Answer:
$8,400
Explanation:
total commission = $300,000 x 8% = $24,000
50% co-brokerage split = $24,000 x 50% = $12,000
Walt's commission = $12,000 x 70% = $8,400
the 70% commission split between Walt and his broker means that Walt keeps 70% of the commission and the broker keeps 30%.
total commission is split between the two firms because the Walt's listing was sold by another firm.
Answer:
Monthly Payment is $1602.37
Effective interest rate is 5.33%
Explanation:
a.
The monthly payment made includes the interest and principal payment as well.
Monthly payment can be calculated using following formula
Monthly Payment = [Present value of loan x r] / [{1 - (1 + r)-n}]
Monthly Payment = [$84,500 x (0.052/12)] / [1 - (1 + 0.052/12)-60]
Monthly Payment = [$366.17 / 0.2285]
Monthly Payment = $1,602.37
b.
The Effective interest rate is the actual interest rate that are being charged on loan after incorporating the compounding effect.
Use following formula to calculate the effective Annual rate
EAR = [1 + (i/n)]^n - 1
EAR = [ 1 + (5.2% / 12]^12 - 1
EAR = [1.0043]^12 - 1
EAR = 1.0533 - 1
EAR = 0.0533
EAR = 5.33%
