Answer: 96 / 4 ^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric sequence with a first term of 96. The common ratio is the division of the 2nd term by the first term. This will be:

24/96 = 1/4

a = 96

r = 1/4

The formula will be:

ar ^n-1

= 96 × (1/4)^n-1

The concluding part is explained in the attached file.

Savings account A and savings account B both offer APRs of 5%, but savings account A compounds interest semiannually, while savi
Tamiku [17]

C. Savings account B because it has more compounding periods per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Savings account A has an APR of 5% which compounds interest semiannually. This means that savings account A compounds twice in a year. If account A compounds 5% a time, it would compound 5(2) = 10% in a single year.

Step 2:

Savings account B also has an APR of 5% which compounds interest quarterly. This means that savings account B compounds four times in a year. If account B compounds 5% a time, it would compound 5(4) = 20% in a single year.

Step 3:

Savings account A gets an interest of 5% a year while savings account B gets an interest of 10% so account B offers a higher APR because of more compoundings in a year.

Jack Steele needs $14,500 to computerize his inventory.
Alenkasestr [34]
Given:
Proceeds = $14,500
discount rate = 11%
term = 150 days

Simple discount note:
Discount = Maturity Value * discount rate * term

Proceeds from simple discount note:
proceeds = Maturity Value - discount

We will have to work back:

Discount = Maturity Value * 0.11 * 150/360
Discount = Maturity Value * 0.045833

Discount is 0.045833 of the Maturity Value. The proceeds is net of the Discount so we simple deduct 0.045833 from 1 to get the portion of the proceeds as compared to the Maturity Value. 

14,500 / (1-0.045833) = 14,500 / 0.95416 = 15,196.61

My figure is nearest to choice A. $15,196.51
