Thom owes $7,200 on his credit card. The credit card carries an APR of 18.4 percent compounded monthly. If Thom makes monthly pa

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer: 45 months

Explanation:

Credit owed $7200

Monthly payment $225

APR annaully 18.4%

Monthly APR = 18.4/12 = 1.533%

SOLUTION

1st Month interest payment

1.533% x $7200 / 100 = $110.40

Principal paid (monthly payment - interest paid) = $225 - $110.40 = $114.60

Balance ( principal - principal paid) = 7200 - 114.60 = $7085.40

2nd Month interest payment

1.533% x $7085.40 / 100 = $108.64

Principal paid (monthly payment - interest paid) = $225 - $108.64 = $116.36

Balance ( principal - principal paid) = $7085.40 - $116.36 = $6969.04

By following this step up to the 45th month you get $74.74 as the monthly payment this sums up to.

Month interest payment

1.533% x $74.74 / 100 = $1.15

Principal paid (monthly payment - interest paid) = $75.88 - $1.15 = $74.74

Balance ( principal - principal paid) = $74.74 - $74.74 = $0

The payment would be completed at exactly 45months

Exercise 10-6 Direct Materials and Direct Labor Variances [LO10-1, LO10-2] Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound

muminat

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct material:

Standard= 7.40 pounds $ 2.60 per pound

Actual= 12,100 pounds of material were purchased for $2.50 per pound.

Direct labor:

Standard= 0.45 hours $ 8.00 per hour

Actual= 575 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $5,750

Units produced= 1,500

<u>To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:</u>

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (2.6 - 2.5)*12,100

Direct material price variance= $1,210 favorable

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

standard quantity= 1,500*7.4= 11,100

Direct material quantity variance= (11,100 - 12,100)*2.6

Direct material quantity variance= $2,600 unfavorable

T<u>o calculate the direct labor efficiency and rate variance, we need to use the following formulas:</u>

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

Standard quantity= 1,500*0.45= 675

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (675 - 575)*8

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $800 favorable

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

Actual rate= 5,750/575= $10

Direct labor rate variance= (8 - 10)*575

Direct labor rate variance= $1,150 unfavorable
