Certificate of deposit typical interest rate

2 answers:

7 0

Certificate of deposit typical interest rates are usually higher than savings account interest rates. CD's (certificate of deposits) are bound to terms regarding the length someone has to keep their funds in the CD. Unlike a savings account where a person can withdraw their money at just about anytime, a CD has a set time when someone can withdraw money without penalty.

This question is too broad because there are many factors that determine the interest rate of a CD, such as the amount you are investing, the length of time, and the banking institution.

You have just started a new job and plan to save $5,250 per year for 35 years until you retire. You will make your first deposit

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

FV= $1,260,205.98

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Annual deposit= $5,250

Number of years= 35 years

Annual interest rate= 0.0947

To calculate the final value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {5,250*[(1.0947^35)-1] / 0.0947

FV= $1,260,205.98

Suppose that a worker in Freedonia can produce either 6 units of corn or 2 units of wheat per year, and a worker in Sylvania can

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

a. 30 units of corn and 30 units of wheat.

Explanation:

In a two-product, two-country world, international trade leads to specialization. Each country will produce the product in which it has comparative advantage. In this case, Freedonia will produce only corn and Sylvania will produce only wheat. With all constant, the country will consume the same amount of that product, but the surplus will exchange it for the other product. Freedonia will use all its workers to produce corn, in a year they will produce 6*10= 60 units of corn. Sylvania will use the 10 workers to produce wheat, in a year they will produce 6*10=60 units of wheat.

But, Freedonia will consume the same amount of corn (30 units). Then, Freedonia have 30 available units to trade with Sylvania. And the same for Sylvania, they will consume the same amount of wheat (30 units) and so Sylvania will have 30 available units of wheat to trade with Freedonia.

If the price, for both goods, is the same, Ricardo´s theory predicts that total consumption in both countries will increase, then consumer welfare will increase. Freedonia will consume the same 30 units of corn, but the other 30 will be exchanged by 30 units of wheat. Consumers are better and happier. Freedonia will consume 20 units more of wheat than before without sacrifying units of corn.

Assume that a company makes only three products: Product A, Product B, and Product C. Currently, the company uses a conventional

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Company A

Using the activity-based costing approach, the percent of the company’s total Material Handling activity cost that would be allocated to Product B is:

d. 33%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Product A Product B Product C Total Use

Number of units produced 1,000 units 7,000 units 2,000 units 10,000

Direct labor hours per unit 2 hours 2 hours 2 hours 6

Number of setups 30 setups 50 setups 20 setups 100

Number of material moves 600 moves 400 moves 200 moves 1,200

Number of products 1 product 1 product 1 product 3

Product B usage of Material Handling Activity Cost:

Allocation Basis = Number of material moves

Product B material moves = 400

Total material moves = 1,200

Therefore, the percentage of Product B usage of material handling activity is:

= 400/1,200 * 100

= 33%

C&A sells T-shirts for $20 that cost $5 to produce. The annual holding cost percentage is 10% and the T-shirts turn 25 times

ad-work [718]

Answer:

$0.02

Explanation:

C&A sells T-shirts for $20 that cost $5 to produce

The annual holfing cost percentage is 10%

The T-shirts turn 25 times a year

The first step is to calculate the holding cost

= $5 × 10/100

= $5 × 0.1

= 0.5

Therefore, since the T-shirts turn over 25 times a year then, the holding cost that C&A incurs for each T-shirts can be calculated as follows

= 0.5/25 times

= $0.02

Hence C&A incur a holding cost of $0.02 for each T-shirts

Suppose you operate a coal power plant and is considering upgrading the flue gas desulphurisation (FGD) facility (or "scrubbers"

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The present value is $19,039

Explanation:

The computation of the Present value is shown below

= Present value of all yearly cash inflows after applying discount factor

The discount factor should be computed by

= 1 ÷ (1 + rate) ^ years

where,

rate is 2%

Year = 0,1,2,3,4 and so on

Discount Factor:

For Year 1 = 1 ÷ 1.02^1 = 0.9804

For Year 2 = 1 ÷ 1.02^2 = 0.9612

For Year 3 = 1 ÷ 1.02^3 = 0.9423

For Year 4 = 1 ÷ 1.02^4 = 0.9238

So, the calculation of a Present value of all yearly cash inflows are shown below

= (Year 1 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 1) + (Year 2 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 2) + (Year 3 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 3) + (Year 4 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 4)

= ($5,000 × 0.9804) + ($5,000 × 0.9612) + ($5,000 × 0.9423) + ($5,000 × 0.9238)

= $4,901.96 + $4,805.84 + $4,711.61 + $4,619.23

= $19,039

We take the first four digits of the discount factor.
