Answer:

Option A,4 months

Explanation:

Closing fees =1.5% of the mortgage

mortgage amount is $150,000

closing fees =$150,000*1.5%=$2250

The mortgage monthly payment can be computed using the pmt formula in excel as follows:

=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)

rate is the rate per month which is 3.5%/12=0.002916667

nper is 30 years multiplied by 12 =360

pv is the amount of mortgage which is $150,000

fv is the sum of the interest on mortgage and mortgage amount which is unknown

=pmt(0.002916667 ,360,-150000,0)= 673.57  

the final answer=closing fees/monthly payment=$2250 /$673.57  = 3.34  months

The closest option is 4 months

Anika [276]

Answer:

Continue operating; $699

Explanation:

The equilibrium price is $10.

MR = MC at 233 units of output.

At this output level, ATC is $12, and AVC is $9.

The AFC or average fixed cost

= ATC - AVC

= $12 - $9

= $3

The total fixed cost

= AFC\ \times Q

= \$ 3\ \times\ 233

= $699

The equilibrium price is able to cover the average variable cost so the firm should continue production in the short run.
