Alternative A has an initial acquisition cost of $10,000 and an annual average operating and maintenance cost of $1402 per down time. Alternative B has a higher acquisition cost of $20,000, but has a lower annual average operating and maintenance cost of $500 per down time.

Jason is interested in buying a new Maserati Gibli. The sales price of the car is $77,000. Jason intends to put a down payment of $15,000 and take up the balance with a 5 year loan. Since Jason has excellent credit, he anticipates the annual interest rate (APR) for his future loan would be 2.84%. Round your answers to the nearest dollar.

The maximum down payment Jason can afford is $30,000. Construct a one-way data table with the down payment amount as the column input and monthly payment as the output. Vary the down payment amount between $0 and $30,000 in increments of $5,000. What is the range of payments that Jason is expecting?

After thinking about the future loan, Jason decides he only wants to pay $900 per month. Using the appropriate Excel tool, find the exact down payment amount that Jason needs.

Please show how to solve all problems using Excel, and please show how to construct the one way data table.

You are 20 years old and plan to purchase a house when you are 35

.a. The current price of the house you want to purchase is $275,000 and the price is expected to increase by 3% per year. How much will the house cost when you are 35?

b. When you are 35, the bank will require a cash down-payment of 10% of the house price to obtain a mortgage. How much will you need to save each year between age 20 and 35 to have enough for the down-payment, if you can earn 5% on your deposits? Assume end-of-year deposits.

c. Given the same data in part b., how much will you need to deposit each year to have enough for the down-payment if you make beginning-of-year deposits?

d. Suppose your parents promise to pay the down-payment when you turn 35. How much will they need to deposit today in an account that will earn 8% for the next 15 years (when you will need to the down-payment)?

Let’s say you push the block from the bottom of the plane all the way up to the top of the plane, then let it slide back down.

11-1. While you are pushing the block up the plane, is the work done by gravity positive or negative? Why?

11-2. While you are pushing the block up the plane, is the work done by friction positive or negative? Why?

11-3. As the block slides back down the plane, is the work done by gravity positive or negative?

11-4. As the block slides back down the plane, is the work done by friction positive or negative?

11-5. What is the net work done by gravity over the entire cycle (being pushed all the way up and then sliding all the way back down)? Is it positive, negative, or zero?

11-6. What is the net work done by friction over the entire cycle (being pushed all the way up and then sliding all the way back down)? Is it positive, negative, or zero?
