A deposit of $90 is placed into a college fund at the beginning of every week for 5 years. The fund earns 3% annual interest, co
laila [671]

Answer:

$25,249.50

Explanation:

Deposit at the beginning of every 6 month (A) = 90

Time period (t) = 5

n = 52

Rate (r) = 3% = 0.03

So, the net amount in the account right after the last deposit is as follows:

= A * [(1+r/n)^(n*t) - 1 / r/n] * (1 + r/n)

= 90 * [(1+0.03/52)^(52*5) - 1 / 0.03/52] * (1 + 0.03/52)

= 90 * [(1.16178399147 - 1 / 0.000577] * (1+0.000577)

= 90 * 280.3882 * 1.000577

= 25249.498559226

= $25,249.50

On March 12, Medical Waste Services provides services on account to Grace Hospital for $9,100, terms 2/10, n/30. Grace does not
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

March 12    Medical waste expense                  9100 Dr

                            Accounts Payable                         9100 Cr

March 31    Accounts Payable                            9100 Dr

                            Cash                                                9100 Cr

Explanation:

To record the services we received and have not paid for, we simply charge the service received as an expense and debit it and credit the Accounts Payable against it.

We use the relevant name for the service that we have created in our books. In this case, I have used the name Medical waste Expense.

The terms 2/10 n/30 means a 2% discount can be enjoyed by Grace Hospital if it pays the creditor within 10 days of receiving the service while n/30 means that the payment is to be made within the next 30 days from the day when service is received.

Grace doesn't pay for the  services in the first 10 days there by missing on the discount and the whole amount is paid on 31 march. We debit the Accounts Payable as the liability has been settled and credit the cash through which payment is made.

Assume that at the current market price of $5 per unit of a good, you are willing and able to buy 20 units. Last year at a price
sammy [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is the demand has increased.

Explanation:

At the market price of $5/unit, the quantity demanded is 20 units.  

Last year at the price level of $4, the quantity demanded was 20 units.  

We see that even though the price has increased the quantity demanded is the same. This indicates that the demand has increased.  

When there is an increase in the demand for a commodity, the demand curve moves to the right. This upward or rightward shift in the demand curve will cause the price of the commodity to increase. Though the quantity demanded will be the same.
