The purchase price of the condo is $190,000. Payments of $983.80 will be required at the beginning of each month over a 25-year amortization period. If interest is 5.38% compounded semi-annually during the first year, what is the semi-annually compounded interest rate during the payment period? The interest rate during the payment period is % compounded semi-annually. Round the final answer to two decimal places. Round all intermediate values to six decimal places as needed.)

On March 1, Marquette is approached by the developer of a large subdivision who wants to install an invisible fence in the yard of 1,200 homes he is constructing. The developer will contract with Marquette for the 1,200 fences on the condition that they are delivered within 30 days (March 31). This is not good timing for Marquette since they have recently signed a contract with Home Warehouse, a national home improvement chain and have been working at 100% capacity for several months. If Marquette accepts the builder’s order, it will lose 1,200 units that would normally be sold to one of its existing customers. When they tell the developer that they do not believe they can fill his order, he offers to reimburse the company for his “share” of the fixed manufacturing costs and will pay a $5,000 “bonus” on delivery. Since the sale to the developer will not incur any variable marketing costs, Marquette reconsiders accepting the developer’s order. What impact will accepting this order have…
A businessman bought a building, but the thermal insulation of the roof is not adequate. It was determined that with 6 '' of insulating foam it is possible to reduce the cost of heating by $ 1,500 and air conditioning by $ 2,000 per month. Assuming that the first six months of the year is winter and the next six months are summer, calculate the maximum price of the repair if the building is expected to be maintained for 2 years. The interest rate is 1.5% per month. please put the digram
Omni-Resistor, Incorporated specializes in waterproofing homes, office buildings and other structures. Recently it completed a waterproofing renovation for a building at a local university. The contract specifies that Omni-Resistor will receive a flat lump sum of $101,000 for the renovation, and an additional $2,600 if there is no water leaking through the roof within the first year after the renovation. The seller estimates that there is an 80% chance that no leakage will occur within the first year. Required: (a) Assuming Omni-Resistor uses the most likely value to estimate the variable consideration, calculate the transaction price. (b) Assuming Omni-Resistor determines transaction price as the “expected value” of the variable consideration, calculate the transaction price. (c) Assume Omni-Resistor uses the “expected value” approach, but is very uncertain of that estimate due to a lack of experience with similar renovations. Calculate the transaction price.

You are considering the purchase of a parking deck close to your office building. The parking deck is a 15-year old structure with an estimated remaining service life of 25 years. The tenants have recently signed long-term leases, which leads you to believe that the current rental income of $250,000 per year will remain constant for the first five years. Then the rental income will increase by 10% for every five-year interval over the remaining asset life. Thus, the annual rental income would be $275,000 for years 6 through 10, $302,500 for years 11 through 15, $332,750 for years 16 through 20, and $366,025 for years 21 through 25. You estimate that operating expenses, including income taxes, will be $65,000 for the first year and that they will increase by $6,000 each year thereafter. You estimate that razing the building and selling the lot on which itstands will realize a net amount of $200,000 at the end of the 25-year period. If you had the opportunity to invest your money…
Happy Cleaners needs a new steam machine that costs $100,000. The company is evaluating whether it should lease or purchase the machine. The equipment falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be used for 3 years and then sold, because the firm plans to move to a new facility at that time. The estimated value of the equipment after 3 years is $30,000. A maintenance contract on the equipment would cost $3,000 per year, payable at the beginning of each year. Alternatively, the firm could lease the equipment for 3 years for a lease payment of $29,000 per year, payable at the beginning of each year. The lease would include maintenance. The firm is in the 20% tax bracket, and it could obtain a 3-year simple interest loan, interest payable at the end of the year, to purchase the equipment at a before-tax cost of 10%. If there is a positive Net Advantage to Leasing the firm will lease the equipment. Otherwise, it will buy it. What is the NAL?
Your firm plans on purchasing an existing rental property with a remaining service life of 30 years. Recently, the tenants signed a 5-year lease, fixing the rental income at $300,000 for the next five years. Rental income is expected to increase by 5% every five years over the remaining life of the property. Based on this increase, the annual rental income would be $315,000 for years 6 through 10, $330,750 for years 11 through 15, $347,288 for years 16 through 20, $364,652 for years 21 through 25, and $382,884 for years 26 through 30. Operating expenses, including income taxes, are estimated be $70,000 for the first year increasing by $6,000 each year thereafter. At the end of the property service life, you expect selling the lot on which it stands for net amount of $550,000. Alternatively, you could invest in a mutual fund that earns at the rate of 10% per annum, what would be the maximum amount you would be willing to pay for the property at the present time?
