Answer:

c. 10%

Explanation:

Margin of safety is the sales value at which the business is safe from making loss. It measures the profit after the break-even point. The sales over the break-even point is considered as the margin of safety.

Margin of safety = Actual Sales - Break-even point = 12,500 units - 11,250 units = 1250 units

Percentage of margin of safety to sales = Margin of safety / Actual sales

Percentage of margin of safety to sales = 1,250 / 12,500

Percentage of margin of safety to sales = 0.10

Percentage of margin of safety to sales = 10%

You are ready to buy a house, and you have $20,000 for a down payment and closing costs. Closing costs are estimated to be 4% of
Bess [88]

Answer:

So we can offer for the house $180119.95

Explanation:

Monthly income =$4000

Monthly mortgage payment allowed (P)= 25% of 4000= $1000

Interest rate per month (i)= 0.5%

Number of months in total (n)= 30*12= 360

Maximum loan affordable = P*(1-(1/(1+i)^n))/i

=1000*(1-(1/(1+0.5%)^360))/0.5%

=$166791.61

Closing cost is 4% of loan value = 166791.61*4% =$6671.66

Balance Amount left for down payment = 20000-6671.66

=$13328.34

It means we can pay $6671.66 for closing cost of Loan and $13328.34 for down payment.

Cost of house paid maximum = Down payment + Affordable loan

=13328.34+166791.61

=$180119.95

So we can offer for the house $180119.95
