Given:
Future value, F=60508.29
Monthly payment, A = 165
Compounding period = month
Number of periods, n = 12*12=144
interest per period = i [ to be found ]
We have the relationship
F=A((1+i)^n-1)/i
but there is no explicit formula for i for given F, A and n.
We need to solve a non-linear equation for the value of i, the monthly interest rate.
One of the ways is to solve it by fixed iteration, i.e.
1. using the given relation, express i in terms of other parameters.
2. select an initial value of i
3. evaluate i according the equation in step 1 until the value is stable.
Here we will use the relationship to express
i=((60508.29*i)/165+1)^(1/144)-1 [ notice that i is on both sides of = sign ]
using an initial value of i=0.01 (about 1% per month).
Successively, we get
i=((60508.29*0.01)/165+1)^(1/144)-1=0.01075571
i=((60508.29*0.01075571)/165+1)^(1/144)-1=0.011160681, similarly
i=0.0113685
i=0.0114728
i=0.0115246
i=0.0115502
i=0.0115628
i=0.0115690
i=0.0115720
Assuming the above has stablilized, and the APR is 12 time the above value, namely
Annual percentage rate = 0.01157205998210142*12=0.13886=13.89%
Answer:
The total amount of dividends paid over these three years is $8,600
Explanation:
The computation of the total amount of dividend for three years is shown below:
= Net income for first-year - net loss for the second year + net loss for the third year - ending retained earning balance
= $6,700 - $1,200 + $3,800 - $700
= $8,600
As we know,
The ending balance of retained earning = Beginning balance of retained earnings + net income - dividend paid
So, we apply the same formula to compute the dividend amount
Answer:
probably quality
Explanation:
if it's a bad quality I wouldn't buy and if its not animal cruelty free
Answer:
Both of these answers are correct.
Explanation:
Positive externality is when the benefits of economic activities to third parties exceeds its cost.
Activities that generate positive externality are
1. Education
2. Research and development
To encourage activities that have positive externality, government can subsidise such activities. Subsidies makes the activity cheaper and incentivise people to carry out such activities.
Market forces may lead to an underallocation of resources to producing the good. Therefore, the government might intervene in the allocation of the resources to increase efficiency.
I hope my answer helps you.
An argument that is not against specializing in a single good in the real world is that specialization in a single good makes dumping easier and more effective.
If a country specializes in a single good, less waste will be produced and it can be dumped easily at one place and can be used or recycled more easily than to dump several different kinds of goods as they will need different technologies and to segregate them will be a hard job to do.
Countries improve their production of the commodity in which they specialize. There are many benefits to consumers if a country does so as specialization lowers the opportunity cost of production, increasing global production and lowering prices. These reduced pricing and increased supply benefit consumers.
