Response:

The correct choice is option "D": It is likely that the fees imposed by a bank will exceed the interest offered on a teenager’s savings account during their initial saving period.

Clarification:

Financial institutions often impose elevated fees on savings accounts for teenagers since they lack a credit history. This can make them appear to be riskier financially, particularly concerning overdrafts. Consequently, banks generally offer lower interest rates on these accounts along with certain limitations that one should consider before selecting a bank for account opening.

Response:

The interest rate is 5.7%          $21.204

Clarification:

I = Interest, T = time;;R is rate; P = principal

John earned this interest by July 1, 1993 as follows:

           I = = 72

Consequently, the total amount in John's account by July 1, 1993 would then be

= $300 + $72= $372

This indicates he utilized these funds at an interest rate of q.

On July 1, 1998, John’s total was $520, meaning the interest accumulated in these five years equals $520 - $372 = $148.

Using the simple interest formula: Interest = PRT/100

148 =

       = 14,800 =2600q

Thus, the rate is found to be 5.7%

The interest amount between July 1, 1993, and July 1, 1994 calculates as

    I =

          = $21.204

Response:

Clarification:

Last year's customer orders totaled 15000

Predicted orders for next year with a 15% rise = 15000 x 1.15 = 17250

Each customer order takes 1.5 hours to fulfill

Total time needed to satisfy customer orders = 17250 x 1.5 = 25875

Knowing that the standard work year comprises 2000 hours

Hence, the effective work year with a 2% capacity cushion

= Standard work year x ( 1 – Capacity cushion %/100)

= 2000 x 0.98  = 1960 hours

Workers required by manager

= Total time needed for orders / effective work year

= 25875 / 1960  = 13.20, rounded to 13

Thus, the manager will require 13 workers next year
