Answer: $917.54

Explanation:

The current value of the debt of Big Ed's Electrical will be calculated thus:

First, we will calculate the present value which will be:

= $800 / (1 + 4%)

= $800 / ( 1 + 0.04)

= 800 / 1.04

= $769.23

The number of options that are needed

will be:

= (1300 - 800) / ( 300 - 0)

= 500 / 300

= 1.6667

Therefore,

1140 = ( number of option needed × Co) + Present value

1140 = (1.6667 × Co ) + 769.23

Co = (1140 - 769.23 ) / 1.6667

Co = 370.77 / 1.6667

Co = $222.46

Value of debt will now be:

= Current worth of assets - Co

= 1140 - 222.46

= 917.54

Therefore, the answer is $917.54

Alice is trying to save money, so she decides she’ll only buy renters insurance if and when something bad happens at her apartme
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": Insurance companies will only cover losses suffered while the policy is already in place.

Explanation:

Regardless of the type of insurance you purchase, the purpose of the coverage is having a policy in case an unexpected unfortunate event takes place. <em>Insurances do not enroll individuals who need the policy just because of an ongoing accident</em>. Those individuals could enroll in an insurance plan but the ongoing accident will not be covered by the company. Only those events happening when the policy is already valid are subject to evaluation for coverage.

Christina purchased 500 shares of stock at a price of $62.30 a share and sold the shares for $64.25 each. She also received $738
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

1.60 percent

Explanation:

exact real rate of return on this investment = interest rate - inflation rate

total revenue gotten by Christina = ( 500 × $ 64.25) + $ 738 = $ 32863

total money invested = 500 × $ 62.30 = $ 31150

her profit =  $ 32863 - $ 31150  = $ 1713

interest =  $ 1713 / $ 31150 = 0.054992 × 100 = 5.4992 %

exact interest rate = 5.4992 %  - 3.9% = 1.5992 approx 1.60 percent
