What is a PreQualification in Mortgage Processing
Because most persons who are interested in buying a home do not have hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash to purchase the home of their dreams, the concept of mortgage is to approach a lender who will then advance the needed sum for the purchase and then the borrower will pay the advanced sum over some time (most times up to 30 years) at an interest rate.
A PreQualification is a process through which the lender evaluates the creditworthiness of the borrower and also decide the amount of loan the borrower is entitled to. This is done through the financial documents and records made available to the lender by the borrower
One important takeaway from a prequalification is that it is an approximation of what a borrower is entitled to base solely on the information given to the lender. It is, therefore, an approximation which can be less or more when the official application for the loan is submitted.
As stated in the question, getting a prequalification helps Matt to identify and understand the areas of problems and credit report errors that may arise and then he can use the prequalification information to attend to these errors and ensure a proper application is submitted that will allow him to maximise the amount of loan that can be made available to him.
Once Matt has corrected errors and identified problems that may arise on his mortgage application, he then gathers the relevant document and goes for the first formal process in mortgage processing which is the preapproval.

In the business world, the only good thing we can get out of the times of crisis is that they give you the opportunity to reinvent your company, products or services completely, whether it is to remain competitive or to survive.
The change may come due to crisis situations, the appearance of new competitors, changes in consumer habits or tastes.
Answer: B. Corporate Bonds and T-Bills
Explanation:
As you want to be 95% certain, this would require a 95% confidence interval.
With the given returns and standard deviations, the range of returns expected will be computed by;
Upper limit = Return + 2*SD
Lower limit Return - 2*SD
Stocks
Upper Limit = 18.37% + 2 (38.79%)
= 96.0%
Lower Limit = 18.37% - 2 (38.79%)
= -59.2%
S&P 500
Upper Limit = 11.84% + 2(20.01%)
= 51.9%
Lower Limit = 11.84% - 2(20.01%)
= -28.2%
Corporate Bonds
Upper Limit = 6.47% + 2(6.98%)
= 20.4%
Lower Limit = 6.47% - 2(6.98%)
= -7.5%
T-Bills
Upper Limit = 3.46% + 2(3.14%)
= 9.7%
Lower Limit = 3.46% - 2(3.14%)
= -2.8%
The lower limit show the lowest return achievable given a 95% confidence level.
<em>Only </em><em>Corporate Bonds</em><em> and </em><em>T-Bills</em><em> will give a minimum that is above 8% so they should be chosen. </em>
Answer:
$17,820
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Catalog price of the merchandise = $30,000
Trade discount received = 40%
The amount of discount received = 40% of $30,000
= 0.4 × $30,000
= $12,000
Therefore,
Cost of Merchandise = Catalog price - Discount
= $30,000 - $12,000
= $18,000
also,
credit terms = 1/10, n/30
since, the payment was made within the discount period
1% of discount will be provided
thus,
amount of discount = 1% of cost of merchandise
= 0.01 × $18,000
= $180
hence,
Net cost of the merchandise
= Cost of merchandise - Discount on credit terms
= $18,000 - $180
= $17,820
Answer:
The ending balance of Allowance for Bad Debts account is $800
Explanation:
The computation of the ending balance of allowance for bad debt is shown below:
= Credit sales × uncollectible rate
= $40,000 × 2%
= $800
The estimated amount would be considered as an allowance for bad debts i.e $800, So no other amount would be come while computing the ending balance of Allowance for Bad Debts account.
However, the other information which is given in the question is not relevant. Hence, ignored it
