Answer:

The lump sum be of $237,228.84

Explanation:

In order to calculate how large must the lump sum be we would have to use  and calculate the formula of Present value of annuity due as follows:

Present value of annuity due=(1+interest rate)*Annuity[1-(1+interest rate)^-time period]/rate

Present value of annuity due=(1+0.075)*$25,000[1-(1.075)^-15]/0.075

Present value of annuity due=$25,000*9.489153726

Present value of annuity due=$237,228.84(Approx)

The lump sum be of $237,228.84

<span>Maintaining an active lifestyle requires small but manageable changes in daily life. First of all, awareness is key. How many steps do you normally take? What do your work life and home life look like in terms of movement? Once someone knows what a typical day looks like, they can see where they are weak. Small changes can then be made, such as parking the car further from the store or taking walking breaks when sitting at the office desk for hours each day. Finally, an active lifestyle can be social. Being with friends does not have to revolve around food and drink; rather, friends can be enjoyed while playing leisurely sports (i.e., racquetball, tennis) or walking while conversing.</span>

sammy [17]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

(a)

Journal entry to record the transaction is,

Particulars                                                                  Debit      Credit

Land and Building (460000 + 520000)                 $980,000

Cash Paid                                                                           $360,000

Mortgage Payable (980,000 - 360,000)                         $620,000

We assume that 4% interest is chargeable each semiannual payment and that each subsequent payment is charged 4% on the remaining amount of principal minus any preceding principal payments.

(b)

First installment = Principal + Interest payable

= 31,000 + (620,000 * 0.04) = $55,800

(c)

Second payment = 31,000 + [(620,000 - 31000) * 0.04] = $54,560

Since the chart of accounts is not provided you can confirm the the account headings.

Hope that helps.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Income statements and or Cash flow statements.

Explanation:

Income statement and Cash flow statements are required.

Income Statement will give us insight about our costs as we maybe recording sales but if the costs and expenses are too high we are unlikely to be making enough gross profits to be able to pay bills.

Cash flow statements are required as sales may be credit and thus reducing working capital for the company, although they may be making profits but if the debts are uncollected they are unlikely to have cash available to be able to make payments.

Hope that helps.

Use the following information to determine the break-even point in units (rounded to the nearest whole unit):
denis23 [38]

Answer:

29,771 units

Explanation:

The break-even indicates the number of units that you have to sell to cover your costs. The break-even point is calculated by using the formula:

Break-even point in units= Fixed costs/(selling price per unit-variable cost per unit)

Break-even point in units= $195,000/($14.95-$8.40)

Break-even point in units= $195,000/$6.55

Break-even point in units= 29,771 units

The break-even point in units is 29,771.
