Answer:

The the largest loan this buyer can afford is 14,533.75.

Explanation:

This can be determined using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

Step 1: Calculations of the present value or the loan the buyer can afford for a 30 year loan at 5 1/2%

PV30 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV30 = Present value or the loan the buyer can afford for a 30 year loan at 5 1/2% =?

P = monthly payment = 1000

r = interest rate = 5 1/2% = 5.50% = 0.055

n = number of years = 30

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

PV30 = 1000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.055))^30) / 0.055)

PV30 = 1000 * 14.5337451711221

PV30 = 14,533.75

Step 2: Calculation of the present value or the loan the buyer can afford for a 20 year loan at 4 1/2%

PV20 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (2)

Where;

PV30 = Present value or the loan the buyer can afford for a 20 year loan at 4 1/2% =?

P = monthly payment = 1000

r = interest rate = 4 1/2% = 4.50% = 0.045

n = number of years = 20

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

PV20 = 1000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.045))^20) / 0.045)

PV20 = 1000 * 13.0079364514537

PV20 = 13,007.94

Conclusion

Since 14,533.75 which is the present value or the loan the buyer can afford for a 30 year loan at 5 1/2% is greater than the 13,007.94 which is the present value or the loan the buyer can afford for a 20 year loan at 4 1/2%, it therefore implies that the the largest loan this buyer can afford is 14,533.75.

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer: $770.22

Explanation:

If she makes equal contributions then those would be annuities. The $9,000 she wants to have will be the future value of the amount currently in her account and the annuity.

9,000 = 5,000 ( 1 + r) ^ n + ( annuity * future value interest factor of an annuity, 9%,  3 years)

9,000 = 5,000 ( 1 + 9%) ^ 3 + ( Annuity * 3.2781)

9,000 = 6,475.145‬ + 3.2781 * Annuity

Annuity  = (9,000 - 6,475.145‬) / 3.2781

Annuity = $770.22

What problems could develop if the us became too dependent on other nations for goods and services
xeze [42]

Answer:

TRADE DEFICIT

FOREIGN CURRENCY RESERVE DEPLETION

LOCAL CURRENCY DEVALUATION

RECESSION

POTENTIAL UNEMPLOYMENT

Explanation:

The problem that could develop if the U.S. became too dependent on other nations for goods and services are:

1. Trade deficit because when a country imports more than it exports it runs a trade deficit.

2. Foreign Currency Reserve Depletion: If the U.S. has to import so much from other countries, it will need to increase its foreign reserve because that is how it will pay for such imports. Otherwise the foreign reserve will be hugely depleted

3. Local Currency Devaluation. Reliance on exports can devalue the worth of the local currency because the demand of the foreign currency will be high in relation to local currency and people will be willing to pay more to get foreign currency, which will devalue the local currency

4. Recession: If the United States is reliant on OPEC countries for Oil and an embargo is placed on oil export from those, the U.S. will suffer a recession.

5. Potential Unemployment: Imports of finished goods will cripple local industries who will be forced to compete with the international firms whose goods and services are being imported; and those employed in such industries might loose their jobs, if the small local enterprises are unable to survive such competition.

The weight of the common stock as it relates to the firm's weighted average cost of capital is <u>35%</u>.

<h3>What is the weighted average cost of capital?</h3>

The weighted average cost of capital computes a firm's cost of capital based on the firm's average cost of capital from all sources: common stock, preferred stock, bonds, and other forms of debt.

The weight of the common stock can be determined by dividing the common stock market value by the total capitalization from all sources.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Outstanding:

Bonds payable = $1,590,000 (1,500 x $1,060)

Preferred stock = $160,000 (5,000 x $32)

Common stock = $936,000 (36,000 x $26)

Total debts and equity = $2,686,000

Weight of common stock = 35% ($936,000/$2,686,000 x 100)

Thus, the weight of the common stock as it relates to the firm's weighted average cost of capital is <u>35%</u>.

SHAPE magazine is targeted at young women seeking healthier lifestyles. At a price of $3 per copy, 1.25 million copies are sold.
Lerok [7]

Answer:

A. $ 3,750,000

Explanation:

Given that

At lower price

A copy is $3

Copies sold = 1.25 million

Recall that

Total revenue = Price of good × quantity of goods sold.

That is, the total amount of money a seller obtains by selling goods or/and services to a buyer(s)

Thus

Total revenue at low cost

= 3 × 1.25 million

= 3.75 million

= $3,750,000
