Use the ordinary interest method, 360 days, to solve the following word problem. Round to the nearest cent when necessary. Richie Powers is the owner of American Eagle Boats, a manufacturer of custom pleasure boats. Because of the economic recession and slow boat sales recently, American Eagle has begun accepting promissory notes from its dealers to help finance large orders. This morning American Eagle accepted a 90 day, 8.6% promissory note for $800,000 from one of its sales dealers. You are a manager for a bank, and Richie is one of your clients. Your bank's discount rate is currently 13%. Richie's goal is to discount the note as soon as possible, but not until the proceeds are at least equal to the face value of the note, $800,000. (a) As his banker, Richie has asked you to "run the numbers" at ten day intervals starting with day 20 and advise him as to when he can discount the note and still receive his $800,000. Find the bank discount (in $) for days 20, 30, and 40, and indicate for each discount whether it is too high or whether it is low enough for Richie to discount the note and still receive his $800,000. Day 20: $ ---Select--- Day 30: 2$ ---Select--- Day 40: 2$ V --Select-- too high (b) (Challenge) Calculate the e low enough e should be discounted to meet Richie's goal. Day
Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.
Speed, Time, and Distance
Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 miles away.
Profit and Loss
The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.
Units and Measurements
Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experiments to set up the devices.
