serg [7]

Answer:

Housing million dollars $1,655.2

Automobile million dollars $413.80

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the total amount of loans of each type

Calculation for HOMEOWNER LOANS

Homeowner loans=$20,000-[(10%*20,000)/(4*12%+10%)]*10%

Homeowner loans=[$20,000-($2,000/48%+10%)]*10%

Homeowner loans=[$20,000-($2,000/58%)]*10%

Homeowner loans=[$20,000-$3,448.3]*10%

Homeowner loans=$16,552*10%

Homeowner loans=$1,655.2

Calculation for AUTO LOANS

Auto Loans=[(10%*20,000)/(4*12%+10%)]*12%

Auto Loans=($2,000/(48%+10%)]*12%

Auto Loans=($2,000/58%)*12%

Auto Loans= $3,448.3*12%

Auto Loans=$413.80

Based on the above calculation Homeowner loans amount of $1,655.2 is 4 times Auto Loans amount of $413.80

Therefore the total amount of loans of each type that Madison should extend to each category in order to maximize its returns are:

Housing million dollars $1,655.2

Automobile million dollars $413.80
