C) The answers are different because if the interest is left untouched, it makes the principal amount higher each year, giving more money after 10 years. Compounded interest allows for more money that simple interest would. 2. A) If the individual retires at the age of 65, having started the program at age 40, there would be $219,318 in the account. $3,000 x (8% in 25 years) 3000 x 73.106 = $219,318 B) If
As of 2010, with the total population of the United States at 310.2 million individuals, White Non-Hispanic Americans are 64.7 percent of the United States population. While the second largest racial group in America is Hispanics with 16 percent of the population. According to the trends, the population is estimated to be at about 439 million in the year 2050. That's quite a rise in the population in the next 40 years (129 million) and who knows the impact it will have on our economy and job availability. It is also estimated that White Non-Hispanic Americans will be less than half the population at this point with 46.3 percent of the population being that race.
The Pentium chip which is the most common 1993 chip from Intel contained 3,100,000 transistors. The technology behind transistors over the years has changed, they are made smaller so that microprocessors could be fitted with more, which gives faster processors. The co-founder of Intel, Gordon E. Moore in 1965 described how the amount of transistors for integrated circuits which had doubled every year, Moore predicted that for at least the next ten years the trend would continue. Now more than forty five years later this prediction is still somewhat correct. Moore stated that this could continue another decade or two, but would eventually reach its limits at atomic levels of miniaturization.
Discounting the amount of waste that is recycled still leaves a difference of more than double in the waste creation between the years, but the exponential growth in the recycling amount provides information into a changing attitude. Although waste and recycling are only a subset of the ecological issues faced across the globe today, this information provides insight into the mindset and changing values relative to the environment. The improvement in the recycling rate didn’t occur over a year or even in the last decade, but has steadily climbed over the last 40 years. We can expect to find similar adoption rates across all environmental solutions, as it generally takes time for the information and education to spread, and additional time for it to be broadly accepted. As such, the most important question we can look to answer is not, whether one solution is better than another, but if we applied any and all possible solutions to the issues, is there time to fix the problems we have caused.
Its average sales per day were $ 668.49 during 2008 and its average collection period was 99 days. This represented an improvement from the average collection period of 105 days in 2005. 3. SciTronics apparently needed $ 29,000 of inventory at year-end 2008 to support its operations during 2008. Its activity during 2008 as measured by the cost of goods sold was $ 74,000.
At this time people wanted to spend their money instead of save it for hard times. Society’s hourly pay rate nearly double and tripled during this era. War factories transitioned from making war materials to making civilian supplies, which lead to the boost in our economy at the time. Today, effects of the Baby Boom have many factors that come into play that affect our economy. According to National Academy of Social Insurance “social security faces a financial challenge from the impending retirement of the largest generation in American history, the 76 million persons born in the “baby boom” years, from 1946 through 1964.
Economy of Immigration By Tiffany Gilliam Macroeconomics Mr. Toney Introduction United states immigration and nearly tripled since the 1990’s. Although the countries population has more than doubles, the total number of immigrants including illegal immigrants is about the same as or less than the number then. The foreign-born population of the United States concludes 8.5 percent of the total population, which is drastically lower than the percentage--13 percent or higher--during the period from 1860 to 1930. Immigrants fail to increase the rate of unemployment among Native Americans, even among minority, female, and low-skill workers. The effect of immigration on wages is negative for some of these special groups and positive for others.
Recently, Good Night’s performance has slightly improved. The fiscal 2012 revenues increased to $389,150, a slight improvement compared to recent years but still not comparable to pre-2008 levels. 2012 marked the first time in 5 years that Good Night has made a profit but revenues are still predicted to remain flat for the next couple of years. This is not a good sign considering that competition keeps increasing and Good Night Motel’s rates are higher than its competitors. We must now decide if we should accept George Alward’s request to allow him to stay at the hotel for half the price of the regular rate.
Financial ratios, especially when listed for multiple years in a row, can really expand what you are seeing on the financial statements with just a glance. The asset turnover ratio was decreasing towards 1 from 2000-04. As Krispy Kreme expanded assets were likely increasing. The fact that the ratio pushed from 2.1 to 1.01 in just four years shows those sales were not increasing proportionately with all the growth the company was experiencing. Exhibit 7: By a raising current ratio, we can see that Krispy Kreme is much more able to pay debt within the next year.
Despite year on year fluctuations, Walsall tPCT is still on track to meet the 2010 target. How Walsall Compares Cancer mortality in the under 75s has fallen slightly faster in the West Midlands as a whole and in England than in Walsall. This means that the inequalities gap between Walsall and some other West Midlands districts and the national average has widened. In 2003-05 the Walsall rate remained 10% higher than the England average rate (14% higher for men and 4% higher for women). Eliminating the inequalities gap would save an additional 33 lives per year in
