Answer:

The amount of total interest over the entire mortgage period could she save by financing her home with the 15-year mortgage is $138,612

Explanation:

First find the total interest on the 30-year mortgage:

PV = 195,000

N = 360

FV = 0

I = 6.1/12 = 0.5083

195,000 = PMT × PVIFA (0.061/12, 360 months); (in excel)

PMT of 1,181.69 × 360 = 230,408;

Next find the total interest on the 15-year mortgage:

PV = 195,000

N = 180

FV = 0

I = 5.5/12 = 0.4583

195,000 = PMT × PVIFA (0.055/12, 180 months); (in excel)

PMT of 1,593.31 × 180 = 91,796;

The amount of interest saved is: $230,408.34 − $91,796.29 = $138,612.05

g Under Bonus Depreciation, which was part of the tax reform act under Trump’s administration, Taxpayers are allowed to claim 10
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Under Bonus Depreciation, which was part of the tax reform act under Trump’s administration, Taxpayers are allowed to claim 100 percent of property acquired and placed into service after September 27, 2017 and before January 1, 2023.

  • a. True

Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, bonus depreciation increased from 50% to 100% fro qualified property acquired between September 27, 2017, and before January 1, 2023.

Taxpayers generally want to take as much depreciation expense as possible in the earliest possible years due to the time value of money.

  • b. False

The time value of money states that 1 dollar today is worth more than 1 dollar tomorrow, so 1 dollar saved today is worth more than 1 dollar saved tomorrow. That means that taxpayers will want to decrease their taxes as much as possible and as soon as possible.

Loss of the Gocha mangrove forests has caused coastal erosion, reducing fish populations and requiring the Gocha Fishing Coopera
BigorU [14]

Answer:

D. Mangrove forests tend to increase the commercial fish populations in coastal fishing grounds

Explanation:

From the scenario, we can see that

''Loss of the Gocha mangrove forests has caused coastal erosion, reducing fish populations and requiring the Gocha Fishing Cooperative (GFC) to partially fund dredging and new shore facilities.''

From the above extract of the scenario it is clear that loss of mangrove forests reduces fish population. If the foregoing is true, then reduction in fish population implies reduction in the revenue of the Gocha Fishing Cooperative. Secondly the loss of mangrove forests has not only led to loss of revenue due to less fish but also increase in cost by having to fund dredging

Therefore, based on the fact that loss of mangrove leads to loss of fish and by extension revenue, planting more trees will lead to more fish and more revenue, apart from the fact that the cost of dredging will not have to be incurred leading to greater revenue.

You are planning to purchase the stock of Ted's Sheds Inc. and you expect it to pay a dividend of $3 in 1 year, $4.25 in 2 years
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

$81.52

Explanation:

To determine the price of the stock, one has to calculate the present value of the stock.

The present value is the sum of discounted cash flows.

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 1 = $3

Cash flow in year 2 = $4.25

Cash flow for year 3 = $100 + $6 = $106

I = 12 %

Present value = $81.52

The price one would pay for the stock today is $81.52

To find the PV using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute
