Answer:
$62,160
Explanation:
Given:
Purchase price = $300,000
Down payment = 10% of purchase price = 0.1 × $300,000 = $30,000
Thus,
the cumulative amount to be financed = $300,000 - $30,000 = $270,000
The present value of an annuity of $1 per year for 8 years at 16% = $4.3436
Now,
Annual payment
= ( Cumulative Amount financed ) / ( Cumulative PV factor at 16% for 8 years)
= $270,000 / 4.3436
= $62,160.42
≈ $62,160
Answer:
Sole proprietorship:
Advantage: is very easy to establish, and gives total control to the owner.
Disadvantage: the sole owner is personally liable in case of bankruptcy.
Partnership:
Advantage: involve two or more people, meaning that capital is likely to be higher. Gives tax benefits to partners.
Disadvantage: partners are also personally liable in case of bankruptcy.
Corporation:
Advantage: a corporation is legally, a separate entity from its stockholders, meaning that stockholders are not personally liable in case of bankruptcy. Corporations can also grow to include a large number of people (stockholders).
Disadvantage: they are more difficult to start than other types of business entities, and are more closely inspected.
Limited Liability Company:
Advantage: they combine the pass-through characteristics of partnerships with the limited liability of corporations.
Disadvantage: they are not necessarily as profitable as corporations.
