7 0

Proration occurs because it is impossible to accurately estimate the future overhead costs and production activity; it is either the overhead is over applied or under applied. The variance will have to be adjusted for at the end of the financial year.

Suppose that five years ago you borrowed $300,000 using a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage with an annual interest rate of 10% with m

Elenna [48]

Answer:

Please check the explanation below.

Explanation:

Rate of Interest =10% or 0.83% monthly

Monthly Payment under this plan=PMT(0.0083, 360, 300000) =$2,632.71

Loan outstanding after 5 years of payments =$289,723

New Interest Rate =8.5% or 0.7083% monthly

Balance Tenure= 25 years

New Monthly Installment =PMT(0.007083,300,289723) =$2,332.93

Monthly savings in installment reduction =$2,632.71 - 2,332.93 =$299.78

a. Net present value of refinancing = -0.05x289,723 + 299.78x{(1-(1+0.007083)-300)/0.007083}

= -14,486.15 + 299.78x124.1886

= -14,486.15 + 37,229.25

= 22,743.10

b. With new monthly installment, balance outstanding at the end of 8th year =$278,258

Net Present Value of Refinance = -0.05x289,723 + 299.78x{(1-(1+0.007083)-36)/0.007083}

= -14,486.15 + 299.78x31.68

= -14,486.15 + 9,446.46

= -4,989.68

c. For refinance loan to have net present value positive, let n payments are required,

NPV = -0.05x289,723 + 299.78x{(1-(1+0.007083)-n)/0.007083}

14,486.15 = 299.78x{(1-(1+0.007083)-n)/0.007083}

14,486.15x0.00783/299.78 =(1-(1.007083)-n)

0.3423 = 1-(1.007083)-n

(1.007083)-n = 0.6577

(1.007083)n = 1.5204

Taking Log both sides,

n = log(1.5204)/log(1.007083)

n = 59.36

Hence, he would need to make 60 payments for making NPV of refinance as zero.

During fiscal 2016, mattel had sales of $5,456,650, total expenses of $5,138,628 and gross profit of $2,554,391. What was mattel

liberstina [14]

Calculation of Cost of Sales for Mattel for the year 2016:

It is given that Mattel had sales of $5,456,650, and gross profit of $5,456,650for the year 2016. The cost of sales can be calculated with the help of following formula:

Cost of Sales = Sales – Gross Profit

Cost of Sales = 5,456,650-5,456,650

Cost of Sales = 2,902,259

Hence the Cost of Sales is 2,902,259 ($ in thousands).

6. Twins Barbara and Mary are both age 27. Beginning at age 27, Barbara invests $2,000 per year for 10 years and then never sets

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Barbara will have $210,349

Mary will have $188,922

Explanation:

Total time of investment is 40 years = age 67 - age 27

After 10 years, Barbara will have $27,633 (this figure used "FV" calculation in excel = FV(7%,10,2000)

Then Barbara put all $27,633 in next 30 years then she will have $210,349 = 27,633 x (1+7%)^30

Mary didn't now invest in first 10 years, but then invests $2,000 per year for the next 30 years, so she will have $188,922 = FV(7%,30,2000)

Assume that a country has a closed economy that has only three goods/services. That is, there is no trade with other countries,

postnew [5]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given

Consumption = (10 x 30) = 300

Investment = (100 x 2) = 200

Government Spending = (500 x 1) =500

13. Total GDP for this economy = Consumption + Investment+ Government spending

=(10 x 30) + (100 x 2) + (500 x 1)

=$1000

14. Consumption % on GDP

= Consumption/ Total GDP x 100

=(300/1000) x 100

= 30%

15. Investment % in GDP

= Investment / Total GDP x 100

=(200/ 1000) x 100

=20%

16. Government spending % on GDP

=Government spending/ Total GDP x 100

=(500/1000) x 100

=50%
