Answer:
Close the $2,500 to Cost of Goods Sold
Explanation:
The under applied overhead is added to the Cost of Goods Sold amount.
The same amount would be debited to the cost of goods sold and the manufacturing overhead would be credited with the same amount that is $ 2500.
Under applied overhead means that the overhead actually incurred is more than the overhead planned of to be incurred. So we add back the amount by which it is less.
Zeke Company sells 26,900 units at $16 per unit. Variable costs are $9 per unit, and fixed costs are $38,100. The contribution margin ratio and the unit contribution margin, respectively, are
Answer:
Contribution margin ratio= 0.4375
Contribution margin= $7
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Zeke Company sells 26,900 units at $16 per unit. Variable costs are $9 per unit, and fixed costs are $38,100.
To calculate the contribution margin per unit, we need to use the following formula:
Contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost
Contribution margin= 16 - 9= $7
Now, we can calculate the contribution margin ratio:
Contribution margin ratio= contribution margin/ selling price
Contribution margin ratio= 7/16
Contribution margin ratio= 0.4375
Oriole Inc manufactures model airplanes and repair kits. The planes account for 75% of the sales mix, and the kits the remainder. The variable cost ratio for the planes is 80% and 65% for the kits. Fixed costs are $114000. Compute the breakeven point in sales dollars.
Answer:
Break-even point (dollars)= $480,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs are $114000.
Sales mix:
Planes= 0.75
Kits= 0.25
Contribution margin ratio:
Planes= 0.20
Kits= 0.35
To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (dollars)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin ratio
Weighted average contribution margin ratio= sales mix*contribution margin ratio
Weighted average contribution margin ratio= 0.75*0.2 + 0.25*0.35
Weighted average contribution margin ratio= 0.2375
Break-even point (dollars)= 114,000/0.2375
Break-even point (dollars)= $480,000
Fast-food restaurants like McDonald's are replacing cashiers with touch-screen ordering kiosks. Currently the MPL for an additional cashier is 48 customers served per hour and the MPK for an additional kiosk is 32 customers served per hour. A cashier can be hired for wage of $15; a kiosk rents for $12.
(a) Is Whataburger using the optimal cost-minimizing mix of cashiers and kiosks? Explain.
(b) What can Whataburger do to improve its mix of inputs – hire more cashiers or fewer? Rent more kiosks or fewer?
Answer:
a. Whataburger is not using the optimal cost-minimizaing mix of cashier and kiosks.
b. Whataburger should hire more cashier and rent fewer kiosks in order to improve its mix of inputs and minimize the cost
Explanation:
a. According to the given data we have the following:
Let "C" is a cashier.
"K" is a kiosk
MPC = 48 (Marginal Product of Cashier)
MPK = 32 (Marginal Product of Kiosk)
PC = $15 (cashier can be hired for a wage of $15)
PK = $12 (Kiosk rents for $12)
At optimal cost minimization point, (MPC / MPK) = (PC / PK)
(MPC / PC) = (MPK / PK)
(MPC / PC) = (48 / 15) = 3.2
(MPK / PK) = (32 / 12) = 2.67
Since the (MPC / PC) and (MPK / PK) is not equal. It implies Whataburger is not using the optimal cost-minimizaing mix of cashier and kiosks.
b. We have to use the following:
(MPC / PC) > (MPK / PK)
i.e., 3.2 > 2.67
It means Whataburger hire more cashier and rent fewer kiosks in order to improve its mix of inputs and minimize the cost.

"Donald is a 21-year-old full-time college student. During 2019, he earned $2,550 from a part-time job and $1,150 in interest income. If Donald is a dependent of his parents, what is his standard deduction amount
Answer:
His standard deduction amount would be of $ 2,900
Explanation:
In order to calculate his standard deducion amount If Donald is a dependent of his parents we would have to make the following calculation:
Since His earned income is more than $1,150, therefore, Standard Deduction would be= $2,550 + $350
Standard Deduction would be= $2,900
Therefore, If Donald is a dependent of his parents, his standard deduction amount would be of $ 2,900

Therefore, the Management has properly recorded the transaction.
The joural entry would be as follows:
Debit Credit
asset $100,000
note payable $100,000

You are an owner of a bakery, and you meet with other neighborhood bakery owners. In an attempt to increase sales, you collectively decide to lower prices by 10%. Which of the following are consequences of this price change?
A. The supply of fresh baked goods will decrease.
B. The quantity supplied of fresh baked goods will decrease.
C. Demand for processed baked goods will decrease.
D. The supply of fresh baked goods will increase.
E. The demand for fresh baked goods will not change.
F. The demand for fresh baked goods will increase.
Answer:
The quantity supplied of fresh baked goods will decrease ( B )
Demand for processed baked goods will decrease. ( C )
The demand for fresh baked goods will not change ( E )
Explanation:
When the neighbourhood bakery owners agree to lower prices of goods by 10% it will not have any effect on the demand for fresh baked goods hence the demand for fresh baked goods will not change because the demand for fresh baked goods have an in-elastic curve
Also since there is s drop in price the quantity supplied by the suppliers will decrease. while The demand for processed baked goods will decrease because of the substitute it has in fresh baked goods that just got its price slashed by 10%
Wings Co. budgeted $572,000 manufacturing direct wages, 2,500 direct labor hours, and had the following manufacturing overhead: Overhead Cost Pool Budgeted Overhead Cost Budgeted Level for Cost Driver Overhead Cost Driver Materials handling $ 196,000 4,900 pounds Weight of materials Machine setup 19,600 560 setups Number of setups Machine repair 1,600 32,000 machine hours Machine hours Inspections 16,500 330 inspections Number of inspections Requirements for Job #971 which manufactured 4 units of product: Direct labor 20 hours Direct materials 220 pounds Machine setup 30 setups Machine hours 16,700 machine hours Inspections 15 inspections The total overhead of Job #971 under the ABC costing is:
Answer:
Total allocated overhead= $11,435
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Materials handling $196,000 4,900 pounds
Machine setup $19,600 560 setups
Machine repair $1,600 32,000 machine hours
Inspections $16,500 330 inspections
Job 971
Direct labor 20 hours
Direct materials 220 pounds
Machine setup 30 setups
Machine hours 16,700 machine hours
Inspections 15 inspections
First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead rate for each activity:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Materials handling= 196,000/4,900= $40 per pound
Machine setup= 19,600/560= $35 per setup
Machine repair= 1,600/32,000= $0.05 per machine hour
Inspections= 16,500/330= $50 per inspection
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Materials handling= 40*220= 8,800
Machine setup= 35*30= 1,050
Machine repair= 0.05*16,700=835
Inspections= 50*15= 750
Total allocated overhead= $11,435

During the year, direct labor costs of $30,000 were incurred, manufacturing overhead totaled $42,000, materials purchased were $27,000, and selling and administrative costs were $22,000. Champagne sold 25,000 units of product during the year at a sales price of $5.00 per unit. What were the total manufacturing costs for the year assuming $2 comma 080 of indirect materials were used during the period?
Answer:
Using the models for total manufacturing cost that includes just direct labour costs, direct materials cost and overhead costs, total manufacturing cost = $99,000
Using the model that includes selling and administrative costs & indirect materials cost, total manufacturing cost = $123,080
Explanation:
Total manufacturing cost is a sum of the amount of cost incurred by a business to produce goods in a reporting period.
It usually consists of direct labour costs, direct materials cost and overhead costs.
In some models, the selling and administrative costs & cost of indirect materials are included.
Direct labour cost = $30,000
Manufacturing overhead costs = $42,000
Direct materials cost = $27,000
Total manufacturing cost = 30000 + 42000 + 27000 = $99,000
Selling and Administrative costs = $22,000
Indirect materials cost = $2,080
Total materials cost including selling and administrative costs & indirect materials cost = 99000 + 22000 + 2080 = $123,080

Melody and Todd are married and have employee wages of $250,000 each in 2019. They have no other income. How much additional 0.9% Medicare tax will Melody and Todd have to pay or receive as a refund when they file their 2019 income tax return?
Answer:
$1,350
Explanation:
The computation of the amount pay or received as a refund at the time of filing the income tax return for the year 2019 is shown below:
As we know that
The Medicare tax rate is 1.45% till $200,000
And, if it is above $200,000 than 2.35% is charged (1.45% + 0.9%)
Now
For individually calculated,
Melody = ($200,000 × 1.45%) + ($50,000 × 2.35%) = $4,075
Todd = ($200,000 × 1.45%) + ($50,000 × 2.35%) = $4,075
So, the total is
= $4,075 + $4,075
= $8,150
Now if they filling their joint return so
Total salary is $500,000 ($250,000 × 2)
Medicare upto $250,000 = $3,625 ($250,000 × 1.45%)
for remaining $250,000 = $5,875 ($250,000 × 2.35%)
So, the Total is
= $3,625 + $5,875
= $9,500
Now the refund is
= Joint return - individually return for each one
= $9,500 - $8,150
= $1,350
The RST Company makes 38,000 parts to be used in its main products. The cost per part at this activity level is:
Direct materials
$
6.50
Direct labor
$
6.60
Variable manufacturing overhead
$
3.75
Fixed manufacturing overhead
$
3.45
An outside supplier offered to supply RST Company this part at $18 per unit. If RST Company decides not to make the parts, there would be no other use for the production facilities and none of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost could be avoided. Direct labor is a variable cost. The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of buying these parts from the outside supplier rather than making them internally would be:
($186,200)
($87,400)
($43,700)
$87,400
Answer:
($43,700)
Explanation:
38,000 units produced:
Direct materials $ 6.50 Direct labor $6.60 Variable manufacturing overhead $3.75 Fixed manufacturing overhead $3.45total cost per unit = $20.30outside supplier offers parts at $18 per unit
fixed manufacturing overhead is unavoidable

Ferdinand’s employer will match 50% of his $250 monthly contributions to his 401(k). This means that Ferdinand’s employer will put 50% of $250 = $125 into Ferdinand’s 401(k) account each month in addition to Ferdinand’s $250. What a swell benefit
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the given question is shown below:-
Total Contributions = Monthly contribution + Amount invested in Ferdinand’s 401(k)
= $250 + $125
= $375
1. Future Value = PMT [((1 + r)n - 1) ÷ r
Future value = 375 × ((1 + 0.03 ÷ 12) × 12 × 40 - 1) ÷ (0.03 ÷ 12)
= $347,272
2. Ferdinand deposit = Given Amount × Total number of months in a year × Number of years
= $250 × 12 Months × 40 Years
= $120,000
3. The Amount put in by the employer = 50% of $250 ×Total number of months in a year × Number of years
= $125 × 12 Months × 40 Years
= $60,000
4. Interest = Future value - Ferdinand deposit - The Amount put in by the employer
= $347,272 - $120,000 - $60,000
= $167,272
We simply applied the above formulas

There are 100 used laptop g for sale on the market. 40% of them are in good condition, and the rest of them are broken, which is the common knowledge to the owners and the buyers. Owners of broken laptops are willing to sell them for $300. Owners of good used laptops are willing to sell them if the price is above $1600 but will keep them if the price is lower than $1600. There is a large number of potential buyers who are willing to pay $2000 for a good laptop and $600 for a broken laptop. Buyers can't tell good laptops from bad, but original owners know. In equilibrium, what could be the maximum price set for a broken laptop to be sold
Answer:
In equilibrium the maximum price set for a broken laptop to be sold is $600
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
It is given that 40% laptops are in good condition. This implies that 60% are in bad condition.
In ordert to calculate the maximum price set for a broken laptop to be sold we would have to calculate the expected price that the buyers will be willing to pay for a laptop as follows:
Expected price=0.60($2000)+0.40($600)
Expected price=$1,200+$240
Expected price=$1,440
As the owners of good laptops are willing to sell their laptops for $1,800, whis is more that $1,440, they will not sell their products.
This implies that only bad laptops are sold in the market. The willingless to pay for the bad laptops is $600
Therefore, In equilibrium the maximum price set for a broken laptop to be sold is $600

Monthly production costs for 1,090 units are as follows: Direct materials $46,000 Direct labor 10,500 Variable overhead costs 32,500 Fixed overhead costs 22,000 Total costs $111,000 It is estimated that 6% of the fixed overhead costs assigned to ACT30107 will no longer be incurred if the company purchases ACT30107 from the outside supplier. W.T Ginsburg Engine Company has the option of purchasing the part from an outside supplier at $94.75 per unit. If the company accepts the offer from the outside supplier, the monthly avoidable costs (costs that will no longer be incurred) total ________.
Answer:
Cost that will no longer be incurred = $90320
Explanation:
$
The relevant variable cost
= 46,000 + 10,500 + 32,500 $89,000
Cost of external supply
= 94.75 × 1090= $103,277.50
Increase in of purchase 14,277.50
Savings in fixed cost (6%× 22,000) ( 1320
Net increase in cost if purchased 12,957.50
Cost that will no longer be incurred = 89,000 +1320 = $90320
Cost that will no longer be incurred = $90320

Per capita real GDP was $28,900 in france in 2003, and $12,700 in korea. Assume the growth rates for each country remain the same.
1. Compute the doubling time for France’s per capita real GDP.
2. Compute the doubling time for Korea’s per capita real GDP.
3. What will France’s per capita real GDP be in 2045?
4. What will Korea’s per capita real GDP be in 2045?
Answer:
36.83 years
16.85 years
$63,710.88
$ 71,490.43
Explanation:
We can use the nper formula in excel to compute the doubling time for the capital real GDP of both countries
=nper(rate,pmt,-pv,fv)
FV is the future real GDP which $28,900*2=$57,800 for France while that of Korea is $25,400 ($12,700*2)
PV is the present real GDP
rate is the economic growth rate of 4.2% in Korea and 1.9% in France
France=nper(1.9%,0,-28900,57800)= 36.83
Korea=nper(4.2%,0,-12700,25400)= 16.85
In 2045 ,which is 42 years from now the real GDP are shown thus:
=fv(rate,nper,pmt,-pv)=fv(1.9%,42,0,-28900)=$63,710.88
=fv(rate,nper,pmt,-pv)=fv(4.2%,42,0,-12700)=$ 71,490.43
The Solow model predicts that, over time, real GDP in developing economies could potentially converge to the same level of real GDP as developed economies. Which of the following is not consistent with convergence?
a. Investors seeking to build new factories would likely build those factories in developing economies that have some political stability.
b. Developing nations should converge because they can take advantage of technological discoveries made by developed economies.
c. Over time, developing economies become richer, and developed economies become poorer, until they reach the same level of wealth.
d. Because investment in developing nations yields relatively greater returns, capital will flow into developing economies, leading to relatively greater economic gro
Answer: c. Over time, developing economies become richer, and developed economies become poorer, until they reach the same level of wealth.
Explanation:
The Solow model which is a neoclassical framework focuses on long term Economics and does indeed speak to the convergence of the Real GDPs of Developed Countries with that of Developing countries.
However, of all the options listed, Option C goes against the model because convergence cannot happen if the Developed Countries keep getting richer while Developing countries keep getting poorer. Should that happen, they will never get to the same level of wealth and indeed might end up on opposite sides of the wealth spectrum with Developed Countries being extremely wealthy and Developing countries being extremely poor.
For convergence to happen, the conditions in A, B and D are preferable as they can indeed bring about the said convergence.

A company uses the percent of sales method to determine its bad debts expense. At the end of the current year, the company's unadjusted trial balance reported the following selected amounts: Accounts receivable $ 345,000 debit Allowance for uncollectible accounts 700 debit Net Sales 790,000 credit All sales are made on credit. Based on past experience, the company estimates that 0.6% of net credit sales are uncollectible. What amount should be debited to Bad Debts Expense when the year-end adjusting entry is prepared?
Answer: $5,440
Explanation:
When using the percent of sales method to determine bad debts, the company estimates a percentage that it believes will results in uncollectible debt and then applies it to the sales/revenue figure. The figure that is calculated is then debited along with the debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful accounts to the Bad debts account for the year and credited to the Allowance for doubtful accounts.
This company estimates that they will have 0.6% of credit sales uncollectible.
There are also $790,000 in sales of which all are on credit.
The Uncollectible estimate is therefore,
= 790,000 * 0.6%
= $4,740
This figure is then added to the debit amount on the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts.
= 4,470 + 700
= $5,440
Note; A debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful debt account signifies that the bad debts were higher than anticipated the last time. This is why the figure is added to the current bad debts expense.
Berk Company produces three products: Tic, Tac, and Toe. Tic requires 160 machine setups, Tac requires 150 setups, and Toe requires 190 setups. Berk has identified an activity cost pool with allocated overhead of $32,000 for which the cost driver is machine setups. How much overhead is assigned to the Tic product?
Answer:
Overhead assigned to Tic= $10,240
Explanation:
Activity-based costing is a form of absorption costing where overheads are charged to product using cost drivers.
Under this method, overheads are first analyzed and categorized by the activities responsible for them and then charged to product based on the amount of benefits enjoyed using cost drivers.
Activity rate per driver is calculated as:
Activity overhead for the period / Total cost drivers for the period
Set -up activity overhead = $32,000
Total expected cost drivers for activity set up = sum of the set ups for the three products
Total set ups= 160 +150 + 190 = 500 set ups
Overhead rate per set up
= $32,000/500 set ups
= $64 per set up
Overhead assigned to Tic = Overhead rate per set up × No of setups for TIC
= $64 per setup ×160=$10,240
Overhead assigned to Tic= $10,240
Bandar Industries Berhad of Malaysia manufactures sporting equipment. One of the company’s products, a football helmet for the North American market, requires a special plastic. During the quarter ending June 30, the company manufactured 3,100 helmets, using 2,077 kilograms of plastic. The plastic cost the company $13,708. According to the standard cost card, each helmet should require 0.62 kilograms of plastic, at a cost of $7.00 per kilogram.
Required:
1. What is the standard quantity of kilograms of plastic (SQ) that is allowed to make 3,100 helmets?
2. What is the standard materials cost allowed (SQ × SP) to make 3,100 helmets?
3. What is the materials spending variance?
4. What is the materials price variance and the materials quantity variance? (For requirements 3 and 4, indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values. Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
1. 1,922
2. $13,454
3. $254 Unfavorable
4. 831 Favorable
$1,085 Unfavorable
Explanation:
1. The computation of standard quantity of kilograms of plastic is shown below:-
Standard quantity of kilograms allowed = Helmets manufactured × Required kilograms of plastic
= 3,100 × 0.62
= 1,922
2. The computation of standard materials cost allowed is shown below:-
Standard cost allowed for actual output = Standard quantity of kilograms allowed × Cost per kilogram
= 1,922 × $7
= $13,454
3. The computation of materials spending variance is shown below:-
Materials spending variance = Plastic cost - Standard cost allowed for actual output
= $13,708 - $13,454
= $254 Unfavorable
4. The computation of materials price variance and the materials quantity variance is shown below:-
Materials price variance = Plastic cost - (Plastic in kilograms × Cost per kilograms)
= $13,708 - (2,077 × $7)
= 831 Favorable
Materials quantity variance = Cost per kilograms × (Plastic in kilograms - Standard quantity of kilograms allowed)
= $7 × (2,077 - 1,922)
= $1,085 Unfavorable
So, we have applied the above formulas.

Technology transfer agreements: Select one: a. protect "distinctive" or "famous" marks from unauthorized uses only when confusion is likely to occur. b. permit a company to quickly penetrate a foreign market without incurring the substantial financial and legal risks associated with direct investment. c. prevent an intellectual property owner from granting to another the right to use protected technology in return for some form of compensation. d. assert that priority of trademark rights in the United States depends upon the priority of use anywhere else in the world.
Answer:
b. permit a company to quickly penetrate a foreign market without incurring the substantial financial and legal risks associated with direct investment.
Explanation:
Technology transfer agreements can be defined as a contractual agreement between two parties, the licensor (rightful owner of the patent or trademark) and lincesee, granting them the legal rights to use an intellectual property under the stated terms and conditions binding the contract.
An intellectual property is an embodiment of the creative work such as trademark, patent or copyright of an individual, usually an inventor.
Technology transfer agreements allows an intellectual property owner to license or grant to another the right to use its protected technology in return for some form of compensation and permit a company to quickly penetrate a foreign market without incurring the substantial financial and legal risks associated with direct investment because this will further enhance foreign direct investments, expansion and deeply foster world trade among countries.
Cost of goods manufactured equals $55,000 for 2020. Finished goods inventory is $2,000 at the beginning of the year and $5,500 at the end of the year. Beginning and ending work in process for 2020 are $4,000 and $5,000, respectively. How much is cost of goods sold for the year?
Answer:
$51,500
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of goods sold for the year is shown below:
As we know that
Cost of Goods Sold = Beginning balance of Finished Goods Inventory + Cost of Goods Manufactured – Ending balance of Finished Goods Inventory
= $2,000 + $55,000 - $5,500
= $51,500
We simply applied the cost of goods sold formula by taking the three items into the computation part
Church Inc. is presently enjoying relatively high growth because of a surge in the demand for its new product. Management expects earnings and dividends to grow at a rate of 22% for the next 4 years, after which competition will probably reduce the growth rate in earnings and dividends to zero, i.e., g = 0. The company's last dividend, D0, was $1.25, its beta is 1.20, the market risk premium is 5.50%, and the risk-free rate is 3.00%. What is the current price of the common stock?
a. $32.69
b. $26.57
c. $27.37
d. $28.97
e. $23.39
Answer:
Option B ,$26.57 is correct
Explanation:
The cost of equity =Rf+Beta*Mrp
Rf is the risk free rate of 3.00%
Beta of equity is 1.20
Mrp is the market risk premium which is 5.50%
Cost of equity=3.00%+(1.20*5.50%)=9.60%
Stock price =present value of dividends+present value of terminal value
D1=$1.25*(1+22%)/(1+9.6%)^1=$ 1.39
D2=$1.25*(1+22%)^2/(1+9.6%)^2=$ 1.55
D3=$1.25*(1+22%)^3/(1+9.6%)^3=$ 1.72
D4=$1.25*(1+22%)^4/(1+9.6%)^4=$ 1.92
terminal value=year 4 dividend/(r-g)
year 4 dividend=$1.25*(1+22%)^4= 2.77
r is the cost of equity of 9.6%
g is the dividend afer year 4 which is 0%
terminal value= 2.77/(9.6%-0%)=$ 28.85
present value of terminal value= 28.85/(1+9.6%)^4=$ 19.99
Total present values=$ 1.39+$ 1.72+$ 1.92 +$ 1.92 +$ 19.99 =$26.58
According to the question Option B ,$26.57 is correct
How to calculate of common stock?When The cost of equity = [tex]Rf+Beta "/times" Mrp[/tex]
After that, Rf is the risk free rate of 3.00%
then Beta of equity is[tex]1.20[/tex]
After that Mrp is the market risk premium which is 5.50%
So that, Cost of equity 3.00%+(1.20*5.50%)=9.60% = 9.60%
Then The Stock price is = present value of dividends + present value of terminal value
Now, D1 is = $[tex]1.25 "/times" (1+22[/tex]%[tex])/(1+9.6[/tex]%)^[tex]1=$ 1.39[/tex]
Then, D2 is = $[tex]1.25 "/times" (1+22[/tex]%[tex])^2/(1+9.6[/tex]%)^[tex]2=$ 1.55[/tex]
Then D3 is = $1.25 "/times" (1+22%)^3/(1+9.6%)^3=$ 1.72
After that D4 is = $[tex]1.25*(1+22[/tex]%[tex])^4/(1+9.6[/tex]%)^[tex]4=$ 1.92[/tex]
Then the terminal value is = year 4 dividend/(r-g)
Then year 4 dividend is = $[tex]1.25×(1+22[/tex]%)^4= 2.77
Then r is the cost of equity of 9.6%
Now, g is the dividend after year 4 which is 0%
After that terminal value is = 2.77/(9.6%-0%)=$ 28.85
Then present value of terminal value is = [tex]28.85/(1+9.6[/tex]%)^4=$ 19.99
Thus, The Total present values is =$ [tex]1.39+$ 1.72+$ 1.92 +$ 1.92 +$ 19.99[/tex] =$26.57
Therefore Option B is $26.57

You just made the last monthly payment on a 30 year mortgage -- the house is yours! In your joyous moment, you calculate how much you made in payments over those 30 years, and it is $647,514! If your interest rate was an APR of 6%, and you made equal monthly payments, how much did you originally borrow for this house
Answer:
$112,807
Explanation:
To calculate the amount of money you borrowed, you have to use the formula to calculate the present value:
PV=FV/(1+r)^n
PV= pressent value
FV= future value= 647,514
r= rate= 6%
n= number of periods of time= 30
PV=647,514/(1+0.06)^30
PV=647,514/(1.06)^30
PV=647,514/5.74
PV=112,807
According to this, you originally borrowed $112,807 for this house.
