Hiram’s Lakeside is a popular restaurant located on Lake Washington in Seattle. The restaurant's owner wants to better understand his costs and hired a student intern to conduct an activity-based costing study. The intern identified three activities, completed the first-stage cost allocations and gathered the activity measure data shown below.
Activity Cost Pool
Activity Measure
Total Cost
Total Activity
Serving a party of diners
Number of parties served
$ 33,000

Number of diners served
$ 138,000

As a 25-year-old, I have set a goal of being a millionaire by the time I am 60. At the age of 25 I have already invested $10,000 in the stock market and historically the stock market has returned somewhere in the neighborhood of 10%. How much am I going to have to add in monthly contributions (payments) to my investment account in order to achieve my $1 million goal over 35 years (420 months)?
You tell your aunt that you have about $100,000 in the stock market earning about 11% per year and you are contributing $250 monthly to the investment account. Your aunt graciously suggests (offers) that when that investment account reaches $200,000, it can be paid to her and the loan will be considered paid in full.
How long is it going to take you to get that investment account up to $200,000 assuming the 11% return and the $250 contributions continue? What will be the balance of the loan at that time?
