Answer:

23.275 years

Explanation:

Given:

Present value or the amount invested = $ 300,000

Rate = 6% compounded quarterly

i.e the rate of return quarterly will be = 6% / 4 = 1.5%

Quarterly payment = $ 6,000

Annuity = $ 0

Now,

Present value of annuity = Part payment × (\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+r)^n}}{r})

where,

n is the number of quarters

on substituting the values in the formula, we get

$ 300,000 = $ 6000 ×  (\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+(0.015))^n}}{0.015})

or

50 × 0.015 =  ({1-\frac{1}{(1.015))^n})

or

{\frac{1}{(1.015))^n} = 1 - 0.75

or

4 = (1.015)^n}

taking log both the sides

we get

log 4 = n × log 1.015

or

0.602 = n × 0.0064

or

n = 93.101 quarters

or

n = 93.101 / 4 = 23.275 years

elena55 [62]

Answer:

Promissory agreement and Deed of trust.

Explanation:

In this scenario, Seller Dayne was made aware by the trustee that the lender was wanting to proceed with foreclosure on his property. The type of financial agreement that Seller Dayne have with this lender is a Promissory agreement and Deed of trust.

A promissory agreement can be defined as an evidence of a debt and as such involves the use of a legal financial tool such as a promissory note as a written promise to declare that a party (borrower) would pay another (lender) at a specific period of time.

On the other hand, a deed of trust can be defined as a legal document used by a party (borrower) to pledge his or her property to another party (lender) as guarantee or collateral for the repayment of a loan. The deed of trust is typically made up of three (3) parties; the lender, borrower and a trustee.

Additionally, a foreclosure on a property refers to a legal procedure whereby the property being pledged by a borrower for a debt is sold to pay off the debt as a result of defaulting in payments or terms with respect to a loan.
