Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

By the rule of 70, if one invests $3000 in a bank account and earns 2% real annual return on average, then it would take 35 years (702) until it is worth $6,000. This $6,000 would take another 35 years (702) to double up to $12,000 by the rule of 70. Therefore, $3,000 would take 70 years (35+35)  until it was worth $12,000.

Explanation of Solution

By the rule of 70, if one invests $3000 in mutual and earns 7% real annual return on average, then it would take 10 years (707) until it is worth $6,000. This $6000 would take another 10 years (707) to double up to $12,000 by the rule of 70. Therefore, $3000 would take 20 years (10+10)  until it was worth $12,000.

By the rule of 70, if one invests $3000 together in bank and mutual fund and earns 5% real annual return on average, then it would take 14 years (705) until it is worth $6,000. This $6000 would take another 14 years (705) to double up to $12,000 by the rule of 70 Therefore, $3000 would take 28 years (14+14)  until it was worth $12,000.

HW Ch5 Calculate the daily total revenue when the market price is $180, $160, $140, $120, $100, $80, $60, and $40 per bippitybop. Then, use the green point (triangle symbol) to plot the daily total revenue against quantity corresponding to these market prices on the following graph. 2 @ 3840 3520 3200+ 2880 2560+ 2240 TOTAL REVENUE (Dollars) 1920 1600 1280 960 + 640+ 0 0 8 16 24 32 40 48 56 64 72 80 QUANTITY (Bippitybops per day) Total Revenue ? According to the midpoints formula, the price elasticity of demand between points A and B on the initial graph is approximately . Suppose the price of bippitybops is currently $60 per bippitybop, shown as point A on the initial graph. Because the price elasticity of demand between points A and B is , a $20-per-bippitybop decrease in price will lead to MacBook Air in total revenue per day.
