The formula for exponential growth rate is:

A = Ao e^(k t)

where A is the final standard of living, Ao is the initial, k is the growth rate constant in decimal = 0.08, t is time elapsed

 

So we will find t at A/Ao = 2

A/Ao = e^(k t)

2 = e^( 0.08 t)

t = 8.66 ~ since more than therefore 9

 

So by the time they reached age 29

Suppose you found a CD that pays 4.9% interest compounded monthly for 4 years. If you deposit $10,000 now, how much will you hav
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

=$11,580.00

Explanation:

The CD pays 4.9 percent compounded monthly for four years.

In one year, there will be 12 occasions of compounding; after four years, there would be 12 x 4 = 36 compounds.

The interest rate per year is 4.9 percent; monthly interest will be 4.9 /12, which is 0.4083 percent.

The amount in four years is the same as the future value after four years.

=FV = PV (1+r)n

Pv =$10,000

r=0.4083 %

N =36

Fv = 10,000(1+0.4083/100)36

=10,000(1+0.004083)36

=$10000 x 1.1579932

=$11,579. 932

=$11,580.00

Leokris [45]

Answer: Opportunity cost of returning to college next year is $1,000,000.

Explanation: Opportunity cost is the cost of the next best alternative sacrificed or foregone. When the athlete chooses to join college he is sacrificing his income that could be earned from playing the game. The player has the option of playing for the minor league baseball team for $1,000,000 or for European professional football team for ​$500,000. The person thus has a choice between playing for the minor league baseball team (since it is the highest paying) or going to college. Thus the opportunity cost of going to college will be $1,000,000.

Suppose a perfectly competitive firm is producing 37 units output, and the marginal cost of the 37th unit is $3. If the firm can
sesenic [268]

Answer:

C) increase production.

Explanation:

Competitive firms maximize their accounting profits when marginal revenue (MR) = marginal cost (MC).

In a perfectly competitive market, all the producers and the consumers are price takers, so they cannot change the price of the goods. So changing the sales price is not possible. Since the marginal revenue is greater than the marginal cost, the firm should increase its production output until MR = MC.

Differentiate between cash-basis accounting and accrual-basis accounting. Why is accrual-basis accounting the preferred method f
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Reason : To ensure constant flow of cash

Explanation:

<u>Accrual Basis of accounting</u> records transactions when they meet definition and recognition criteria of Assets, Liabilities,Equity, Expense and Incomes.

This is different from<u> cash-basis accounting</u> which records transactions at the receipt or payment of cash.

Because of <em>timing</em> difference, the cash transactions (cash basis) can happen a late than the day of recognition of the elements (accrual basis).

Hence Revenue services demand that income tax be calculated on accrual basis to ensure a constant flow of cash whenever an entity transact.
