Answer: 1 year and 6 months

Explanation:

The cash flows are as follows,

Year 0 = ($2,500)

Year 1 = $1,500

Year 2 = $1,500

Year 3 = $1,500

Payback period is the time it will take to break even the intial investment (In this question the initial investment is $2,500)

The sum of the cashflows of year1 and year2 is equal to $3,000

which means that the payback period is somewhere bbetween year 1 and year2

1500/3000 = 0.5 year or 6 months

the total payback period is 1 year and 6 months

Answer:

D. Ensure that she credits the loan amount accurately to the customer’s account

Explanation:

Financial institutions are companies that offer a wide range of monetary and financial services to various customers. The financial institutions include; commercial banks, brokerage firms, investments firms and currency exchange companies. The services offered are; cash deposits and withdrawals, loans, investment services and currency exchange services.

These services can be offered to individuals or even companies that might need a wide range of financial services. In order for these services to be conducted in an orderly fashion, the services offered have to be regulated. This means that the service providers and the customers have to operate within a legal threshold. A knowledge of the legal responsibility of each party is therefor important in these type of environment.

In our case, the legal responsibility of Erin who works as a representative of the financial institution would be to ensure that she credits the loan amount accurately to the customer's account since Erin had already approved the customer's housing loan.
