Answer:

From year one to year two, there is (Deflation,Inflation) at an annual rate of _12.5____%. In year one, $40.00 will buy ____5____ baskets, and in year two, $40.00 will buy ___5.7 (6)____ baskets. This example illustrates that, as the price level falls, the value of money:_increases___

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

The price of a basket of goods in year one = $8.00

The price of the same basket of goods in year two = $7.00

Difference in price (reduction in price) = $1 ($8 - $7)

Percentage reduction in price = $1/$8 * 100 = 12.5%

With $40/8, 5 baskets were bought

With $40/7, 5.7 baskets will be bought

b) Economists are always wary of prolonged deflation or continuous general falling prices of goods because it depicts an economy that is seriously weakening at its foundation.  As a fallout, companies slow production, reduce output, lay off workers, and reduce salaries (earned income).

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

$415,000

Explanation:

Following is the formula for cash flow:

<em>Ending Cash Balance = CFO + CFI + CFF + Beginning Cash Balance</em>

<em>CFO = Cash flow from operating activities</em>

<em>CFI = Cash flow from investing activities</em>

<em>CFF = Cash flow from financing activities</em>

We can easily rearrange the formula to find CFO

<em>Ending Cash Balance - CFI - CFF - Beginning Cash Balance = CFO </em>

<em>or </em>

<em>CFO = Ending Cash Balance - CFI - CFF - Beginning Cash Balance</em>

<u>Solution</u>

CFO=105000-(-250000)-(-150000)-90000

<em>CFO = $415,000</em>

What is a PreQualification in Mortgage Processing

Because most persons who are interested in buying a home do not have hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash to purchase the home of their dreams, the concept of mortgage is to approach a lender who will then advance the needed sum for the purchase and then the borrower will pay the advanced sum over some time (most times up to 30 years) at an interest rate.

A PreQualification is a process through which the lender evaluates the creditworthiness of the borrower and also decide the amount of loan the borrower is entitled to. This is done through the financial documents and records made available to the lender by the borrower

One important takeaway from a prequalification is that it is an approximation of what a borrower is entitled to base solely on the information given to the lender. It is, therefore, an approximation which can be less or more when the official application for the loan is submitted.

As stated in the question, getting a prequalification helps Matt to identify and understand the areas of problems and credit report errors that may arise and then he can use the prequalification information to attend to these errors and ensure a proper application is submitted that will allow him to maximise the amount of loan that can be made available to him.

Once Matt has corrected errors and identified problems that may arise on his mortgage application, he then gathers the relevant document and goes for the first formal process in mortgage processing which is the preapproval.

aniked [119]

Answer:

$24,990

Explanation:

2/15 net 45 means that if the customer pays within the period of 15 days, he will get the discount of 2% of invoice amount, otherwise he has to pay the whole amount of invoice within the period of 45 days.

In the given scenario, since the Pound Co. has paid the invoice within the discount period, so therefore, the Pound Co. has availed the discount of 2% and accordingly the sales amount shall be recorded as follows:

Sales amount=Invoice amount*98%

                       =$25,500*98%

                       =$24,990
