Milton Friedman argues that a business's only social responsibility is to maximize profits within the rules of the game.

Fiscal policy is defined as changes in federal ________ and ________ to achieve macroeconomic objectives such as price stability

wariber [46]

Answer:

expenditures and taxes

Explanation:

Fiscal policy refers to a government action to adjust taxes and expenditures to influence economic growth. Taxes are the main sources of income for the government. A rise in taxes increases revenue to the government but lower individual disposable income. High taxes discourage investments and business expansion.

Government expenditure in infrastructure and other projects creates employment and incomes in the economy. Reduced spending by the government may result in a lower aggregate demand. The government uses fiscal policies together with monetary policies to achieve its economic goals.

You plan to invest in bonds that pay 6.0%, compounded annually. If you invest $10,000 today, how many years will it take for you

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The answer is 16 years.

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the value of an investment that is compounded annually is given by:

$V(n)=(1+R)^nP$

Where:

$n$ is the number of years the investment is compounded,

$R$ is the annual interest rate,

$P$ is the principal investment.

We know the following:

$25000=(1+0.06)^n \times 10000$

And we want to clear the value n from the equation.

The problem can be resolved as follows.

First step: divide each member of the equation by $10,000$ :

$\frac{ 25000}{10000}=(1+0.06)^n \times \frac{ 10000}{10000}$

$2.5=(1.06)^n$

Second step: apply logarithms to both members of the equation:

$log(2.5)=log (1.06)^n$

Third step: apply the logarithmic property $logA^n=n.logA$ in the second member of the equation:

$log(2.5)=n.log (1.06)$

Fourth step: divide both members of the equation by $log1.06$

$\frac{log(2.50)}{log (1.06)} =n$

$n= 15.7252$

We can round up the number and conclude that it will take 16 years for $10,000 invested today in bonds that pay 6% interest compounded annually, to grow to $25,000.
