A. Construct an amortization schedule for the $300,000 loan with a 2.2% interest rate compounded monthly. The loan will be paid

back in 15 years making monthly payments. You need to calculate the principal payment and interest payment respectively of each month.
b. Construct an amortization schedule for the $300,000 loan with a 2.7% interest rate compounded monthly. The loan will be paid back in 30 years making monthly payments.You need to calculate the principal payment and interest payment respectively of each month.

Answer:

since there is not enough room here, I prepared two amortization schedules on an excel spreadsheet and I attached them

Explanation:

in order to determine the monthly payment, we can use the formula to calculate present value of an annuity:

PV = annuity payment x annuity factor

annuity payment = PV / annuity factor

PV = $300,000
annuity factor for 2.2% / 12 = 0.18333% and 180 periods = 153.1964438

I used an annuity calculator to determine the annuity factor

annuity payment = $300,000 / 153.1964438 = $1,958.27

we use the same formulas for the second question:

PV = annuity payment x annuity factor

annuity payment = PV / annuity factor

PV = $300,000
annuity factor for 2.7% / 12 = 0.225% and 360 periods = 246.54977

I used an annuity calculator to determine the annuity factor

annuity payment = $300,000 / 246.54977 = $1,216.79

16. GDP Growth Consider the following data on U.S. GDP: Year GDP (Billions of current dollars) (Billions of 2009 dollars) 2011 1

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The percentage change in nominal GDP from 2013 to 2014 was 4.29%

The percentage change in real GDP from 2012 to 2013 was 1.48%

The percentage change in real GDP from 2012 to 2013 was higher than the percentage change in real GDP from 2011 to 2012. FALSE

Explanation:

In order to calculate this we just have to calculate the percentages with a rule of thirds:

$\frac{GDP1}{100}= \frac{GDP2}{x}$

To calculate the first one we use the nominal GDP which is the GDP with the current market value:

$\frac{GDP1}{100}= \frac{GDP2}{x}\\\frac{16,663.2}{100}= \frac{17,348.1 }{x}\\x=\frac{(100)(17,348.1}{16,663.2} \\x=4.29%$

To calculate the change in real GDP we use the values adapted to a pre-agreed monetary value, in this case the dollar at 2009:

$\frac{GDP1}{100}= \frac{GDP2}{x}\\\frac{15,354.6}{100}= \frac{15,583.3}{x}\\x=\frac{(100)(15,583.3}{15,354.6} \\x=1.48%$

To calculate the 2011 to 2012 we insert the values:

$\frac{GDP1}{100}= \frac{GDP2}{x}\\\frac{ 15,020.6}{100}= \frac{15,354.6}{x}\\x=\frac{(100)(15,354.6}{ 15,020.6} \\x=2.22%$

So with this we know that it is wasn´t higher the percentage change from 2012-2013, than that of 2011-2012

Use the following information:Net sales $ 240,000Cost of goods sold 172,000Beginning inventory 53,000Ending inventory 43,000Calc

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The inventory turnover ratio is 3.58 times

Explanation:

Inventory turnover ratio an efficiency ratio that indicates how many times a company sells and replaces its stock of goods during a particular period

Inventory turnover ratio is calculated by using following formula:

Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of Goods Sold/Average Inventory

In there:

Average Inventory = (Beginning inventory + Ending inventory)/2

In the company:

Average Inventory = ($53,000 + $43,000)/2 = $48,000

Inventory turnover = $172,000/$48,000 = 3.58 times

Comparative advantage A. is unlikely to change, once it has been defined. B. may change as time passes and circumstances change

Alona [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. may change as time passes and circumstances

Explanation:

The concept of comparative advantage is one of the basic foundations of international trade. It assumes as decisive the relative costs of production and not the absolute ones. In other words, countries produce goods that have a lower relative cost compared to the rest of the world.

What would be the consequences if managers of a firm evaluated a project based on its actual dollar cash flows, but used a real

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Real rate of returns are lower than nominal rates of return, therefore, using a real discount rate would overestimate a project's net present value. This could result in unprofitable projects being accepted because the NPV was erroneously calculated. If you want to use a real discount rate, you must first convert cash flows to real dollars.

For example, nominal discount rate is 10%, inflation rate is 5%, real discount rate is 5%.

Initial outlay $100

NCF year 1 = $40

NCF year 2 = $40

NCF year 3 = $40

Using the real discount rate, the NPV = $8.93

Using the nominal discount rate, the NPV = -$0.53
