Kim is trying to decide whether she can afford a loan she needs in order to go to chiropractic school. Right now Kim is living a

t home and works in a shoe store, earning a gross income of $1,230 per month. Her employer deducts $165 for taxes from her monthly pay. Kim also pays $134 on several credit card debts each month. The loan she needs for chiropractic school will cost an additional $172 per month. Help Kim make her decision by calculating her debt payments-to-income ratio with and without the college loan. (Remember the 20 percent rule.)

Answer:

Debt to income ratio is all your debt payments divided by all the money you earn during a month. Generally you are considered to be in good financial shape when your debt to income ratio is less than 20%, if it's less than 10% it is even better.

Kim's gross income = $1,230 - $165 (taxes) = $1,065

Kim's total debt payments without new debt = $134 (credit card payments)

Kim's total debt payments including new debt = $134 + $172 (new debt) = $306

Kim's debt to income ration without new debt = $134 / $1,065 = 12.58%

Kim's debt to income ration with new debt = $306 / $1,065 = 28.73%

Currently Kim's debt to income ratio is only 12.58% which is very good, but if she takes the new loan then her ratio will increase to 28.73% which is extremely high and not prudent.

Explanation:

<u>Camaras: </u>

<u>Camcorders: </u>

cost: 8,850

net realizable value: 9,170

net realizable value: 11,040

<u>Company's total inventory</u>

10,960 + 8,850 + 11,040 = 30,850

We must pick between the historic cost or the net realizable value the lower. The reasoning behind this is the conservatism accounting principle to keep the assets valued at minimum.
