Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Reference base year is 2000 and as it's the base year, So the CPI is 100.

Now  

The prices have risen by 187% by 2016 means the CPI is

= 100 +  187% of 100

= 287.

And,  

There is 3.4% inflation in 2017 that means prices have increased by 3.7% in 2017 compared to 2016.

Now  

CPI is 287 + 3.4% of 287

= 296.758

CPI in 2017 = 296.758

In 2018, inflation is 3.7%,

CPI = 296.758 + 3.7%

= 307.74

CPI in 2018 = 307.74

In 2019, CPI is 318, which is approx 3.3% higher than as compared to the year 2018 so

Brazil's cost of living rised in 2019.

CPI of Brazil in 2017 is 296.76

CPI of Brazil in 2018 is 307.74

So,  

Brazil's cost of living increases every year

Suppose Renee Beaver can prove that she did not actually sign an exculpatory clause and this fact convinces race organizers to p
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Explanation: At common law, minors are allowed to enter into contracts, never minding their provisions. The validity of the contract and its' individual provisions themselves, may or may not be enforceable depending on many other factors.

Therefore, exculpatory clauses are generally not favored by courts and when they are upheld, they are construed strictly against those attempting to invoke them.

Beaver attempted to disaffirm the contract in what is assumed to be a reasonable time by her action of filing suit against the operator. However, most states only permit a minor to disaffirm a contract in its' entirety.

some courts refuse to allow minors to disaffirm fully performed contracts unless they can return all consideration received; and some courts permit disaffirmance but subject the minor to tort liability for his or her misrepresentation.

Also, the court could conclude that Beaver did in fact implicitly accept its terms. However, when a minor enters into a contract, she or he may only accept the terms of the previously unenforceable contract if they do so within a reasonable time after they reach the age of majority. Beaver's filing of a lawsuit against the operator likely constitutes an action intending to implicitly disaffirm the terms, the absence of which is required to affirm a contract by a minor.

RSB [31]

Answer:

$419,253

Explanation:

we must find the present value of a growing annuity:

present value = [monthly payment / (i - g)] x [1 - [(1 + g)ⁿ x (1 + i)⁻ⁿ]

  • monthly payment = $2,000
  • i = (1 + 0.06/12)¹² - 1 = 0.061678 / 12 = 0.005139833
  • g = 5% / 12 = 0.004166667
  • n = 20 x 12 = 240

present value = [$2,000 / (0.00514 - 0.00416)] x [1 - [(1 + 0.00416)²⁴⁰ x (1 + 0.00514)⁻²⁴⁰] = $2,040,816 x [1 - (2.7083 x 0.293) = $2,040,816 x (1 - 0.794566) = $419,252.99 = $419,253
