Alja [10]

Answer:

a. The monthly payment on loan 1 is $76.03.

b. The monthly payment on loan 2 is $411.69.

Explanation:

a. Calculate the monthly payment on loan 1.

To determine the amount of periodic payments, the present value of annuity formula should be used:

$PV=P(\frac{1-(1+r)^{-n} }{r} )$

Where:

PV= present value

p=periodic payment

i=rate of interest

n=number of periods

We get the data for this exercise:

PV= 3,600 (loan).

p= unknown (we must find this value)

i= 6.6% or 0.066. However, because we need to know the monthly payment, the interest rate should be divided by 12 (0.066 / 12).

n= 4 years and 7 months, that is 55 months.

And we replace in the formula:

$3600=P(\frac{1-(1+\frac{0.066}{12})^{-55} }{\frac{0.066}{12} } )$

$3600=P(\frac{1-(1+0.055)^{-55} }{0.0055} )$

$3600=P(\frac{1-(0.7395812268)}{0.0055} )$

$3600=P(\frac{0.2604187732}{0.0055} )$

$3600=P(47.348867)$

Therefore:

$P=\frac{3600}{47.348867}$

$P=76.03$

The monthly payment on loan 1 is $76.03.

b. Calculate the monthly payment on loan 2.

We get the data for this exercise:

PV= 11,600 (loan 2).

p= unknown (we must find this value)

i= 7.3% or 0.073. However, because we need to know the monthly payment, the interest rate should be divided by 12 (0.073 / 12).

n= 2 years and 7 months, that is 31 months.

And we replace in the formula:

$11600=P(\frac{1-(1+\frac{0.073}{12})^{-31} }{\frac{0.073}{12} } )$

$11600=P(\frac{1-(1+0.006083)^{-31} }{0.006083} )$

$11600=P(\frac{1-(0.8286047296)}{0.006083} )$

$11600=P(\frac{0.1713952704}{0.006083} )$

$11600=P(28.1761088936)$

Therefore:

$P=\frac{11600}{28.1761088936}$

$P=411.69$

The monthly payment on loan 2 is $411.69.

katovenus [111]

Answer:

Explanation:

Forecast usage = 50 %

Actual Usage = 52%

smoothing constant = 0.10

⇒ 50 + 0.10 (52 - 50)

⇒ 50 + 0.10 (2)

⇒ 50 + 0.2 = 50.20

<span>Some pharmaceutical companies use the symbolic or prestige pricing strategy to price their OTC drugs. They do this because many consumers see a price and assume the potency of the drug on the dollar amount--something more expensive is assumed to be more potent. Symbolic/prestige pricing assumes high prices equal high quality in the minds of consumers.</span>
