Answer:

c. producers

Explanation:

Since it is given in the question that the price elasticity of demand is relatively elastic but the price elastic of supply is relatively inelastic but if the excise tax is imposed on the goods so the greater burden of the tax would be on the producers as the supply is inelastic so the producers could not changed much but if we compare to the consumers, the consumer could change the demand more than before due to the elastic in demand.

So, the correct option is c.

If you have a low credit score, lenders are more likely to give you what type of interest rate? A. A low interest rate B. A high
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

B) A high interest rate.

Explanation:

A low credit score means a bad credit score. Meaning you are not that reliable in paying your credit back. If you were reliable, they would make it easy for you and give you a low interest rate. However, your credit score says otherwise so they will give you a high interest rate since you are a higher risk.

A homeowner has a mortgage balance of $149,570.75. If the interest rate on the loan is 9.5% and the monthly payment is $1,303.55
nalin [4]

Answer:

Principal balance at the end of year 2 = 149,330.9079

Explanation:

Loan Amortization: A loan repayment method structured such that a series of equal periodic installments will be paid for certain number of periods to offset both the loan principal amount and the accrued interest.

We will use the following relationships:

Interest paid = Interest rate × loan balance

Principal paid = Monthly installment - Interest paid

Principal balance= loan balance - principal paid

Year 1

Interest paid    =    9.5%/12 × 149,570.75 =   1,184.101          

Principal paid in year 1 = 1,303.55 -  1,184.101  = 119.448

Principal balance =  149,570.75 - 119.448= 149,451.3018

Year 2

Interest paid = interest rate × loan balance in year 1 = 1183.156

Interest paid = 9.5%/12 × 149,451.3018 = 1183.156

Principal paid = 1,303.55 - 1183.156139  = 120.393

Principal balance at the end of year 2= Principal balance in year 1 - Principal paid in  year 2

= 149,451.3018  - 120.393861  = 149330.9079

Principal balance at the end of year 2 = 149,330.90
