Answer:

56.67%

Explanation:

Purchase cost = 30 dollars

Margin x price = 0.60x30 = $18

30-18 = $12

Profit = $47 - $30 - 0.07(12)

= 16.16

Percentage earned = (16.16 /18) * 100

= 89.78%

Profit from the trade

= 47-30

= 17

Percentage earned = 17/30 * 100

= 56.67%

The return would have been 56 67% if the investor had not done this.

Assume that Jack, Hal, and Sophia enter into a valid contract for the sale of the restaurant and for the covenant not to compete
Andrei [34K]

Answer: C. Reformation

Explanation: A non-compete agreement or clause is a legal binding entered into by two or more parties which restricts the parties from being in competition with the other usually through the sale of similar product. However, in the context above, since the non-compete clause has been breached by Jack, and the judge feels the time constraint in the clause was unreasonably long, The reformation process will be best to remediate the situation, which refers to the change or alteration of the terms of an existing document using the judicial process and requires the conformation of the parties involved.

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

The answer would be, $21,760

Explanation:

The formula to be used is  that of calculating the present value (PV) of the payment in the ordinary annuity (PMT). PMT are done annually, semi-annually, quarterly or monthly.

PV = PMT * ((1-(1/ (1+r) n))/r)

Where PV is the present value; PMT is the payment in an ordinary annuity; r is the opportunity cost rate; n is the number of years  

in this case, PV= 3,200; r=10%, and n=12

To get PV, substitute the values given above and compute as shown below:

PV  = 3,200*((1-(1/(1+0.10)12))/0.10)

PV= $21,760

With an opportunity cost of 10% compounded annually, Lisa will have to deposit $21,760 today if she wants to be receiving $3,200 at the end of each year for the next 12 years.
