Stretch goals expect group members to _____.
rewona [7]

Answer:

The answer is work outside their own comfort group as they attempt to understand others’ perspectives.

Explanation:

Stretch goals tend to be a form of job enrichment, where individuals are challenged to perform better than their most recent performance achievement. In the context of group assignment, individuals are challenged to try things outside of their comfort zone. Stretch goals aren’t related to actual physical exercise, thus making answer (B) wrong, and automatically disqualifying answer (D). Nor does it require members to (A) take a break in order to avoid topic-fatigue.

Mark and Kate are establishing a fund for their son's college education. They would like $60,000 in the fund at the end of 10 ye
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The lump sum amount to be deposited should be $27,020.67

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Future value = $60,000

Time, t = 10 years

Interest rate, r = 8% = 0.08

Compounded monthly i.e number of periods n = 12

Now,

Future value = Amount deposited ×  \left( 1 + \frac{r}{n} \right)^{\Large{n \times t}}

Therefore,

on substituting the respective values, we get

$60,000 = Amount deposited ×  \left( 1 + \frac{0.08}{12} \right)^{\Large{12 \times 10}}

or

$60,000 = Amount deposited × ( 1.00667 )¹²⁰

or

$60,000 = Amount deposited × 2.220522

or

Amount deposited = $60,000 ÷ 2.220522

or

Amount deposited = $27,020.67

Hence,

The lump sum amount to be deposited should be $27,020.67

Suppose that the natural rate of unemployment in a particular year is 5 percent and the actual rate of unemployment is 9 percent
Helen [10]

According to Okun’s law, for every 1 percentage point by which the actual unemployment rate exceeds the natural rate, a negative GDP gap of about 2 percent occurs. The actual unemployment rate exceeds the natural rate by 4 percent. This is calculated as follows :

Actual unemployment – natural unemployment = 9 – 5 = 4%.

Thus, according to Okun’s law the GDP gap is -8%.

If the potential GDP is $ 500 billion, the actual GDP is 8% lower than the potential GDP. In other words, 8% of the $ 500 billion is being forgone because of cyclical unemployment.

GDP forgone = 8% x potential GDP = 8% x 500 = $40 billion
