Janice Davidson, single mother of two in her late 20s, manages an in-store boutique at Lacy's Department Store. She earns $60,000 a year before taxes (her gross income) and pays 20% in taxes. Janice's fixed monthly living expenses are $2,400 with another $1,600 in variable/discretionary living expenses. Janice has $13,000 in emergency savings. Janice has an employer-paid disability benefit through the department store where she works. Lacy's provides its employees a long-term disability insurance benefit that pays 60% of an employee's gross salary up to a maximum of $5,000 a month. Would a policy that pays 40% of her gross salary provide enough income to cover Janice's fixed monthly expenses if she became disabled and couldn't work? If yes, how much could she set aside each month after fixed expenses are paid? If no, how much of a shortfall would she have and how could she cover it?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

No, her savings

Step-by-step explanation:

Her monthly income is 5000 (60000/12). She pays $1000 per month (5000x.2) in taxes and has another 2400 in fixed expenses. So her monthly fixed expenses (don’t include 1600 variable) are 3400 (1000+2400). A disability benefit of 40% would pay $2000 per month (5000 x .4). S0 she would be short 1400 per month (2000-3400). She would have to use her $13,000 in savings to make up the difference.

hopefully I interpreted the questions correctly!

Answer 2

a) 40% policy will not cover Janice's fixed monthly expenses.

b) Janice's shortfall is $400.

c) For the shortfall, Janice may resort to emergency funds.

What is a fixed monthly living expense?

A fixed monthly living expense is an expense that does not change from period to period.

Examples of fixed monthly living expenses include:

Mortgage paymentsUtility billsLoan payments.

Data and Calculations:

Annual gross income = $60,000

Annual tax liability = 20% or $12,000 ($60,000 x 20%)

Fixed monthly living expenses = $2,400

Annual fixed living expenses = $28,800 ($2,400 x 12)

Variable discretionary living expenses = $19,200 ($1,600 x 12)

Emergency savings = $13,000

A policy that pays 40% as the disability allowance of gross salary will pay $2,000 ($5,000 x 40%).

Answers

Answer:

The nth term is [tex]a_n = 4 - 5(n-1)[/tex]

The 60th term of the sequence is -291.

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence:

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same, and it is called common difference.

The nth term is given by:

[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d[/tex]

In which [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term and d is the common difference.

4,-1,-6

The common difference is:

[tex]d = -1 - 4 = -5[/tex]

First term [tex]a_1 = 4[/tex]

So

[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d[/tex]

[tex]a_n = 4 - 5(n-1)[/tex]

60th term:

[tex]a_{60}[/tex]. Si

[tex]a_{60} = 4 - 5(60-1) = -291[/tex]

The 60th term of the sequence is -291.

Answers

Answer:

A. Translation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Preimage

[tex]J = (-6,9)[/tex]

[tex]K = (-6,4)[/tex]

[tex]L = (-3,4)[/tex]

Image

[tex]J' = (2,9)[/tex]

[tex]K' = (2,4)[/tex]

[tex]L' = (5,4)[/tex]

Required

Which transformation occurred

The transformation that occurs is translation because each of the preimage were translated or shifter right by 8 units.

The rule applied here is:

[tex](x,y)=>(x+8,y)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]J = (-6,9)[/tex] [tex]==> (-6+8,9) = (2,9)[/tex]

[tex]K = (-6,4)[/tex] [tex]==> (-6+8,4) = (2,4)[/tex]

[tex]L = (-3,4)[/tex] [tex]==> (-3+8,4) = (5,4)[/tex]

Hence, the transformation is (a) Translation

Squares with sides of length x are cut out of each corner of a square piece of cardboard with sides of length /. Find the volume of the largest open box that can be formed in this way.

Answers

Answer:

Box dimensions:

L = 3 ft

D = 6 ft

H = 1 ft

Volume  V = 18 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Each side of the future box is

L = 5 - 2*x     D = 8 - 2*x  

height of the box is   x

Then the volume of the box as function of x is:

V(x) =  ( 5 - 2*x ) * ( 8  - 2*x ) * x

V(x) = ( 40 - 10*x - 16*x + 4*x² ) * x

V(x) = 40*x - 26*x² + 4*x³

Tacking derivatives on both sides of the equation:

V´(x) = 40 - 52*x + 12x²     or     V´(x) = 20 - 26*x + 6*x²

If V´(x) = 0

6*x² - 26*x + 20  = 0

Solving for x

x₁,₂  = (-b ± √ b² - 4*a*c  ] /2*a

x₁,₂  = ( 26  ±  √ 676  - 480  ) / 12

x₁,₂  =  (26 ± 14 )/ 12

x₁  = 1

x₂ = 3,33        ( we dismiss this solution since is not feasible according to cardboard dimensions )

Then the sides of the box are:

L = 5 -2*x      L  =  5 - 2*1     L = 3 ft

D = 8 - 2*x    D  = 8 - 2*1     D = 6 ft

H = x = 1 ft

And the volume is    V = 6*3*1 = 18 ft³
