Answer:

net annual cost of renting is less than that of purchase

so we can say it is beneficial to rent the property

Explanation:

we know that that Costs Associated with Buying a Property

Annual Mortgage Payment  = $ 9800 ( out of $9575 is interest payment)

Property Taxes = $ 1780

Down Payment  = $ 4500

Insurance / Maintenance = $1050

Total Costs = 17,130

minus here  Tax Savings on Mortgage Interest = $2,681

that is  ( 9575 × 28%)

Tax Savings on Property Taxes = $498.40 i.e (28% of 1780)

Growth in Equity = $225.00

Estimated Annual appreciation= $ 1,700.00

Net Annual cost on purchase= $ 12,025.60

Costs Associated with Renting a Property   Annual Rent = $ 7,380.00

Security Deposit  = $   650.00

Insurance = $   145.00

Total Costs  = $ 8,175.00

Less   Interest receivable on   Down payment amt invested = $ 270.00    

i.e (4500  6% after tax rate)

Net Annual Cost on Renting = $7,905.00

so that here net annual cost of renting is less than that of purchase

so we can say it is beneficial to rent the property

An industry is composed of 10 firms, all with equal sales. the four-firm concentration ratio in this industry is
Klio2033 [76]
The four-firm ratio is the concentration ratio between the total sales accumulated by the four largest industrial firms to the total sales of all firms present in an industry. This translates to the mathematical expression of 

           four-firm ratio = (total sales of four largest firms / total sales)

Since, we are given that all 10 firms have the same sales, we let the sales be equal to x.

    total sales of four largest firms = 4x
    total sales  = 10x

The ratio is then,
 
                   four-firm ratio = 4/10

Converting this to percentage will yield us an answer of 40%.
