Answer:

6 days

Explanation:

Overnight cost

Shipping fee = $300

Holding cost - ($200 * 80 )*30% = $4800

Two days

Shipping fee = $260

Saving = 300 - 260 = $40

Holding cost for an extra day

((200*80)*30%) * 1 /365 = $13.15

Savings = $26.85

Six day

Shipping fee =$180

Saving = $300 - $180 = $120

Holding cost for extra five days

((200*80)*30%)*5/365 = $65.75

Savings = $120-$65.75

$54.25

James Perkins wants to have a million dollars at retirement, which is 15 years away. He already has $200,000 in an IRA earning 8
Lelu [443]

Solution :

Given :

James needs $ 1,000,000 after 15 years.

His IRA deposit is $ 200,000 and is earning at the rate of 8% per annum.

Maturity value of $200,000 after 15 years = 2000000 \times( 1.08)^{15}

                                                                     = $ 634,434.

Balance fund needed after 15 years = 1,000,000 - 634,434

                                                           = $ 365,566

Therefore, the future value of the annuity is :

FV=A[\frac{(1+k)^n-1}{k}]

Here, FV = future annuity value = 365,566

            A = periodical investment

            k = interest rate = 8%

            n = period = 15 years

∴365566 = A\frac{[(1.08)^{15}-1]}{0.08}

       A = 13,464

Thus, James needs to save $ 13,464 each year end to reach his target.
