What is the maximum amount each woman can spend on a home, assuming she uses her accumulated investment account to make a 20% down payment?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Mary Kate: $103,528.15

Ashley: $135,377.97

Dakota: $166,294.24

Elle: $187,409.00

Explanation:

Mary Kate

First, calculate the future value of investment

Future value of Investment = Annuity payment x ( 1 + Interst rate )^numbers of years - 1 / Interst rate = $3,900 x ( 1 + 3% )^5 - 1 / 3% = $20,705.63

Amount affordable = Future value of investment / Rate of down payment = $20,705.63 / 20% = $103,528.15

Ashley

First, calculate the future value of investment

Future value of Investment = Annuity payment x ( 1 + Interst rate )^numbers of years - 1 / Interst rate = $4,900 x ( 1 + 5% )^5 - 1 / 5% = $27,075.59

Amount affordable = Future value of investment / Rate of down payment = $27,075.59 / 20% = $135,377.97

Dakota

First, calculate the future value of the investment

Future value of Investment = Annuity payment x ( 1 + Interst rate )^numbers of years - 1 / Interst rate = $5,900 x ( 1 + 6% )^5 - 1 / 6% = $33,258.85

Amount affordable = Future value of investment / Rate of down payment = $33,258.85 / 20% = $166,294.24

Elle

First, calculate the future value of the investment

Future value of Investment = Annuity payment x ( 1 + Interst rate )^numbers of years - 1 / Interst rate = $5,900 x ( 1 + 12% )^5 - 1 / 12% = $37,481.80

Amount affordable = Future value of investment / Rate of down payment = $37,481.80 / 20% = $187,409.00

Suppose that a bank has ​$80 in checkable​ deposits, reserves of ​$15 ​, and a reserve requirement of​ 10%. Also assume that the the bank suffers a ​$6 deposit outflow. If the bank chooses to borrow from the Fed to meet its reserve​ requirement, then the bank would need to borrow ​$nothing . ​(Round your response to the nearest two decimal​ place.)

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the amount of borrowing that's required will be:

= [ rr * ( D - O)] - (R-O)

where,

rr = reserve requirement = 10% = 0.1

D = checkable deposits = $80

R = reserves = $15

O = deposits outflow = $6

= [ 0.10 × ($80 - $6)] - ($15 - $6)

= [ 0.10 × $74 ] - $9

= $7.4 - $9

= -$1.60

The New Fund had average daily assets of $2.2 billion in the past year. New Fund's expense ratio was 1.1% and the management fee was .7%.a. What were the total fees paid to the fund's investment managers during the year?b. What were the other administrative expenses?

Answers

Answer: A. $15.4 Million

B. $8.8 million

Explanation:

a. What were the total fees paid to the fund's investment managers during the year?

This will be:

= Average daily assets × Management fee

= $2.2 billion × 0.7%

= $15.4 million

b. What were the other administrative expenses?

The total expense that's incurred for managing the fund will be:

= $2.2 billion × 1.1%

Kevin Morales invests $15,451.93 now for a series of $2,900 annual returns beginning one year from now. Kevin will earn a return of 12% on the initial investment.

(For calculation purposes, use 5 decimal places as displayed in the factor table provided.)

How many annual payments of $2,900 will Kevin receive?

In a bid to determine the number of annual payments of $2,900 that Kevin would receive, we can make use of a financial calculator bearing in mind that the calculator would be set to its default end mode before making the below inputs and that the amount invested today is the present value of annual payments

PMT=2900(amount of each annual payment)

I/Y=12(the rate of interest to be earned annually without the "%" sign)

On January 1, 2019, Wasson Company purchased a delivery vehicle costing $36,500. The vehicle has an estimated 6-year life and a $3,500 residual value. What is the vehicle's book value as of December 31, 2020, assuming Wasson uses the straight-line depreciation method

Answers

Answer:

Book value= $25,500

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $36,500

Residual value= $3,500

Useful life= 6 years

First, we need to calculate the annual depreciation:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (36,500 - 3,500) / 6

Annual depreciation= $5,500

Now, the accumulated depreciation and book value:

Accumulated depreciation= 5,500*2= $11,000

Book value= 36,500 - 11,000

Book value= $25,500

You are planning to put $3,500 in the bank at the end of each year for the next four years in hopes that you will have enough money for a down payment on a condo. If you are investing at an annual interest rate of 5%, you'll have accumulated ___________ at the end of four years.

You decided to deposit your money in the bank at the beginning of the year instead of the end of the same year, but now you are making payments of $2,500 at an annual interest rate of 6%. How much money will you have available at the end of seven years?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Annual deposit (A)= $3,500

Number of periods (n)= 4 years

Interest rate (i)= 5%

To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {3,500*[(1.05^4) - 1]} / 0.05

FV= $15,085.44

Now, the deposit is at the beginning:

Annual deposit (A)= $2,500

Number of periods (n)= 7 years

Interest rate (i)= 6%

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i + {[A*(1+i)^n]-A}

FV= {2,500*[(1.06^7) - 1]} / 0.06 + {[2,500*(1.06)^7] - 2,500}

FV= 20,984.59 + 1,259.08

FV= $22,243.67

Mehta Company traded a used welding machine (cost $9,000, accumulated depreciation $3,000) for office equipment with an estimated fair value of $5,000. Mehta also paid $3,000 cash in the transaction. Prepare the journal entry to record the exchange. (The exchange has commercial substance.)

Answers

Answer:

Debit : Office Equipment at Fair Value $5,000

Debit : Accumulated depreciation - Welding machine  $3,000

Debit : Profit and Loss $4,000

Credit  : Cash $3,000

Credit  : Cost of Welding Machine $9,000

Explanation:

If the exchange has commercial substance, the assets acquired is deemed to have a cost equal to the Fair Value of Asset given up.

Thus Fair Value of Asset given up (Welding Machine) is $5,000. This becomes the Cost of the New Asset - Office Equipment.

The Cost and Accumulated depreciation of the Old Asset are derecognized by Crediting and Debiting the respective Accounts. Also Cash advanced is recognized.

This journal calculates the Profit or Loss on the Exchange as $4,000 (loss).

Waterways is thinking of mass-producing one of its special-order sprinklers. To do so would increase variable costs for all sprinklers by an average of $0.70 per unit. The company also estimates that this change could increase the overall number of sprinklers sold by 10%, and the average sales price would increase $0.20 per unit. Waterways currently sells 481,000 sprinkler units at an average selling price of $25.20. The manufacturing costs are $5,811,160 variable and $2,155,660 fixed. Selling and administrative costs are $2,673,680 variable and $798,370 fixed. If Waterways begins mass-producing its special-order sprinklers, how would this affect the company

Answers

Answer:

Waterways Corporation

If Waterways begins mass-producing its special-order sprinklers, its net operating income would almost double, increasing by $680,202.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Increase in variable costs per unit = $0.70

Increase in number of sprinklers sold = 10%

Increase in average sales price = $0.20

Current sales = 481,000 sprinkler units

Selling price = $25.20

New selling price = $25.40 ($25.20 + $0.20)

New quantity of sprinkler units = 529,100 (481,000 * 1.1)

Increase in variable cost = $370,370 (529,100 * $0.70)

New variable cost = $6,181,530 ($5,811,160 + $370,370)

Logan owns a horse ranch. Logan dislikes horses, but he opened the ranch because he heard it was a lucrative business and he wanted to make money. Logan’s horse ranch has lost money every year for the past 5 years (including this year), but Logan has made some changes to business operations, including hiring a consultant and increasing his prices. Logan anticipates that as a result of these changes, his horse ranch will generate a profit in the next year or two. This year, Logan hired his brother, Luke, to work at the horse ranch. Logan pays Luke $500/hr to clean the horse stalls. Logan also hired his best friend, Lucy, to do Logan’s grocery shopping and other personal errands. He pays Lucy $15/hr. Which of the following is most accurate?

a. Logan cannot deduct any of the costs associated with the horse ranch because the horse ranch would be classified as a hobby, not a business
b. Logan can deduct the full salary paid to Luke because Luke works in Logan’s horse ranch business
c. Logan can deduct the full salary paid to Lucy because the amount of the expense is reasonable
d. Logan can deduct the full salary paid to Lucy because grocery shopping is ordinary and necessary
e. None of the above are correct

Answers

Answer:

Logan Horse Ranch

The most accurate is:

e. None of the above are correct

Explanation:

Logan's payment to his brother, Luke, of $500 per hour, is not a reasonable business expense that can be deductible.  Surely, $500 per hour is not a going rate for cleaning the horse stalls per hour.  With Lucy doing grocery shopping for Logan, it does not resonate like an ordinary and necessary expense for the business. Therefore, options A to D are not correct.  This leaves only option E as the most accurate.

e. Purchased $470 of supplies for cash.
f. Cash sales for the month, $8,750.
g. Billed credit customers $14,200 for monthly services.

Answers

Answer:

Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity = $67,800

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the Effect of Each Transaction on the Three Basic Accounting Elements.

From attached excel file, the resulting accounting equation can be computed as follows

Assets = Total Cash + Total Insurance Prepaid + Total Van + Total  Supplies + Total Accounts Receivable = $17,380 + $750 + $35,000 + $470 + $14,200 = $67,800

Liabilities = Total Accounts Payable = $30,000

Owner’s Equity  = Total Capital + Total Retained earnings = $16,500 + $21,300 = $37,800

Liabilities + Owner’s Equity = $30,000 + $37,800 = $67,800

Therefore, we have:

Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity = $67,800
