Alja [10]

Answer:

a. The monthly payment on loan 1 is $76.03.

b. The monthly payment on loan 2 is $411.69.

Explanation:

a. Calculate the monthly payment on loan 1.

To determine the amount of periodic payments, the present value of annuity formula should be used:

$PV=P(\frac{1-(1+r)^{-n} }{r} )$

Where:

PV= present value

p=periodic payment

i=rate of interest

n=number of periods

We get the data for this exercise:

PV= 3,600 (loan).

p= unknown (we must find this value)

i= 6.6% or 0.066. However, because we need to know the monthly payment, the interest rate should be divided by 12 (0.066 / 12).

n= 4 years and 7 months, that is 55 months.

And we replace in the formula:

$3600=P(\frac{1-(1+\frac{0.066}{12})^{-55} }{\frac{0.066}{12} } )$

$3600=P(\frac{1-(1+0.055)^{-55} }{0.0055} )$

$3600=P(\frac{1-(0.7395812268)}{0.0055} )$

$3600=P(\frac{0.2604187732}{0.0055} )$

$3600=P(47.348867)$

Therefore:

$P=\frac{3600}{47.348867}$

$P=76.03$

The monthly payment on loan 1 is $76.03.

b. Calculate the monthly payment on loan 2.

We get the data for this exercise:

PV= 11,600 (loan 2).

p= unknown (we must find this value)

i= 7.3% or 0.073. However, because we need to know the monthly payment, the interest rate should be divided by 12 (0.073 / 12).

n= 2 years and 7 months, that is 31 months.

And we replace in the formula:

$11600=P(\frac{1-(1+\frac{0.073}{12})^{-31} }{\frac{0.073}{12} } )$

$11600=P(\frac{1-(1+0.006083)^{-31} }{0.006083} )$

$11600=P(\frac{1-(0.8286047296)}{0.006083} )$

$11600=P(\frac{0.1713952704}{0.006083} )$

$11600=P(28.1761088936)$

Therefore:

$P=\frac{11600}{28.1761088936}$

$P=411.69$

The monthly payment on loan 2 is $411.69.

Finger [1]

Answer:

The answer is: $6,900

Explanation:

To determine how much the insurance company should charge, we must first calculate the amount of money they expect to pay:

total loss $200,000 x 0.002 = $400
50% loss $100,000 x 0.01 = $1,000
25% loss $50,000 x 0.1 = $5,000

Total $6,400

If the insurance company expects to pay $6,400 per year, they will have to charge $6,900 ($6,400 + $500) to cover their expenses and earn a $500 profit.

You determined the following information for Big Rapid's Supplies: It has a receivables turnover rate of 23.5 a payables turnove

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

35 days

Explanation:

Receivables turnover rate = 23.5

Payables turnover rate = 12.5

Inventory turnover rate = 19.15

Length of firm's operating cycle :

(Days sales in inventory + average collection period)

Days' sales in inventory = (365 days / inventory turnover ratio)

Days' sales in inventory = (365 / 19.15)

Days's sales in inventory = 18.717 days

Average collection period : (365 / accounts receivable turnover ratio)

Average collection period = (365 / 23.5)

Average collection period = 15.531

(18.717 + 15.531)

= 34.248

= 35 days
