Answer:

  $2837.13

Explanation:

The account value is multiplied by 1 +12% = 1.12 each year, so at the end of 5 years, it will have been multiplied by 1.12^5. For some investment P, we want ...

  5000 = P×1.12^5

  5000/1.12^5 = P ≈ $2837.13

James must deposit about $2837.13 now to have the required amount in 5 years.

What is the safest option when it comes to storing money?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
Hi there! There is no 100% safest option when storing money. It depends on the amount, and specific options. For example : personal safe/ vault in secured and well protected home. Another example would be a bank, with low security. I believe it is circumstantial. I think it is best to have a secured personal house/ building with high security. Hope this helps! : )

A company is deciding if it should design an advertising system for use on Twitter©. The first option is to skip out on designin
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

SYSTEM A

Explanation:

Given the following :

First option :

Skip design = No net gain or loss

System A:

Additional sales of $50,000 under good condition

Additional sales of $10,000 under bad condition

System B:

Increase sale by $20,000 under both good and bad condition

Cost of system development = $25,000

Good condition are twice as likely to occur as bad condition

Hence, we have : good, good, bad

Probability of good = 2/3 = 0.667

Probability of bad = 1/3 = 0.333

We can calculate the Expected monetary Value of the three options :

First option:

Skip design : Expected monetary Value = $0

Second option (SYSTEM A) :

Profit from good condition :

Additional sales - system cost = ($50,000 - $25,000) =$25, 000

Loss from bad condition :

($25,000 - $10,000) = - $15,000

Expected monetary value:

(0.667 * 25000) + (0.33 * - 15000)

$16675 - $4950

= $11,680

Third option (SYSTEM B) :

Additional sales - system cost

$20,000 - $25,000 = - $5,000

From the expected monetary value obtained for the three options, System A is the best option with $11,680
