Suppose you take out a 20-year mortgage for a house that costs $462,293. Assume the following: The annual interest rate on the mortgage is 4%. The bank requires a minimum down payment of 18% at the time of the loan. The annual property tax is 1.7% of the cost of the house. The annual homeowner's insurance is 0.7% of the cost of the house. The monthly PMI is $99 Your other long-term debts require payments of $730 per month. If you make the minimum down payment, what is the minimum gross monthly salary you must earn in order to satisfy the 28% rule and the 36% rule simultaneously?

Hilda and Horace, a married couple, were both previously married to others. Horace has an estate of $2 million from which he would like to provide income for Hilda following his death, but at her death, he would like the $2 million to be distributed to his children from his first marriage. Hilda has a fairly large estate and very little use for Horace's children. Horace wants Hilda to have the income and use of the trust assets, if needed, during her lifetime, but he does not want her to be able to change the beneficiary of the trust. Horace wants to delay any estate tax until Hilda's death. The best trust for Horace would be a

Vegan Steaks had the best year ever, with sales of $4,500,000 and operating profit of $950,000. The balance sheet at the beginning of the year showed assets used in production with a cost of $20,000,000 and accumulated depreciation of $5,000,000. The company didn’t buy any assets during the year but did have depreciation expense of $1,000,000. Calculate the ROI for the year.

A stock is currently priced at $39.00. The risk free rate is 4.9% per annum with continuous compounding. Every 6 months, its price will either go up by 17% or down by 19%. Consider a European put with strike $42.00 expiring in 12 months.
(a) Using the binomial tree model, compute the price of a European put option at the initial node, the two intermediate nodes, and the three terminal nodes.
Enter the following solutions as dollar values, including dollar symbols ($), to two decimal places.
Note: The solutions to later parts of this problem may require more precision than solutions to earlier parts. Therefore, you need to record your solutions to a higher precision than required for use in subsequent computations in order to avoid rounding errors later on.

(d) You own 1 put today. Use part (b) to determine how much stock you should buy to be Δ-neutral (that is, to ensure that the portfolio value does not change regardless of where the stock goes to at the intermediate time step 6 months from today).
Enter your solution to three decimal places. Note that a negative answer means selling stocks

Consider a 30-year adjustable rate mortgage (ARM), which requires the borrower to make monthly payments at the end of each month. The mortgage amount is $432,000 and the APR on the mortgage is 3.65% for the first 10 years and then 3.87% for the next 20 years. Prepare a loan amortization schedule for this mortgage. Assume that the mortgage closing date is October 1, 2018. Among other things, the following columns should be included.

Forecasted Statements and Ratios
Upton Computers makes bulk purchases of small computers, stocks them in conveniently located warehouses, ships them to its chain of retail stores, and has a staff to advise customers and help them set up their new computers. Upton's balance sheet as of December 31, 2016, is shown here (millions of dollars):
Cash $ 3.5 Accounts payable $ 9.0 Receivables 26.0 Notes payable 18.0 Inventories 58.0 Line of credit 0 Total current assets $ 87.5 Accruals 8.5 Net fixed assets 35.0 Total current liabilities $ 35.5 Mortgage loan 6.0 Common stock 15.0 Retained earnings 66.0 Total assets $122.5 Total liabilities and equity $122.5
Sales for 2016 were $300 million and net income for the year was $9 million, so the firm's profit margin was 3.0%. Upton paid dividends of $3.6 million to common stockholders, so its payout ratio was 40%. Its tax rate was 40%, and it operated at full capacity. Assume that all assets/sales ratios, (spontaneous liabilities)/sales ratios, the profit margin, and the payout ratio remain constant in 2017. Do not round intermediate calculations.
If sales are projected to increase by $70 million, or 23.33%, during 2017, use the AFN equation to determine Upton's projected external capital requirements. Enter your answer in millions. For example, an answer of $1.2 million should be entered as 1.2, not 1,200,000. Round your answer to two decimal places.
$ million
Using the AFN equation, determine Upton's self-supporting growth rate. That is, what is the maximum growth rate the firm can achieve without having to employ nonspontaneous external funds? Round your answer to two decimal places.
%
Use the forecasted financial statement method to forecast Upton's balance sheet for December 31, 2017. Assume that all additional external capital is raised as a line of credit at the end of the year and is reflected (because the debt is added at the end of the year, there will be no additional interest expense due to the new debt). Assume Upton's profit margin and dividend payout ratio will be the same in 2017 as they were in 2016. What is the amount of the line of credit reported on the 2017 forecasted balance sheets? (Hint: You don't need to forecast the income statements because the line of credit is taken out on last day of the year and you are given the projected sales, profit margin, and dividend payout ratio; these figures allow you to calculate the 2017 addition to retained earnings for the balance sheet without actually constructing a full income statement.) Round your answers to the nearest cent.

How do I figure out on a ba ii plus calculator, how to figure how many years it would take ? to pay off a house by making an extra payment or changing the payment all else fixed?
for example if I had a $210,000 house with a 30 year mortgage at 2.25% and my payment is $802.72. if I change my payment to let's say $ 1600, how many years would that take to pay off my loan? and how would I figure that out with any payment change ? Thank you ?

Use an interest rate of 14%, and assume that any new debt will be added at the end of the year (so forecast the interest expense based on the debt balance at the beginning of the year). Cash does not earn any interest income. Assume that the all new-debt will be in the form of a line of credit. Round your answers to the nearest dollar. Do not round intermediate calculations.

Caspian Sea Drinks is considering the purchase of a new water filtration system produced by Rube Goldberg Machines. This new equipment, the RGM-7000, will allow Caspian Sea Drinks to expand production. It will cost $12.00 million fully installed and will be fully depreciated over a 20 year life, then removed for no cost. The RGM-7000 will result in additional revenues of $3.21 million per year and increased operating costs of $581,786.00 per year. Caspian Sea Drinks' marginal tax rate is 26.00%. If Caspian Sea Drinks uses a 8.00% discount rate, then the net present value of the RGM-7000 is _____.
