PV annuity factor FV/PV

6 23.276 9.7122 2.3966

6.1 23.45404 9.6461 2.43145

6.2 23.63369 9.5858 2.46549

6.3 23.81491 9.52467 2.50034

6.31 23.83312 9.51851 2.50387

6.32 23.85135 9.51236 2.5074

6.4 23.99773 9.46337 2.53585

effective interest rate = 6.32% per year

annual payment = $37,804.39 / 23.85135 = $1,585
