Which of the below individuals has the best capacity to pay back a loan?

insens350 [35]

Answer:

D. John

Explanation:

John has an annual income of $100,000 which is equivalent to a monthly salary of $ 8,334.00 ($100,000 divide by 12 months)

Applying the 28/36 borrowing rule, Mr. John cannot exceed 36 percent of his monthly income to service debts. It means that John has $ 3000 available every month to service his loans.

John intends to take a loan of $ 10,000. This amount is within his ability to pay. Even if he has other debts, he only needs months to clear the loan plus interest.

If we apply the same rule to Paul, his monthly salary is $2, 084.00. He has $ 750.00 available to pay the loan every month. A loan of $ 50,000 with interest will take about seven years to clear. Considering he may want to take other loans in that period and the value of the car by then, Paul is likely to default.

Eileen will have $720 available for repayments per month and annually $ 8640.00 to repay $400,000.00; she will need about 47 years. Considering her age, it's not viable.

The rickerts decided to set up an account for their daughter to pay for her college education. the day their daughter was born,

Free_Kalibri [48]

After n years, the deposit made at birth will have a value equal to;

FV1 = C(1+r)^n = 1000(1+0.018)^n = 1000(1.018)^n

After n years, the yearly deposits made at every birthday will have a value equal to;

FV2 = P{(1+r)^n-1}/r = 750{(1+0.018)^n-1}/0.018 = 41666.67 {(1.018)^n-1} = 41666.67 (1.018)^n -41666.67

Total FV = FV1+FV2 = 1000(1.018)^n+41666.67(1.018)^n-41666.67 = 42666.67 (1.018)^n - 41666.67

Answer:

Cheeses from England.

Explanation:

First, let us define what Marketing Mix is:

This refers to the number of strategies a company employs to promote its goods and services in the market. The four Ps of the marketing mix include Product, Price, Place and Promotion.

The goal of a marketing strategy is to create awareness among the target audience.

Feedback and surveys are ways in which a company informs its marketing mix strategy. Therefore, if it has been determined from the customer feedback from company surveys and cheese tasting that the Product the customers prefer is Cheese from England, then that is what should be produced and promoted.

It cannot be over emphasized that companies are in business because of the customers, so their opinion takes precedence, as the saying goes, customer is always right. Therefore, if the need of the customer is not met, the company will make no profits.

The company president and product director will have to do what the customer wants.
