At the beginning of each of her four years in college, Miranda took out a new Stafford loan. Each loan had a principal of $5,500

, an interest rate of 7.5% compounded monthly, and a duration of ten years. Miranda paid off each loan by making constant monthly payments, starting with when she graduated. All of the loans were subsidized. What is the total lifetime cost for Miranda to pay off her 4 loans? Round each loan's calculation to the nearest cent.

Each year she took a loan of 5500 so after 4 years in college she took out a total of
5500×4 years=22000

Now use the formula of the present value of an annuity ordinary to find the monthly payments to pay off this loan
The formula is
Pv=pmt [(1-(1+r/k)^(-kn))÷(r/k)]
Pv present value 22000
PMT monthly payment?
R interest rate 0.075
K compounded monthly 12
N time 10 years
Solve the formula for PMT
PMT=pv÷[(1-(1+r/k)^(-kn))÷(r/k)]
PMT=22,000÷((1−(1+0.075÷12)^(
−12×10))÷(0.075÷12))
=261.1439

The total lifetime cost for Miranda to pay off her 4 loans is the monthly payment times to 12 months times to 10 years
261.1439×12×10=31,337.27

So the answer is 31337.27
Hope it helps!

Optimization using total value calculates ________.
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Optimization using total value calculates the total value of each feasible option and then picks the option with the highest total value.

Optimization using marginal analysis calculates the change in total value when a person switches from one feasible option to another, and the uses these marginal comparisons to choose the option with the highest total value.

Both gives identical answers.

Optimization can be implemented using many different techniques.

One of it, is Total value total benefit - total cost (net benefit).

It translate all cost and benefits into common units, like dollar per month.

Calculate the total net benefit of each alternative.

Pick the alternative with the highest net benefit.

The president does not want to change the selling price. Instead, he wants to increase the sales commission by $1.70 per unit. H
Natalija [7]

Feather Friends, Inc., distributes a high-quality wooden birdhouse that sells for $80 per unit. Variable expenses are $40.00 per unit, fixed expenses total $200,000 per year. Its operating results for last year were as follows:

Sales $2,160,000

Variable expenses $1,080,000

Contribution margin $1,080,000

Fixed expenses $200,000

Net operating income $ 880,000

Answer:

$732,625

Explanation:

The contribution per unit is:

Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit - Sales commission per unit

Contribution per unit = $80 - $40 - $1.7 = $38.3 per unit

The increase in advertisement expense can be calculated under the new condition by the following formula:

New Sales ($) = (Fixed cost + Profit) * Sales Prices per unit  / Contribution Per unit

By putting values we have:

$2,160,000 * 125% = (Fixed cost + $360,000)* $80 per unit / $38.3 per unit

$2,700,000 * $38.3 per unit / $80 per unit  = Fixed Cost + $360,000

$1,292,625 - $360,000 = Fixed Cost

Fixed Cost = $932,625

This means that the maximum amount of increase in the advertisement expense would be $732,625 to earn a profit of $360,000

York’s outstanding stock consists of 80,000 shares of cumulative 7.5% preferred stock with a $5 par value and also 200,000 share
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Dividend Each Year shall be

Year                2015          2016           2017           2018

Preference    $20,000    $28,000    $42,000    $30,000

Equity             $0              $0             $158,000    $320,000

Total Dividend

Preference = $120,000

Equity = $478,000

Explanation:

When the preference dividends are cumulative in nature the dividends shall be paid each year of the rate specified, in case not paid the, it is carried forward.

In the given case, preference dividend = 80,000 shares \times $5 \times 7.5% = $30,000

<u>Thus, in 2015</u>

Dividend to preference = $20,000

Dividend to Equity = $0

Also $30,000 - $20,000 = $10,000 shall be carried forward.

<u>2016</u>

Dividend to preference = $10,000 Arrears

Current year = $28,000 - $10,000 = $18,000

Carry forward = $30,000 - $18,000 = $12,000

Dividend to Equity = $0

<u>2017</u>

Dividend to preference = $12,000 Arrears

Current year = $30,000

Dividend to Equity = $200,000 - $30,000 - $12,000 = $158,000

<u>2018</u>

Dividend to preference = $30,000

Dividend to Equity = $350,000 - $30,000 = $320,000
