Serhud [2]

Answer:

$636,364

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what The break-even point for Gardner Corporation for the current year is

First step is to calculate the Variable costs

Variable costs = $250,000 + $150,000 + $75,000 + $200,000

Variable costs = $675,000

Second step is to calculate the Contribution margin ratio

Contribution margin ratio = (Sales - Variable costs) / Sales

Contribution margin ratio= ($1,500,000 - $675,000) / $1,500,000

Contribution margin ratio= 0.55*100

Contribution margin ratio = 55%

Now let calculate the Break-even point

Break-even point = Fixed costs / Contribution margin ratio

Break-even point= ($100,000 + $250,000) / 0.55

Break-even point = $636,364

Therefore The break-even point (rounded to the nearest dollar) for Gardner Corporation for the current year is:$636,364

You are ready to buy a house, and you have $20,000 for a down payment and closing costs. Closing costs are estimated to be 4% of

Bess [88]

Answer:

So we can offer for the house $180119.95

Explanation:

Monthly income =$4000

Monthly mortgage payment allowed (P)= 25% of 4000= $1000

Interest rate per month (i)= 0.5%

Number of months in total (n)= 30*12= 360

Maximum loan affordable = P*(1-(1/(1+i)^n))/i

=1000*(1-(1/(1+0.5%)^360))/0.5%

=$166791.61

Closing cost is 4% of loan value = 166791.61*4% =$6671.66

Balance Amount left for down payment = 20000-6671.66

=$13328.34

It means we can pay $6671.66 for closing cost of Loan and $13328.34 for down payment.

Cost of house paid maximum = Down payment + Affordable loan

=13328.34+166791.61

=$180119.95

So we can offer for the house $180119.95
