Answer: PMI will automatically be dropped when the balance reaches $117,000.

Explanation: PMI stands for private mortgage insurance. This is an insurance policy that banks often require lenders to have when they do not have a 20% down payment on a new home.

PMI is automatically dropped with the amount of the mortgage due is reduced to 78% of the original appraised value of the home. In this case, the home was originally purchased for $150,000. 78% x 150,000 = $117,000. When the loan reaches $117,000 the pmi will automatically be dropped.

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Cost of goods sold=$955000

Explanation:

we know that to calculate cost of goods sold we have to first finds cost of goods manufactured and to calculate cost of goods manufactured we will need total manufacturing cost.

Step#01: Total manufacturing cost=?

Total manufacturing cost= raw material used+direct labour+ factory overhead

Raw material used=?

     Raw material (open)=         72000

Add:  Raw material purchase=<u>467000</u>

                                                  539000

less: Raw material (ending)=   (<u>93000</u>)

      Raw material used            446000

Total manufacturing cost=446000+363000+213000=1021000

Step#2: Cost of goods manufactured (COGM)=?

we know that: COGM= Total manufacturing cost+ work in process (open)-work in process (end)

          COGM= 1021000+63000-84000=1000,000

Step#3: Cost of goods sold (COGS)=?

 we know that : COGS= Cost of goods manufactured+finished goods (open)-finished goods (ending)

               COGS= 1000000+171000-216000=955000

Suppose that Xtel currently is selling at $66 per share. You buy 500 shares using $20,000 of your own money, borrowing the remai
hram777 [196]

Answer:

The percentage loss will be "-9.08%". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Invested amount

= 20,000

Price of purchase

= $66

Total number of shares

= 500

The borrowed amount will be:

= (500\times 66)-20000

= 13,000

When the price increase to 69.63, the gain will be:

= 69.63-66

= 3.63 ($)

The total gain will be:

= 3.63\times 500

= 1815

Increase in percentage will be:

= \frac{1815}{20,000}\times 100

= 9.08%

Whereas if price stays quite well at $66, there is really no increase, so the percentage growth would be 0%.  

If the price declines toward a loss of 62,37 per share:

= 62.37-66

= -3.63

Now,

The total loss will be:

= -3.63\times 500

= -1815

The percentage loss will be:

= \frac{-1815}{15,000}

= -9.08 (%)
