Answer:

the amount available is $160,463

Explanation:

The computation of the amount available for the daughter's college expenses on her 18th birthday is shown below:

= First deposit × ((1 + rate of interest)^number of years - (1 + growth rate)^number of years) ÷ (rate of interest - growth rate)

= $2,400 × ((1 + 0.09)^18 - (1 + 0.07)^18) ÷ (0.09 - 0.07)

= $160,463

hence, the amount available is $160,463

sladkih [1.3K]

To achieve a target profit of $930,000, Softies' sales must be $1,520,000.

<h3>What is target profit?</h3>
  • Target profit is the amount of profit that a company's managers anticipate achieving by the conclusion of a specific accounting period.
  • Typically, the target profit is established from the budgeting process and is compared to the actual result in the income statement.
  • If they chose to earn a 20% margin on each sale, they will make a $50 profit on each chair sold.
  • As a result, if the corporation wishes to make $50 per chair and sell the chair for $200, the chair must be manufactured for $150 or less.

To find the target profit of Softie, Inc.:

  • Sales = ($240,400 + $930,000) ÷ 0.77
  • = $1,520,000

Therefore, to achieve a target profit of $930,000, Softies' sales must be $1,520,000.
