You earned wages of $46,500, received $790 in interest from a savings account, and contributed $1100 to a tax-deferred savings plan. You are entitled to a personal exemption of $3800 and a standard deduction of $5950. The interest on your home mortgage was $7300, you contributed $350 to charity, and paid $1395 in state taxes. Find your taxable income. (Remember to base your taxable income on the greater of the standard deduction or an itemized deduction.) AGI = 46,500 + 790 1100 = 46190 taxable = 46190 3800 7300 350 1395 = 33,660 11. You borrow $2000 from a friend and promise to pay back $3000 in two years.

14. Suppose that you decide to save money for a down payment to buy a home in five years by depositing $6000 in an account that pays 6.5% compounded monthly. How much will you have as a down payment after five years? A = P 1+ r nt = 6000 1+ 0.065 = 8296.90 12(5) 15. Suppose that instead of making a lump-sum deposit to save for a down payment, you deposit $100 at the end of each month in an annuity that pays 6.5% compounded monthly. How much will you have as a down payment after five years? P 1+ r nt 1 A = r 100 1+ 0.065 = 0.065 = 7,067.40 12(5) 1 16. Suppose that you want to retire in 40 years. How much should you deposit at the end of each month in an IRA that pays 6.25% compounded monthly in order to have $1,500,000 in 40 years? Round up to the next dollar.

17. Convert 807mm to hm. Move decimal 5 places to the left 0.00807 hm 18. Given 1 inch =2.54 centimeters, use dimensional analysis to convert 635 centimeters to inches. 1in 635cm 2.54cm = 635 2.54 = 250in 19. If 1 mile 1.6 kilometers, express 80 miles per hour in kilometers per hour. 80 m hr 1.6km 1m = 128 km hr 20. Australia has a population of 20,090,400 and an area of 2,9667,908 square miles. Find Australia s population density to the nearest tenth. DIDN T GRADE DUE TO TYPO 21. Given 1 acre 0.4 hectare, use dimensional analysis to find the area of a property measured at 18 hectares. 1acre 18hectares 0.4hectares = 45acres
22. A swimming pool has a volume of 10,000 cubic feet. Given that 1 cubic foot has a capacity of about 7.48 gallons, how many gallons of water does the pool hold? 10,000cu ft 7.48gallons = 74,800gallons 1cu ft 23. Convert 137g to kg. Move decimal 3 plces to left 0.137 kg 24. Convert 176 F to Celsius. C = 5 ( 9 F 32) ( ) = 5 176 32 9 = 80 25. Comfortable room temperature is approximately a. 70 C b. 50 C c. 30 C d. 20 C From above, we know that 70C is close to 176F. 50C is halfway to boiling point of water. Solving the formula F = 9 for 30C and 20C, we see 30C = 86F and 20C=68F, so 5 C + 32 d is the correct answer.
