You have $12,949.72 in a brokerage account, and you plan to deposit an additional $4,000 at the end of every future year until your account totals $220.000. You expect to earn 12% annually on the account. How many years will it take to reach your goal? Round your answer to the nearest whole number

years

15

Explanation:

Given the following :

Interest per annum (I / YR) = (12 / 1) = 12

Future value (FV) = $220,000

Present Value (PV) = $12,949.72

Payment per period (PMT) = $4000

Using the online financial calculator :

The number of periods to attain a future value of $220,000 with a present value of $12,949.72 and periodic payment of $4000 at an interest rate of 12% per annum is 15.

Therefore, the number of periods is 15.

Inputting the above parameters into the online financial calculator gives a period (N) value of 15.

ans.

heterothermic organisms include those organisms that can switch between homeothermic (having body temperature higher than environment) and poikilothermic (having variation in internal body temperature) strategies.

some migratory birds show heterothermy as they decrease their metabolic rate during cold nights to keep their body temperature low. drop in metabolic rate allows increase in production efficiency of birds that reduces the internal body temperature to make it equal to external cold temperature during cold nights.

thus, the correct answer is 'birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.'

correct, but each time you dont pay the price of the penalty can increase.
