Answer: $338712.36
Explanation:
Given the following :
APR = 6.35% = 0.0635
Monthly payment = $1800
Cost of home = $340,000
Period (t) = 420
Monthly rate = 0.0635 / 12
Amount paid on loan = PV of monthly payment :
PMT(1 - (1 / (1 + r)^t)) / r
1800[(1 - (1 / (1 + 0.0635/12)^420)) / r]
1800[ (1 - (1 /9.1764488)) / r
1800[ 1 - 0.1089746] / (0.0635 / 12)
1800 [168.38275]
= $303088.95
Hence, amount yet to pay :
$340,000 - $303088.95 = $36911.05
Hence, balloon payment :
36911.05( 1 + r)^t
36911.05(1 + 0.0635/12)^420
36911.05(1 + 0.0052916)^420
36911.05(1.0052916)^420
36911.05 × 9.1764488
= $338712.36
Answer: Generally, when trying to solve a complex accounting problem in which there are obstacles and little knowledge about the subject, the most advisable thing is to work from a conceptual framework which serves as a guide to find a reasonable answer to the problem in question. In this case Marla was clearly working with a conceptual framework, and instead Jacob was not.

Answer:
a. x3+x4<=1
Explanation:
We need a multiple choice constraint. Constraint x3+x4 <= 1 states that only one of the 2 options of landlord or contractor working on kitchen tiles can be used. (Assuming x3, x4 are binary variables)
Hence if x3 = 1, x4 is 0, and if x4=1, x3 becomes 0. Please note, there is no constraint in question specifying that kitchen tile has to be done. Hence, both x3 and x4 can be 0 depending on cost optimization, and x3+x4<=1 will still hold correct.
Answer: 30.1%
Explanation:
The unemployment rate includes those who do not have employment but are actively looking for employment not those who do not have a job and are not looking.
The rate is also based on the Labor force which is the portion of the population that is <u>able</u> and <u>willing</u> to work. Retirees are not included in this measure. Those who are not looking are not willing.
Labor Force = 50 full-time + 15 part-time + 28 unemployed
= 93 people
Unemployment rate:
= 28 / 93 * 100
= 30.1%
