Answer:
Sandra's creditor must determine if the APR for the loan exceeds the average prime offer rate by:
1.5 percentage points
Explanation:
The first mortgage loan principal should not exceed the conforming loan limit for the area where Sandra lives at the time that she secures the loan approval. It behooves on Sandra’s creditor to determine if the annual percentage rate (APR) for the mortgage loan exceeds the average prime offer rate (or the sample rate that is a representative of the APRs charged by creditors for mortgage loans that have low-risk pricing characteristics) by 1.5 percentage points.
Answer:
B. The value of a perpetuity is equal to the sum of the present value of its expected future cash flows.
C. The current value of a perpetuity is based more on the discounted value of its nearer (in time) cash flows and less by the discounted value of its more distant (in the future) cash flows.
Explanation:
A Perpetuity is a financial instrument that pays the holder forever or in perpetuity. For example, a bank paying you $800 per year for ever because you invested $40,000.
There are certain characteristics
Option B
The Perpetuity like most financial Securities has its value based on the underlying cashflows that it can accumulate. This means that it's value is based on the present value of it's future cashflow so the other the cash payments, the higher the present value.
Option C.
As the discounted cashflows in the nearer future will be discounted less by the discount rate as opposed to the cash flows further in future, the cashflows nearer to the present in time will contribute more to the Perpetuity than the cashflows further in time.
For example using that first example, $800 per year at a rate of 5% will be discounted to $762 in the first year but in year 10 will be discounted to $491.
Answer:
After-tax cost $652
Explanation:
$652 = $800 [1 − (0.5 × 0.370)]. Half of the interest is not deductible because it was used to purchase tax-exempt securities.
