Chapter 15, Problem 5SP
(Cost of short-term financing) The R. Morin Construction Company needs to borrow $100,000 to help finance the cost of a new $150,000 hydraulic crane used in the firm’s commercial construction business. The crane will pay for itself in 1 year, and the firm is considering the following alternatives for financing its purchase:
Alternative A—The firm’s bank has agreed to lend the $100,000 at a rate of 14 percent. Interest would be discounted, and a 15 percent compensating balance would be required. However, the compensating-balance requirement would not be binding on R. Morin because the firm normally maintains a minimum demand deposit (checking account) balance of $25,000 in the bank.
Alternative B—The equipment dealer has agreed to finance the equipment with a 1-year loan. The $100,000 loan would require payment of principal and interest totaling $116,300.
- a. Which alternative should R. Morin select?
- b. If the bank’s compensating-balance requirement were to necessitate idle demand deposits equal to 15 percent of the loan, what effect would this have on the cost of the bank loan alternative?

- where a $70,000 loan could be assumed at a 9 percent rate with a remaining term of 15 years and payments of $709.99 per month. Recall that a comparable property with no special financing available would sell for $100,000 and could be financed at a market rate of 11 percent. How much more than $100,000 could the buyer pay if he or she chose to assume the 9 percent loan and still be as well off as if the property were purchased for $100,000 and financed with an 11 percent loan? We first find the present value of the payments that can be assumed using the market rate. This is the market value or cash equivalent value of the assumable loan. It represents the price at which the old loan could be sold to a new lender/investor.arrow_forwardA buyer is considering purchasing a 10-acre parcel in Peoria, Arizona for economic development. The parcel has a sales price of $720,000. The buyer agrees with the seller for purchasing the property with 15% down up front and paying off the balance in 12-months. If a bank is willing to provide 3% annual interest, compounded monthly, how much should the monthly deposit be into that account to pay off the desired balance to the seller?arrow_forwardA house is sold with an assumable $156,000 below-market loan at 10% for a term of 15 years by a construction company.
