Answer:

The cost basis for the land is equal under both options.

Explanation:

If Taylor pays Ella $150,000 in cash and assumes the mortgage of $100,000, the cost basis of the land will be $250,000 (= $150,000 + $100,000). If he decides to pay Ella the full amount of $250,000, that will also be the cost basis of the land.

The only real difference is that if Taylor decides to assume the mortgage, he will need a smaller initial cash flow ($150,000).

Which of the following can impact your credit score
stealth61 [152]

Answer: B. your Debt to Credit ratio

Explanation:

Your debt to credit ratio is important to lenders because it shows whether you spend wisely when given debt.

Debt to credit is measured as the percentage of debt you have given your credit limit. If for instance you have a credit card limit of $50,000 and have debt of $10,000, your debt to credit ratio is:

= 10,000/50,000 * 100

= 20%

Generally the lower this ratio, the better the contribution to your credit score.
