Answer:

$235.5

Explanation:

Total Earnings= 40 hours X $7.50 = $300 (Gross earnings)

Health insurance sum = Health insurance % X Gross earnings=15/100 X $300= $45

Pension Deduction Sum= Pension % X Gross earnings = 6.5 /100 X $300 = $19.5

From above calculation, the total deduction is $45 + $19.5 = $64.5

From the above calculation, the new pay is = $300 - $64.5 = $235.5

Sue plans to mix peppermints worth $1.20 per lb with chocolates worth $2.40 per lb to get a 40 lb mix that is worth $1.65 per lb
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Each should be used as follows:

Weight of peppermints = X = 25 lb

Weight of Chocolates = Y = 15 lb

Explanation:

Suppose

Weight of peppermints = X

Weight of Chocolates = Y

So According to given condition

X + Y = 40 (Eq. 1)

1.2X + 2.4Y = 1.65*40

1.2X + 2.4Y = 66 (Eq. 2)

By multiplying  (Eq. 1) with 1.2 we get

1.2X + 1.2Y = 48  (Eq. 3)

Now by subtracting  (Eq. 2) from  (Eq. 3)

(1.2X + 1.2Y) - (1.2X + 2.4Y) = 48 - 66

1.2X + 1.2Y - 1.2X - 2.4Y = -18

1.2X - 1.2X + 1.2Y - 2.4Y = -18 (Rearrange)

-1.2Y = -18

1.2Y = 18

Y = 18/1.2

Y = 15

By placing value of Y in (Eq. 1)

X + 15 = 40

X = 40 - 15

X = 25

<u>Check</u>

1.2X + 2.4Y = 66

1.2 (25) + 2.4 (15) = 66

66 = 66

A bank loaned out 19,000 part of it at 6% interest per year and the rest at 14% per year. if the interest recieved in one year t
Ksju [112]
Let x be the part of 19,000 that was loaned out at 6% such that the remaining 19,000 - x was loaned out at 14%. The interest is calculated by the equation,

    I = P x i x n

where P is the principal amount, i is the interest, n is the number of years. Substituting the known values,

   2000 = (x)(0.06) + (19000 - x)(0.14)

The value of x from the equation above is 8250.

Hence, 8,250 was loaned out at 6%.

Eduardwww [97]

A. $840,000

B. Discount

C. Annual interest expense on these bonds will be more than  the amount of interest paid each year.

Explanation:

Data

Bonds issued = $21,000,000

Coupin rate = 4.0%

Market Interest rate = 4.46%

Requirement A: Annual interest amount

Interest amount = Bonds issued x coupon rate

Interest amount = $21,000,000 x 4.0%

Interest amount = $840,000

Requirement B: Whether it is Premium or Discount?

Bonds that Atom Endeavour Co. issued are discount as you can clearly see in the data that the market rate is higher than the coupon rate. Investors who will buy these bonds surely expect a capital gain.

Requirement C:

The discount on the issue of bonds is amortized to interest expense over the life of the bond, therefore the interest expense on these bonds will be more than the amount of interest paid each year,
