Triss [41]

Answer: Degree of Operating Leverage

A Tech = 2.75

Z Tech = 3

Explanation:

As defined in question itself,

Degree of Operating Leverage = $1 + \frac{fixed\ cost}{Profit}$

As here, it is provided that profit for both the companies are same amounting $4 million.

Although the fixed cost differ by $1 million.

A Tech Degree of operating Leverage = 1 + $\frac{7,000,000}{4,000,000}$ = 2.75

Z Tech Degree of Operating Leverage = 1 + $\frac{8,000,000}{4,000,000}$ = 3

This clearly demonstrates that A Tech will reach its break even faster than the Z Tech as the ratio of fixed cost to variable cost is lower in A tech in comparison to Z Tech.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

<u>Giselle should purchase points</u> to lower the interest rate of the mortage, this will make the cuota decrease.

Explanation:

163000 x20% = 32,600

163,000 - 32,600 = 130,040

current mortgage cuota:

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

$C \times \frac{1-(1+0.0625/12)^{-30*12} }{0.0625/12} = 130,040\\$

C= 800.68

800.68/ 2,986 = 0.2681 = 26.81%

this cuota exeeds the desired amount Giselle wants.

her couta can be as much as 2,986 x 25% = 746.5

<u>Giselle should purchase points</u> to lower the interest rate of the mortage, this will make the cuota decrease.

What statement about minimum payments is incorrect

Oksana_A [137]

"If you send in the minimum payment, you will be charged a late fee."

This is an INCORRECT statement, because you will not be charged a late fee just for making the minimum payment. Minimum payments are not a good idea because you will be charged interest on the remaining amount and will have a harder time paying off the balance, but you will not be charged a late fee.
