Answer:

11%

Explanation:

Interest rate is considered to be composed of following components:

- Real risk free interest rate

- Inflation premium*

- Default risk premium

- Liquidity premium

- Maturity premium

Based on above, interest rate (r) is equal to:

r = real risk free interest rate + Inflation premium + Default risk premium + liquidity premium + maturity premium

In our example, assuming that Lola has computed 6% as total of all components except for inflation premium, so total she should charge 11% (6% + 5% inflation premium).

*Inflation premium pays off for expected inflation over the period of loan.

We are evaluating a project that costs $1.68 million, has a six-year life, and has no salvage value. Assume that depreciation is
zvonat [6]

Answer:

                              Best-Case        Worst-Case

                                  NPV                     NPV

PV of cash inflows $2,897,706      $3,187,477

PV of project cost  $1,680,000     $1,848,000 ($1,680,000 * 1.1)

NPV                         $1,217,706    $1,339,477

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Initial project cost = $1.68 million

Project's estimated life = 6 years

Salvage value = $0

Depreciation expense = $280,000 ($1.68 million/6)

Income Statement:

Sales revenue (90,000 * $37.95) = $3,415,500

Cost of goods sold:

Variable cost (90,000 * $23.20) =    2,088,000

Gross profit =                                    $1,327,500

Fixed costs =                                         815,000

Income before tax =                           $512,500

Income tax (21% of $512,500) =          107,625

Net income =                                     $404,875

Add depreciation expense                280,000

Annual cash inflows =                      $684,875

PV annuity factor for 6 years at 11% = 4.231

PV of annual cash inflows of $684,875= $2,897,706 ($684,875 * 4.231)

Annual cash inflows = $753,363 ($684,875 * 1.1)

PV of annual cash inflows of $753,363 = $3,187,477 ($753,363 * 4.231)

Tom and cindy lewis are buying a house with a $300,000 sales price and their ltv will be 80%. assume that they paid no originati
dlinn [17]

Answer: Tom and Cindy paid 1.5 discount points.

House Value = $300,000.

Loan-to-Value Ratio (LTV) = 80%

Since LTV is 80%, the total loan (mortgage) value is :

Mortgage Value = House Value * LTV

Mortgage Value = $240,000 (300,000*0.80)

In the real estate context, a point refers to one percent (1%) of the mortgage amount. There is no rule that these points should be in whole numbers.

We can find the number of points paid as follows:

No. of points paid = (Value of points in dollars /Value of mortgage) *100

No. of points paid = (\frac{3600}{240000} )* 100 [/tex][tex] No. of points paid = 1.5 points.

There are two types of points:

  1. Discount Points: are actually pre-paid interest on the mortgage loan, and help in lowering the interest rate on the mortgage.
  2. Origination points : help in covering the costs incurred by the lender in processing the loan.

Suire Corporation is considering dropping product D14E. Data from the company's accounting system appear below: Sales $ 670,000
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

a. According to the company's accounting system, what is the net operating income earned by product D14E? (Net losses should be indicated by a minus sign.)

  • net loss -$65,000

b. What would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) of dropping product D14E? Should the product be dropped?

  • financial disadvantage of discontinuing the produce is -$68,000, so the company should not discontinue the product since its losses would increase

Explanation:

total sales $670,000

- variable expenses $295,000

- fixed manufacturing expenses $246,000

- fixed selling and administrative expenses $194,000

net loss = $65,000

if product D14E is discontinued, $196,000 + $111,000 = $307,000, of fixed expenses can be avoided, but $133,000 are not avoidable. if the company discontinues the product, its losses will increase by $133,000 - $65,000 = $68,000
