Answer:

15.7 years

Explanation:

We employ a mathematical approach to solve this;

Present value (PV) of $10 per year at start of year, for n years = $100 (lifetime subscription, life = n years)

Now, we need to get the equivalent amount at the end of each year. This is obtainable from the cost of capital. Which is 7% and that is same as 0.07.

Therefore, we are expecting a value of 1+0.07 = 1.07 and this brings the equivalent amount at the end of each year = 10*1.07

Now, this equivalent amount at the end of each year will give;

(10*1.07)(1.07^n - 1)/(0.07*1.07^n) = 100

Where n is the number of years

n = 15.7 years

​Lisa's credit card balance this month is​ $969.16. Her APR​ (annual percentage​ rate) is 15.24​ %. The minimum payment due is​
8090 [49]

Answer:

It will take 50 months to complete the payment on his entire balance

Explanation:

We have to solve for n in an annuity:

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

C  $20.00  

time n

rate (0.1524 / 12 months per year) 0.00127

PV $969.1600  

20 \times \frac{1-(1+0.00127)^{-n} }{0.00127} = 969.16\\  

(1+0.00127)^{-n}= 1-\frac{969.16\times0.00127}{20}  

(1+0.00127)^{-n}= 0.93845834&#10;

Now, we use logarithmics properties to get the answer:

[tex]-n= \frac{log0.93845834}{log(1+0.00127)  

n = 50.044991

Eric and Katie, who are married, jointly own a house in which they have resided for the past 17 years. They sell the house for $
Elodia [21]

Answer:

C) $0 $285,000

Explanation:

The §121 exclusion establishes that homeowners can exclude from their capital gains taxes the sale of their property for a maximum of $250,000 gain (or $500,000 for joint filers) if they meet two criteria:

  • they owned the property for at last 5 years
  • they use the property as main residence for at least 2 years (they can aggregate time periods).

So if Eric and Katie use the §121 exclusion they wouldn't pay any capital gains tax ($500,000 is higher than $375,000).

If they decide to forgo the §121 exclusion, then they will have to pay taxes for a gain of:

capital gain = net sale price - asst basis

capital gain = ($375,000 - $10,000) - $80,000 = $365,000 - $80,000 = $285,000
