There is a very thin line of difference between recession and depression. when the real GDP falls for a repeated number of periods, then it is depression.
Answer:
$77,217
$11,289
Explanation:
Fist we will calculate the present value of $10,000 payment
A fix Payment for a specified period of time is called annuity. The discounting of these payment on a specified rate is known as present value of annuity. The value of the annuity is also determined by the present value of annuity payment.
Formula for Present value of annuity is as follow
PV of annuity = P x [ ( 1- ( 1+ r )^-n ) / r ]
Where
P = Annual payment = $10,000
r = rate of return = 10% / 2 = 5%
n = number of period = 5 years x 2 semiannual payments per year = 10 payments
PV of annuity = $10,000 x [ ( 1- ( 1+ 0.05 )^-10 ) / 0.05 ]
PV of Annuity = $77,217
Now we will use the discounting method to calculate the present value of lump sum payment of $20,000
Present value = Future value x Present value factor
PV = FV x ( 1 + r )^-n
PV = $20,000 x ( 1 + 0.1 )^-6
PV = $11,289
Well, you just need to find it using this formula :
5,000 x [100 % - (3% x 91/365)]
= 5,000 x [ 100 % - 0.007479]
= 5,000 x 99.992521
= $ 4,962.50 >>> rounded

Statistical Quality Control<span> is the process managers use to continually monitor all phases of the production process to ensure that quality is being built into the product from the beginning and that quality is not being inspected into the product at the end of the production process.
All products go through a quality control procedure to make sure their products meet industry and company standards. Organizations do this to ensure they are putting out the smallest amount of defects as possible when creating items to sell to wholesalers or consumers. </span>
