A 25-year-old engineer is opening an individual retirement account (IRA) at a bank. Her goal is to accumulate $1 million in the

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The minimum deposit will be of 3,081 and after 40 year it will get 1,000,000 dollars

Explanation:

We have to solve for the C of an annuity growing

$\frac{1-(1+g)^{n}\times (1+r)^{-n} }{r - g}$

g 0.05

r 0.06

C 3,081

n 40

$C \frac{1-(1+0.05)^{40}\times (1+0.06)^{40} }{0.06-0.05} = 1,000,000$

$C \times 324.57 = 1,000,000$

$C = 1,000,000/ 324.57 = 3,081$

Terms of a lease agreement and related facts were:

Feliz [49]

Answer:

1) January 1, 2018, asset leased

Dr Lease receivable 550,000

Cr Equipment 550,000

January 1, incremental costs associated with lease transaction

Dr Lease receivable 6,652

Cr Cash 6,652

January 1, 2018, first lease payment collected

Dr Cash 200,000

Cr Lease receivable 200,000

2) to calculate the effective rate we can use the present value of an annuity due formula

PV annuity due factor, 3 periods, ?% = present value of lease receivable / annual payment = $556,652 / $200,000 = 2.78326

Now we must use an annuity due table to determine a possible rate. In this case, the exact rate is 8%.

3) December 31, 2018, interest receivable on lease contract

Dr Interest receivable 28,532

Cr Interest revenue 28,532

interest receivable = ($556,652 / $200,000) x 8% = $28,532

true or false and then EXPLAIN why. Assume the economy produces five goods. If the prices of three of the goods increase, then t

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is False.

Explanation:

The prices of goods and services are fundamentally determined by their demand and supply. When they increase or decrease, it is because one of these two variables has led to a change. Specifically, an increase in prices occurs especially for three reasons.

Case 1: Supply is maintained and demand increases :

In this situation, companies continue to offer the same amount of a good or service, but we all buy more of them. This can happen for many reasons, among them, an increase in the population (there are more people and more traffic jams and more bikes are sold for circulation on the urban road), it becomes somewhat fashionable, our incomes increase, etc.

It can also happen that the price of a substitute rises (goods that give us exactly the same, such as orange soft drinks of one brand or another). If the price of brand X increases, the demand for brand Y will surely increase, since it will cover the same need at a lower price.

Case 2: Supply falls and demand remains :

A reduction in the supply of companies will make it more expensive. It can happen for a wide range of reasons: from the number of companies with these offers decreasing until the technology of some firms becomes outdated and only a few remain on the market. It may also happen that the price of inputs increases and that manufacturers cannot produce the same quantity as before due to this increase in price.

Case 3: Supply falls and demand increases :

In this case, a ‘mix’ of the phenomena that we have seen previously would take place. However, there are other more specific variables that cause prices to vary. For example, on occasion, governments artificially increase their monetary base. In other words, they use the strategy of manufacturing and issuing money, with more money in circulation than an economy really needs.

The supply of headphones is linear and upward sloping, and the demand for headphones is linear and downward sloping. Suppose the

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

8,000

Explanation:

Initially, the market is at equilibrium E1: P = P1; Q = Q1

Assume that the tax is imposed, the market will move to when Q = Q2; the price buyers pay is greater than P1, the price producers receive is less than P1.

We have: <em>Price buyers pay - Price producers receive = Tax</em>

As the tax decreases the equilibrium quantity by 700 headphoes

=> Q1 - Q2 = 700

=> Q2 = Q1 - 700

=> Q1 + Q2 = Q1 + Q1 - 700 = 2Q1 - 700

Before tax:

+) the producer surplus (PS) is equal to the area formed by supply curve S, price line P1 and the vertical axis

=> PS1 = Area of BE1P1

+) the consumer surplus (CS) is equal to the area formed by demand D, price line P1 and the vertical axis

=> CS1 = Area of AE1P1

=> The wellness before tax = CS1 + PS1 = Area of AE1B

After tax:

+) the producer surplus (PS) is equal to the area formed by supply curve S, price line (Price producers receives) and the vertical axis

=> PS2 = Area of BDE

+) the consumer surplus (CS) is equal to the area formed by demand D, price line (price buyers pay) and the vertical axis

=> CS2 = Area of ACF

+) The Tax revenue = Tax * Q2 = (Price buyers pay - Price producers receive) * Q2 = CD * DE = Area of CFDE

=> The wellness after tax = PS2 + CS2 + Tax Revenue = BDE + ACF + CDEF

=> Deadweight loss = Wellness before Tax - Wellness after tax = Area of EFE1 = 2,800

The tax decreases consumer surplus by $4,000.00, and it decreases producer surplus by $6,800.00

So that:

+) CS1 - CS2 = 4,000

=> Area of AE1P1 - Area of ACF = Area of CFE1P1 = 4,000

+) PS1 - PS2 = 6,800

=> Area of BE1P1 - Area of BDE = 6,800

=> Area of EDP1E1 = 6,800

=> Area of CFE1P1 + Area of EDP1E1 = 4,000 + 6,800

=> Area of CFE1ED = 10,800

Area of CDEF + Area of EFE1 = Area of CFE1ED = 10,800

=> Area of CDEF + 2,800 = 10,800

=> Area of CDEF = 8,000

=> Tax revenue = 8,000
