Explanation:
i=interest rate
X=current rate
2X = double current rate
n = number of years
Calculate time it takes to double at 3%:
2X = X(1+i)^n
simplify by cancelling out X
(1+i)^n = 2
substitute i = 3%
(1.03)^n =2
take log
n*log(1.03) = log(2)
n = log(2)/log(1.03) = 0.6931/0.02956 = 23.45 years
Similarly, for growth rate of 7%,
n = log(2)/log(1.07) = 0.6931 / 0.06766 = 10.24 years
So the difference is 23.45-10.24 = 13.21 years (to the hundredth) sooner
$1,130.28
Formula is A = P (1 + [r/n])^(nt)
A= 879 (1+ [.018/4])^(4*14)
A= 879 (1.0045)^56
A= $1,130.28
A = future total amount
P = principle (amount initially deposited)
r = the annual interest rate (decimal)
n = times that interest is compounded per year (quarterly is 4 times per year)
t = number of years
False. The revenues usually contemplate the profit added to the expenses or costs, therefore, they can't match.
Answer:
Sparrow Co's automobiles are premium brands that command premium prices
Explanation:
The fact that both automobile makers incurs the same cost of $9,000 is just one of many factors to consider because the processes involved in manufacturing are not necessarily the same.
Besides,the level of workforce efficiency and the state of technology deployed are not necessarily the same.
It could also be that Sparrow Co. was able to achieve same level of cost with Bison Autos because it adopted modern cost reductions techniques such as Just-In Time which eliminates the need to keep inventory, thereby eliminating excessive costs of holding inventory.
All in all,Sparrow Co,could project itself as a maker of high-end brands and increase prices as appropriate.
