Calculate the present value of the following annuity
streams:
a. $5,000 received each year for 7 years on the
last day of each year if your investments pay 7 percent compounded
annually.
b. $5,000 received each quarter for 7 years on the
last day of each quarter if your investments pay 7 percent
compounded quarterly.
c. $5,000 received each year for 7 years on the
first day of each year if your investments pay 7 percent compounded
annually.
d. $5,000 received each quarter for 7 years on the
first day of each quarter if your investments pay 7 percent
compounded quarterly.
(For all requirements, do not round intermediate
calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places. (e.g.,
32.16))

Task 3. Falling distance
When an object is falling because of gravity, the following formula can be used to determine
the distance the object falls in a specific time period:
d=(1/2)gt2
The variables in the formula are as follows: d is the distance in meters, g is 9.8, and t is the
amount of time, in seconds, that the object has been falling.
3.1. Create a method: FallingDistance
Parameters: t, object’s falling time (in seconds). t may or may not be an integer value!
Return value: the distance, in meters, that the object has fallen during that time interval
Calculations: Use Math.Pow() to calculated the square in the formula
3.2. Demonstrate the method by calling it from a loop that passes the values 1 through 20 as arguments, and displays each returned value.

On January 1, 2017, the Hardin Company budget committee has reached agreement on the following data for the 6 months ending June 30, 2017.
| Sales units: | First quarter 5,200; second quarter 6,700; third quarter 7,000 | |
| Ending raw materials inventory: | 40% of the next quarter’s production requirements | |
| Ending finished goods inventory: | 25% of the next quarter’s expected sales units | |
| Third-quarter production: | 7,380 units. |
The ending raw materials and finished goods inventories at December
31, 2016, follow the same percentage relationships to production
and sales that occur in 2017. 3 pounds of raw materials
are required to make each unit of finished goods. Raw materials
purchased are expected to cost $ 5 per pound.
Prepare a production budget by quarters for the 6-month period ended June 30, 2017.

A rock is dropped from the top of a tall tower. Half a second later another rock, twice as massive as the first, is dropped. Ignoring air resistance,
|
they strike the ground with the same kinetic energy |
||
|
they strike the ground more than half a second apart. |
||
|
the distance between the rocks increases while both are falling. |
||
|
the acceleration is greater for the more massive rock. |

According to the theory of liquidity preference, the opportunity cost of holding money rises when the interest rate rises, so people desire to hold more of it.
Select one:
True
False
In the long run, changes in government spending can affect prices, output, and unemployment rates if the spending programs alter the availability of natural resources, capital equipment or technology
Select one:
True
False
According to liquidity preference theory, the money supply curve is vertical because the Fed can dictate the quantity of money supplied by engaging in the purchase and sale of government bonds.
Select one:
True
False
An increase in the interest rate induces firms to borrow less, which will result in less investment spending and a decrease in the aggregate demand for goods and services.
Select one:
True
False
A lower price level leads to lower money demand, lower money demand leads to lower interest rates, and a lower interest rate increases the quantity of goods and services demanded
Select one:
True

Consider the hypothetical example of Dominion Island that has firms producing only two goods, gold and cotton, the proceeds of which it uses to purchase other goods and services from neighbouring islands through its banks. Assuming that all other required institutions in an economy are prevalent in this island, discuss the circular flow of income and spending in Dominion Island. No diagram is required.
