Assume year 1 is 2019 and by the beginning of year 4, the Sanchezes have paid down the principal amount of the loan to $500,000.

In year 4, they borrow an additional $100,000 through a loan secured by the home in order to finish their basement. The new loan carries a 7 percent interest rate and is termed a "home equity loan" by the lender. What amount of interest can the Sanchezes deduct on the $100,000 loan?

Answer: $7,000

Explanation:

Interest deduction is allowed by the IRS if the loan was taken to improve the home. However, for married couples, only loans below the $750,000 limit can have their interest deducted.

The Sanchezes have paid off $500,000 of the principal of their previous loan so we will assume that was enough to get this new loan under the $750,000 limit.

Allowable interest deduction will therefore be:

= 100,000 * 7%

= $7,000

natima [27]

Answer:

D. 76.6 %

Explanation:

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales × 100

<em>First Calculate the Contribution</em>

Contribution = Sales - Variable Costs

                     = (60,000 units × $ 12.40) -  ($110,000+$30,000+$34,000)

                     = $744,000 - $174,000

                     = $570,000

<em>Then Calculate Contribution Margin Ratio</em>

Contribution Margin Ratio = $570,000 / $744,000 × 100

                                           = 76.61290

                                           = 76.6 % ( 1 decimal)

A $2,000 cash dividend is planned in 2019. No dividend was paid in 2018. 1,000 shares of 5% cumulative $10 par value preferred s
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

C) $1000

Explanation:

First lets calculate the cumulative preferred stock dividend for 2 years

(1000 * 10 ) * 5% = 500 / year

so for 2 years = $1000 since it is cumulative and not paid in one year is added to next year.

Total dividend payable = $2000

so for common stock whatever is left over is paid thus,

Common stock share = Total - Preferred cumulative = 2000 - 1000 = $1000

Hope that helps.
