Answer: 7.67%

Explanation:

To solve this, the financial calculator will be needed

Present value = -896.87

Future Value = 1,000

N = [(25 - 5years) × 2 = 40

PMT = $45

Given the above information, we will press the financial calculator as we'll press CPT after which we then press I/Y and we'll get 5.11%

Then, the the firm's after-tax cost of debt will be:

= (5.11% x 2 )(1 - 0.25)

= (0.0511 × 2) (0.75)

= 0.07665

= 7.665%

= 7.67%

A seller netted $55,000 at closing. if the seller paid costs of $1000 and an 8.5% commission, what was the sale price to the nea
Ulleksa [173]

Answer: The sale price to the nearest dollar was $61,202

We arrive at the answer as follows:

The term 'netted' refers to the seller's profits after deducting costs and commissions.

Hence we need to add back these amounts to arrive at the sale price.

                      Net Proceeds                                       $55,000

<u>Add:              Costs                                                          $1,000   </u>

                     Total                                                         $56,000  

The commission is 8.5%; however commissions are quoted as a percentage of sales price.

Expressed in other words, if the sale price was 100, commissions were 8.5. That would mean that the total above would be the equivalent of 100 - 8.5 = 91.5

From this we can arrive at the sale price as follows:

Sales Price = \frac{56000 * 100}{91.5}

Sales Price = 61,202
