Answer:
$2,205
Explanation:
The amount available after two years can be calculated using the formula
A= P x ( 1 + r) ^n
where A = amount
P= principal: $2000
r = interest rate : 5%, or 0.05
n = number of compound periods: 2
A= $2000 x ( 1 + 0.05)^2
A= $2000 x1.1025
A= $2,205
Principal amount after two years = $2,205
Answer:
a. economies of scale.
Explanation:
Local electricity companies generally have natural monopolies resulting from both economies of scale and/or control of natural resources. Economies of scale refers to the average total costs decreasing as the total output generated by the company increases. For example, it is extremely expensive to generate electricity for 1 single home, but the average total cost for generating electricity for 1 million homes is very low. Generally utilities are monopolies because it is very expensive to set and start operating the company, but once it is operating its average costs per consumer are very low.
Answer:
FV= $126,585.60
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Monthly deposit (A)= $1,721
Interest rate (i)= 0.08/12= 0.0067
Number of periods (n)= 12*5= 60 months
<u>To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:</u>
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
FV= {1,721*[(1.0067^60) - 1]} / 0.0067
FV= $126,585.60
