You are planning your retirement in 15 years. You plan to retire with $3,000,000 and your retirement account earns 4.8% compound
Maslowich

Answer:

The retirement fund will last for 33 years and 7 months

Explanation:

We need to solve for time in an ordinary annuity

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C  $15,000.00

rate 0.004 (4.8% divide by 12 month)

PV $3,000,000

time n

15,000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.004)^{-n} }{0.004} = 3,000,000\\

we clear for n as much as we can and solve

(1+0.004)^{-n}= 1-\frac{3,000,000\times0.004}{15,000}

(1+0.004)^{-n}= 0.20

now we use logarithmic properties to solve for n:

-n= \frac{log0.2}{log(1+0.004)

-403.16  

this will be a value in months so we divide by 12 to get it annually

403/12 = 33,5833

we convert the residual to months:

0.5833 x 12 = 6.996 = 7 months

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

The firm will sell 600 units at $20

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

d = annual demand for a product in units

p = price per unit

d = 800 - 10p

p must be between $20 and $70.

Elastic demand

We have to calculate how many units the firm will sell at $20

d=800-10*p=800-10*20= 600 units

b. $19,385

c. 27,421.32

Explanation:

Savings = 125,000

Annuity Formula :

(\frac{1}{1.07})^{30} [  \frac{125,000}{0.07} ( 1 - \frac{1}{1.07 ^}^{20} ) ] = \frac{A}{0.07} ( 1 - \frac{1}{0.07 ^ } ^{30} )

Solving the equation we get,

A  = $21,725.65
