Answer: Direct evidence of ability to pay debt

Explanation:

Payment history and Total debt are so highly rated because they provide direct evidence of the person's ability to pay back debt.

Payment history shows how well the person had been paying off previous debt and this is very important because it is believed to show a person's ability to pay future debt. If a person's payment history is bad, credit rating agencies will express doubt at this trend changing thus reducing one's credit score.

Total debt is an even more direct determinant of a person's ability to pay. The more debt a person currently holds, the less they will be able to pay for new debt because it would mean that a significant part of their income is already going towards debt payment. This will therefore reduce a person's credit score. The reverse is true.

John Fillmore’s lifelong dream is to own his own fishing boat to use in his retirement. John has recently come into an inheritan

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

John Fillmore must invest $53,739.68 of his inheritance annually to buy the boat at retirement.

Explanation:

To determine this, we employ the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity is used as follows:

FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (1)

Where,

FV = Future value or the amount of the boat he wants = $341,400

M = Annual investment required = ?

r = Annual interest rate = 12%, or 0.12

n = number of yeas = 6

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for M, we have:

$341,400 = M * (((1 + 0.12)^5 - 1) / 0.12)

$341,400 = M * 6.35284736

M = $341,400 / 6.35284736

M = $53,739.6824846741

Approximating to 2 decimal places, we have:

M = $53,739.68

Therefore, John Fillmore must invest $53,739.68 of his inheritance annually to buy the boat at retirement.

The computation of accounts receivable turnover is shown below:-

Account receivable turnover ratio = Net credit sales ÷ Average accounts receivable

where,

Net credit sales is $1,000,000

And, the Average accounts receivable is

= (Accounts receivable, beginning of year + Accounts receivable, end of year) ÷ 2

= ( $700,000 + $300,000) ÷ 2

= $500,000

Accounts receivable turnover = Net sales ÷ Average accounts receivable

= $1,000,000 ÷ $500,000

= 2 times
