You are in the process of getting a new car but are not sure if you should buy or lease. The price of the car you want is $18,00

0, but you do not want to spend more than $250 a month on car payments. If you lease the car, the terms of the lease will be 48 months at an annual interest rate of 5%. The residual value of the car will be set at $9,000. If you buy the car, your bank will offer you a 7-year loan at an annual interest rate of 6%. You are not required to make a down payment with either the lease or loan options, and payments are made at the end of the month for both options.
Should you lease or buy the car given your budget limit of $250 a month? Create a new workbook and design a worksheet that shows the difference between leasing and buying the car in terms of monthly payments. Use proper formatting so your worksheet is easy to read. Remember to use column and row headings, add a title to your worksheet, and rename the worksheet tab with an appropriate label. Include your name in the file name of the workbook.

Answer:

You should buy the car.

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the worksheet that shows calculations of the present values of the Lease and Buy Options.

In the attached excel file, we have:

Net present value of Lease Option = $3,654.01

Total present value of Buy Option = $4,135.47

Difference = Total present value of Buy Option - Present value of Lease Option = $481.46

The Difference above shows that the total present value of Buy Option is greater than the net present value of Lease Option by $481.46.

Since the total present value of Buy Option of $4,135.47 is greater than the net present value of Lease Option of $3,654.01, you should buy the car.

salantis [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

When we save we deposit it in  the bank and do not loan it out directly. But the bank keeps a certain portion of it and lends out the rest to those who need credit. So, the savings that we deposit in the bank become the basis of credit creation.

That is why the statement about saving and lending given in the question is incorrect.

The period manufacturing costs of a company is comprised of $2,000,000 in direct materials, $1,000,000 in direct labor, and $500
shutvik [7]

Answer:

The Direct material cost per unit is = 285.714 per unit

The  Direct labor per unit is= 142.857 per unit

The Overhead cost per unit is  = 71.4285 per unit

Explanation:

Solution

We recall that:

The total direct material= $2000000

The total direct labor= $1000000

The units in products = 7000 units

The total Overheads= $500000

Now,

The direct materials on machinery is = $ 800,000(40%)

The direct labor on machinery  is= $ 600,000(60 %)

The machinery on overheard  is = $ 250,000(50 %)

The direct materials on assembly is  = $ 1200,000

The Direct labor on assembly is  = $ 400,000

The Overhead on assembly  is = $ 250,000

Thus,

The hybrid manufacturing cost statement is represented or shown below

Particular   Machinery (40%)in $     Assembly (60%)in $  Total in $

Now,

Particular = Direct material,

Machinery (40%)in $  = 800000

Assembly 60% in $ = 1200000

Total in $ =2000000

Grand total = 1650000

Particular = labor

Machinery (40%)in $  = 600000

Assembly 60% in $  = 400000

Total in $ = 1000000

Grand total = 1850000

Particulars = Overhead

Machinery (40%)in $ =250000

Assembly 60% in $ = 250000

Total in $ = 500000

Grand total = 3500000

Thus,

The Direct material cost per unit = 2000000/7000 = 285.714 per unit

The  Direct labor per unit = 1000000/700 = 142.857 per unit

The Overhead cost per unit = 500000/7 = 71.4285 per unit
