The monthly savings considering the inflation will be for 35,089.94 dollarsper month

Explanation:

the cost of the equipment will be

$Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount$

Principal1,500,000.00

time4 years

inflation 0.05000

$1500000 \: (1+ 0.05)^{4} = Amount$

Amount1,823,259.38

This is the future value we need to reach in order to pay the medical equipment at once.

We will calculate the couta of a future value of 1,823,259.38 with 48 monthly payment at 4% annual interest rate:

$FV \div \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1}{rate} = C\\$

FV $1,823,259.38

time48

rate0.003333333

$1,823,259.38 \div \frac{(1+0.003333)^{48} -1}{0.003333} = C\\$

C $ 35,089.942

Answer from: Quest

being born in poverty would limit the people's chances, opportunities and benefits.

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
