Answer:
Explanation:
(1)
FV = PV x (1 + r)^N
FV = $75,000
PV = $35,000
r = 8%
75,000 = 35,000 x (1.08)^N
(1.08)N = 2.1429
N ln 1.08 = ln 2.1429
N = ln 2.1429 / ln 1.08 = 0.33 / 0.033 = 10 years
(2)
FV = Annual payment, A x PVA
FV = $43,700
n = 6 years
A = 8,000
43,700 = 8,000 x PVA
PVA = 5.4625
PVIFA (6 years, r%) = 5.4172
r=3%.
(3)
PV = Annual payment, A x PVIFA (r%, n years)
PV = $18,000
n = 6 years
r = 9%
$18,000 = A x PVIFA (9%, 6 years) = A x 4.4859 [From PVIFA table]
A = $18,000 / 4.4859 = $4,012.57
Answer:
The First Bank loan has an effective rate of 7.98 percent.
Explanation:
we calcualte the effective rate for both loand and check which statement is correct.
<u>First bank:</u>
1.07977643 - 1 = 0.07977 = 7.98%
<u>Second bank:</u>
1.076798729 - 1 = 0.076798729 = 7.68%
Notice tthis isthe effective rate not the annual percentage rate.
So only the statement abour the first bank effectibe rate is true.
Answer:
A. $6,400
B. $240
C. $1,000,000
D. $30,000
Explanation:
Requirement A, C, and D:
Prizes and awards are taxable income for a taxpayer. Any awards or prizes won from the lottery or television should be added to the income. Therefore, the Winning lottery is a taxable income for Kerry, $1,000,000. Again, Receiving the award for scientific research is also taxable income for Deborah, $30,000.
The winning award for accomplishments is also a taxable income. So, receiving a $6,400 worth gift bag is a taxable income for Cheline.
Requirement B:
There is an exception if the award is for tangible property and a long-years of accomplishment. At that time, the taxpayers will be excluded from some part of the necessary amounts to be paid as tax. If it is not a qualified award, the exclusion will be $400. If it is qualified, the tax exclusion is 1,600. Since Jon received a gold watch for 25 years of service and the gift is not qualified, he has to pay tax for $(660 - 400) = $240.
