Comparing Costs of Credit Using Three Calculation Methods. You have been pricing a compact disk player in several stores. Three

stores have the identical price of $300. Each store charges 18 percent APR, has a 30-day grace period, and sends out bills on the first of the month. On further investigation, you find that store A calculates the finance charge by using the average daily balance method, store B uses the adjusted balance method, and store C uses the previous balance method. Assume you purchased the disk player on May 5 and made a $100 payment on June 15. What will the finance charge be if you made your purchase from store A? From store B? From store C? (Obj. 2)

Answer:

Store A finance charge = $140.625

Store B finance charge = $90

Store C finance charge = $202.5

Explanation:

Store A

Average daily balance                            Finance Charge

(300*200)/2 = $250                              3.75(250*0.15) = $140.625

Store B

Adjusted balance method

(300-100) = $200                                    3.00*(200*0.15) = $90

Store C

Previous balance method      

300 - 0 = $300                                        4.50(300*0.15) = $202.5

Answer:

Store A = 3.4521

Store B = 2.9589

Store C =  4.4384

Explanation:

Store A charges ADB method

purchase made on 5th first payment on 15th of 100

so from 5th to 15th Average daily balance =300 for 10 days

then from 15th to 4th for remaining 20 days average daily balance = 200

Average Daily Balance = (300*10+200*20)/30

Total finance charge = ADB*(APR*(Days/365))

=300*((0.18)*(10/365))+200*((0.18)*(20/365))

= 1.4795+1.9726=3.4521

Store B

Adjusted Balance Method uses adjusted balance to calculate the charges

Adjusted balance=Starting balance adjusted for credit and debit

Adjusted balance =300-100=200

Financial Charges = 200*(.18*(30/365))=2.9589

Store C

Previous Balance Method the interest is calculated on amount of balance carried from previous billing cycle

Balance Carried = 300

Charges =300*(.18*(30/365))= 4.4384

Durable Goods $1,250 Nondurable Goods $2,130 Services $9,000 Fixed Investment $1,800 Changes to Business Inventory $135 Investme
Anettt [7]

Answer:

Given that,

Durable Goods = $1,250

Non-durable Goods = $2,130

Services = $9,000

Fixed Investment = $1,800

Changes to Business Inventory = $135

Investment in Stocks & Bonds = $15,500

Federal Government Purchases = $1,800

State/Local Government Purchases = $1,700

Transfer Payments = $675

Exports from the United States = $2,100

Imports into the United States = $2,400

(a) Consumption, C = durable goods + non-durable goods + services

                                = $1,250 + $2,130 + $9,000

                                = $12,380

(b) Private investment, I = Fixed investment + change in inventory + Investment in stocks/bonds

                                       = $1,800 + $135 + $15,500

                                       = $17,435

(c) Government spending, G = Federal government purchase + state/local government purchase

                                               = $1,800 + $1,700

                                               = $3,500

(d) Net exports = Exports - Imports

                         = $2,100 - $2,400

                         = -($300)

GDP = C + I + G + NX

        = $12,380 + $17,435 + $3,500 + (-$300)

        = $33,015

Being cash payment of dividend

Explanation:

a) 2/10, n/30 means that the buyer is to pay within 30 days but is entitled to 2% discount if the purchase is paid for in 10 days. Since Pina records at net amounts after cash discount

To record this purchase = 63,300 * 0.02 = 1,266

                                        = 63,300 - 1266 = $62,034

b) Since payment was made on 26th, it means the 10 day discount was not utilized hence Pina pays full price for the goods
