Answer:
C) Credit card companies want to increase profits by promoting slower repayment, and actual customer repayments will be anchored by the smaller payment options
Explanation:
It is always a bad idea to only pay the minimum monthly payment on a credit card debt, since the APR charged is much higher than other personal loans. If someone only makes the minimum payment and continues to purchase goods or pay services, their balance will continue to grow.
Answer: B. your Debt to Credit ratio
Explanation:
Your debt to credit ratio is important to lenders because it shows whether you spend wisely when given debt.
Debt to credit is measured as the percentage of debt you have given your credit limit. If for instance you have a credit card limit of $50,000 and have debt of $10,000, your debt to credit ratio is:
= 10,000/50,000 * 100
= 20%
Generally the lower this ratio, the better the contribution to your credit score.
Answer:
The correct answer is option a.
Explanation:
Taxes levied on either buyers or sellers are equivalent. In both cases, the tax creates a wedge. This wedge is the difference between the price that the buyers have to pay and the price that the sellers receive.
The price that the buyers have to pay increases while the price that the sellers receive decreases. But this tax wedge does not depend on whom the tax is levied, it depends on the elasticity of demand and supply. So whether the tax is levied on buyers or sellers, the tax wedge will remain the same.
The tax burden will be shared between both buyers and sellers. So it is incorrect to say that the taxes levied on sellers and taxes levied on buyers are not equivalent.
