Assume that your aunt sold her house on December 31, and to help close the sale she took a second mortgage in the amount of $10,

000 as part of the payment. The mortgage has a quoted (or nominal) interest rate of 12%; it calls for payments every 6 months, beginning on June 30, and is to be amortized over 10 years. Now, 1 year later, your aunt must inform the IRS and the person who bought the house about the interest that was included in the two payments made during the year. (This interest will be income to your aunt and a deduction to the buyer of the house.) To the closest cent, what is the total amount of interest that was paid during the first year

Answer:

Total interest paid during the first year: $1,183.69

Explanation:

First, we need to know the installment amount:

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

PV 10,000.00

time 20

rate 0.06

10000 \div \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-20} }{0.06} = C\\

C  $ 871.85

now we calcualte the interest and amortization made in the first payment:

interest: 10,000 x 6% = 600

Amortization 871,85 - 600 = 271,85

Principal at second installment:

10,000 - 271.85 = 9,728.15

Interest 9,728.15 x 0.06 = 583,69

Total interest: 583,69 + 600 = 1.183,69

OPTIONS:

A. establish a Chinese Wall between the research personnel and the sales personnel

B. register both the research personnel and the sales personnel in each State where the IA's services are offered

C. cross-train the research personnel and the sales personnel in each other's functions so that in the event of a confidentiality breach, one can take over the functions of the other

D. establish two separate IA firms registered with the State with one only having research personnel and the other only having sales personnel

Answer: A. establish a Chinese Wall between the research personnel and the sales personnel

Explanation: In a bid to maintain confidentiality and avoid leakage of vital information, there must be a barrier between the research personnels who makes findings on investment opportunities and packages for client needs and the sales personnels. This is because, research and investment informations are treated as classified and leakage could lead to bias, whereby some consumers will get the information and make moves before other consumers are informed via official release by the firm.

QS 19-10 Computing contribution margin LO P2 D’Souza Company sold 6,000 units of its product at a price of $88.00 per unit. Tota
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

$218,400

Explanation:

The computation of contribution margin is here below:-

                                               Units       Cost per unit         Total

Sales                                     6,000        $88                       $528,000

Less:

Variable production cost     6,000        $40.8                  $244,800

Variable selling and

administrative costs        6,000         $10.8                   $64,800

Contribution margin                                                           $218,400

Therefore the we multiplied the sale unit with cost per unit, in the similar way we multiplied the Variable production cost unit with cost per unit and Variable selling and administrative costs with cost per unit to reach the contribution margin.

Suppose that France and Denmark both produce fish and stained glass. France's opportunity cost of producing a pane of stained gl
andriy [413]

Answer:

France has a comparative advantage in the production of stained glass.

Denmark has a comparative advantage in production of fish.

France will gain from trade as long as it gets more than 3 pounds of fish for each pane of stained glass.

Denmark can gain from trade if it gets more than 0.09 pane of stained glass for each pound of fish it exports.

4 pounds of fish per pane of stained glass.

7 pounds of fish per pane of stained glass.

Explanation:

France and Denmark both produce fish and stained glass.

France's opportunity cost of producing a pane of stained glass

= 3 pounds of fish

Denmark's opportunity cost of producing a pane of stained glass

= 11 pounds of fish

France's opportunity cost of producing a pound of fish

= \frac{1}{3}

= 0.33 pane of stained glass

Denmark's opportunity cost of producing a pound of fish

= \frac{1}{11}

= 0.09 pane of stained glass

France has a lower opportunity cost of producing stained glass so we can say it has a comparative advantage in the production of stained glass. While Denmark has a comparative advantage in the production of fish.

If both countries start to trade with each other, France will gain from trade as long as it gets more than 3 pounds of fish for each pane of stained glass.

While Denmark can gain from trade if it gets more than 0.09 pane of stained glass for each pound of fish it exports.

Both the countries will gain from trade if the trade price lies between their opportunity cost. both countries will gain from trade if the price is 4 pounds of fish per pane of stained glass or 7 pounds of fish per pane of stained glass.
