Q1 · In 2018, Gretal earned $32 000
1 (a) In 2018, Gretal earned $32 000. (i) She paid tax of 24% on these earnings. Work out the amount she paid in tax in 2018. $ ................................................ [2] (ii) In 2019, Gretal’s earnings increased by 7%. Work out her earnings in 2019. $ ................................................ [2] (b) Gretal invests $5000 at a rate of 2% per year compound interest. Calculate the value of her investment at the end of 3 years. $ ................................................ [2] (c) One month, Gretal spent a total of $360 on presents. She spent 15 of this total on presents for her parents. She spent 23 of the remaining money on presents for her friends. She spent the rest of the money on presents for her sisters. Calculate the percentage of the $360 that she spent on presents for her sisters. ............................................. % [4] (d) Arjun earned $36 515 in 2019. This was an increase of 9% on his earnings in 2018. Work out his earnings in 2018. $ ................................................ [2] (e) Arjun and Gretal each pay rent. In 2018, the ratio of the amount each paid in rent was Arjun : Gretal = 5 : 7. In 2019, the ratio of the amount each paid in rent was Arjun : Gretal = 9 : 13. Arjun paid the same amount of rent in both 2018 and 2019. Gretal paid $290 more rent in 2019 than she did in 2018. Work out the amount Arjun paid in rent in 2019. $ ................................................ [4]
