The main disadvantage of open-source software is not being straightforward to use. Open-source operating systems like Linux cannot be learned in a day. They require effort and possibly training from your side before you are able to master them. You may need to hire a trained person to make things easier, but this will incur additional costs.

In the Business Loan worksheet, enter the data values and formulas required to calculate the monthly payment on a business loan
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Monthly Payment: $1,879

Annual Payment: $13,975

Explanation:

To find the answer, we will use the present value of an annuity formula:

The formula is:

PV = A (1 - (1 + i)^-n) / i

Where:

  • PV = Present value of the investment (in this case, of the loan)
  • A = Value of the annuity (will be our incognita)
  • i = interest rate
  • n = number of compounding periods

The reason why we use this formula is because both the annual payments, and the monthly payments are annuities: payments that have regular time intervals, and have the same interest rate, which means that the value of each payment is the same.

To find the monthly payment, we first convert the annual interest rate of 6.2% to a monthly rate. The result is a 0.5% monthly rate.

Next, the number of compounding periods changes, because the monthly rate compounds each month, not once every year. For these reason, we use the number of months that there are in 15 years, which is 180 months (15 x 12 = 180).

Third, we divide the interest rate by 100 to obtain the decimal value: 0.5 / 100 = 0.005

Finally, we plug the correct amounts into the formula:

225,000 = X (1 - (1 + 0.005)^-180) / 0.005

225,000 = X (118.5)

225,000 / 118.5 = X

1,899 = X

Now, for the annual payment, we simply use the annual rate of 6.2% (divided by 100) instead of the monthly rate, and the compounding periods are now 15 years, instead of 180 months:

225,000 = X (1 - (1 + 0.062)^-15 / 0.062

225,000 = X (16.1)

225,000 / 16.1 = X

13,975 = X

You bought one of Great White Shark Repellant Co.’s 8 percent coupon bonds one year ago for $1,044. These bonds make annual paym
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

17.4%

Explanation:

original purchase price 1 year ago = $1,044

current market price:

0.06 = {80 + [(1,000 - MV)/13]} /  [(1,000 + MV)/2]

0.06 x [(1,000 + MV)/2] = 80 + [(1,000 - MV)/13]

0.06 x (500 + 0.5MV) = 80 + 76.92 - 0.0769MV

30 + 0.03MV = 156.92 - 0.0769MV

0.1069MV = 126.92

MV = 126.92 / 0.1069 = $1,187.28

total returns during the year = $80 (coupon) + ($1,187.28 - $1,044) = $223.28

nominal return on investment = $223.28 / $1,044 = 21.387%

real return on investment = [(1 + i) / (1 + inflation)] - 1 = [(1 + 0.21387) / (1 + 0.034)] - 1 = 1.174 - 1 = 0.174 = 17.4%

In each of the following cases, calculate the accounting break-even and the cash break-even points. Ignore any tax effects in ca
Sloan [31]

Answer:

Accounting Break-Even

Case 1 = $14,350   Case 2 = $8,485.71    Case 3 = $214.375

Cash Break-Even

Case 1 = $11,766.67    Case 2 = $1342.86     Case 3 = $168.75

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

Accounting Break-Even = (Fixed Cost + Depreciation Cost) ÷ (Price Unit -Variable Unit)

Case 1 - ($7,060,000 + $1,550,000) ÷ ($3075 - $2,475)

= $8,610,000 ÷ $600

= $14,350

Case 2 - ( $47,000 + $250,000) ÷ ($96 - $61)

= $297,000 ÷ 35 = $8,485.71

Case 3 - ($2,700 + $730) ÷ ($21 - $5)

= $3,430 ÷ $16 = $214.375

Cash Break Even = Fixed Cost ÷ (Price Unit - Variable Unit)

Case 1 - $7,060,000 ÷ ($3075 - $2,475)

= $7,060,000 ÷ $600

= $11,766.67

Case 2 - $47,000 ÷ ($96 - $61)

= $47,000 ÷ $35 = $1342.86

Case 3 - $2,700 ÷ ($21 - $5)

= $2,700 ÷ $16 = $168.75

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

annual rate of interest =  9.01 %

Explanation:

given data

future value = $345,000

present value = $73,000

time period = 18 years

to find out

annual rate of interest

solution

we get here annual rate of interest that is express as

annual rate of interest = (\frac{future\ value}{present\ value})^{\frac{1}{t} } - 1      ..................................1

put here value and we get annual rate of interest that is

annual rate of interest =  (\frac{345000}{73000})^{\frac{1}{18} }  - 1          

annual rate of interest =  9.01 %
