Determine the price in period 1 (the future) if 30 units of oil are consumed in period 0 (the present).
1 answer:
Answer:
$16.50
Explanation:
Note: The complete question is attached as picture below
We know that there is a total of 90 units of oil and 30 units is consumed in period 0.
So, in period 1, the consumption amount will be = 90-30=60 units.
So, Q1 = 192 - 8P
For 60 units, the price will be 60 = 192 - 8P
8P = 192 - 60
8P = 132
P = 132 / 8
P = 16.5
So, the price in period 1 is $16.50

Answer:
Balance after 30 years = $151,018.50
Explanation:
In order to calculate this, we will calculate the future value on an amount invested, gaining interest over the years of investment, and this is given by:
where:
FV = future value
PV = present value
r = interest rate
t = time in years.
Hence the future value is calculated as follows:
1. For the first 10 years at 7% interest:
7% interest = 7/100 = 0.07
2. For the last 20 years at 9.5%(0.095) interest:
Note that for the remaining 20 years, the present value (PV) used = 24,589.392, as ending balance after the first 10 years
Total Future value earned = $151,018.50
