seropon [69]

Answer: False

Explanation:

Bankruptcy Trustees are usually lawyers and this is why people think that they must always be lawyers but this is not the case.

The United States Trustee who is an officer of the Department of Justice and the one in charge of appointing Bankruptcy Trustees, can appoint a person other than a licensed attorney to be the representative of an estate for bankruptcy related matters (trustee) such as accountants or financial planners.

Cushing's syndrome, also known as hypercortisolism, is a disease caused by the increase in the hormone cortisol. This excess cortisol can be caused by various causes. The most common, which affects 60 or 70% of patients, is an adenoma in the pituitary gland; This form of the syndrome is specifically known as Cushing's disease. Other causes of Cushing's syndrome are tumors or abnormalities in the adrenal glands, chronic glucocorticoid use or excessive ACTH production caused by a pituitary adenoma. ACTH is the hormone, produced by the pituitary gland, that stimulates the adrenal glands to produce cortisol. This disorder was described by the American neurosurgeon doctor Harvey Cushing, who reported it in 1932.

Matt inherited as a trust a fifteen-year annuity-immediate with annual payments. He has been told that the annuity payments earn

Pavel [41]

Answer:

effective annual interest rate = 6.32%

annual payment = $1,585

Explanation:

I believe that this is an ordinary annuity, so we can use the future and present value of an ordinary annuity formula:

FV = annual payment x FV annuity factor, so annual payment = FV / FV annuity factor

PV = annual payment x PV annuity factor, so annual payment = PV / PV annuity factor

we can equal both equations:

PV / PV annuity factor = FV / FV annuity factor

FV / PV = FV annuity factor / PV annuity factor

$37,804.39 / $15,077.10 = FV annuity factor / PV annuity factor

2.5074 = FV annuity factor / PV annuity factor

the easiest way to solve this is to use an annuity table since we already know that there are 15 periods (I used an excel spreadsheet):

%,15 periods FV annuity factor PV annuity factor FV/PV

1 16.097 13.865 1.1609

2 17.293 12.849 1.34586

3 18.599 11.938 1.55797

4 20.024 11.118 1.80104

5 21.579 10.380 2.07890

6 23.276 9.7122 2.3966

7 25.129 9.1079 2.7590

8 27.152 8.5595 3.1721

9 29.361 8.0607 3.6425

10 31.772 7.6061 4.4112

The interest rate must be between 6 and 7%:

%,15 periods FV annuity factor PV annuity factor FV/PV

6 23.276 9.7122 2.3966

6.1 23.45404 9.6461 2.43145

6.2 23.63369 9.5858 2.46549

6.3 23.81491 9.52467 2.50034

6.31 23.83312 9.51851 2.50387

6.32 23.85135 9.51236 2.5074

6.4 23.99773 9.46337 2.53585

effective interest rate = 6.32% per year

annual payment = $37,804.39 / 23.85135 = $1,585

The low-attendance day falls on an autumn Wednesday, while the high-attendance day falls on a summer Saturday.

Explanation:

The most probable reason may be the dates are at different time period, when the demand is lower and therefore the price must be lower to generate enought attendance to make it profitable. While, the second date is onpeak demand.
