Answer: $3,580.30 (converted to 2decimal places).
Antwone need to deposit " $3,580.30008” into the account each semi-annual period in order to take his vacation in 2 years
Explanation:
By using compound interest formula below to solve the question
A = p ( 1 + r/n)^nt
A = amount (future value)= $3,800
P = principal (present value) ?
r = annual nominal rate = 3%= 0.03
n = today number of compounding years = semiannually (2 interest payments period in a year) = 2
t = time in years =2
3,800 = p ( 1 + 0.03/2)^2(2)
3,800 = p ( 1 + 0.015 )^4
3,800 = p ( 1.015 ) ^4
3,800 = 1.06136355 p
divide both sides by 1.06136355
p = 3,800 / 1.06136355
p = $3,580.30008
≈$3,580.30 ( rounded off to 2d.p)
Elected governance officials and appointed governance officials
Answer:
The correct option is (b)
Explanation:
Given:
Monthly payment for 6 months = $30 per month
Time period = 6 month (6 periods)
Monthly interest rate = 2%
In order to compute borrowed amount, present value of these payments need to be computed which is an annuity as same amount of $30 is paid.
Checking PVIFA table for 2%, 6 periods, annuity factor is 5.6014.
Borrowed amount = Monthly payment × PVIFA(2%,6)
= 30 × 5.6014
= $168.042
Borrowed amount is $168.042 or $168.22 approximately (difference in value due to annuity factor being rounded off)
Answer:
b. The competitive pressures associated with rivalry among competing sellers in the industry for buyer patronage.
Explanation:
The Porter’s five forces of competition is a framework developed by Michael E. Porter in 1979, it is used to measure and analyze an organization's competitiveness in a business environment.
The Porter's five forces of competition framework are:
1. The bargaining power of suppliers.
2. The bargaining power of customers.
3. Threat posed by substitute products.
4. Threats posed by new entrants.
5. Threats posed by existing rivals in the industry.
The most powerful of the five competitive forces is usually the competitive pressures associated with rivalry among competing sellers in the industry for buyer patronage. When the amount of competitors (sellers), as well as the quantity of goods and services they provide are large, the lesser their competitive strengths or advantage in the market because the customers have a large pool of finished goods and services to choose from and vice-versa.
