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.

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": Kelvin buys more donuts at $0.80 per donut than at $0.95 per donut, other things equal.

Explanation:

The demand law states that if the price of a good or service decreases, the quantity demanded for that good or service will increase. On the other hand, if the price of a god or service increases, the quantity demanded will decrease. The price-quantity demanded of the demand law is inversely proportional, <em>ceteris paribus</em>.

Thus, Kelvin's case is an example of the demand law since he purchases more donuts when the price is lower ($0.80) and purchases fewer donuts when the price is higher ($0.95).
