- After deciding to acquire a new car, you can either lease the car or purchase it with a three-year loan. The car you want costs $37,000. The dealer has a leasing arrangement where you pay $2,400 today and $580 per month for the next three years. If you purchase the car, you will pay it off in monthly payments over the next three years at an APR of 6 percent. You believe that you will be able to sell the car for $22,000 in three years. a.

The car you wish to buy costs $35,000. The dealer has a special leasing arrangement where you pay $99 today and $499 per month for the next three years. If you purchase the car, you will pay it off in monthly payments over the next three years at a 6% APR. You believe you will be able to sell the car for $23,000 in three years. All final answers are rounded to the nearest dollar. Choose all correct statements from the below. Question 6 options: If you sell the car after three years, the PV of purchasing the car is $15,780. Purchasing is always preferable if the APR is below 6%. The PV of leasing the car is $17,502. If the APR increases to 8.4%, you should lease the car. You should lease the car given that the PV of leasing is higher.arrow_forwardYou are buying a new car, and you plan to finance your purchase with a loan you will repay over 48 months. The car dealer offers two options: either dealer financing with a low APR, or a $2500 rebate on the purchase price. If you use dealer financing, you will borrow $13,000 at an APR of 3.9%. If you take the rebate, you will reduce the amount you borrow to $10,500, but you will have to go to the local bank for a loan at an APR of 8.87%. To answer the first question below, you may need the following formula, where M is your monthly payment, in dollars, if you borrow P dollars with a term of 48 months at a monthly interest rate of r (as a decimal), and r = APR/12. M = Pr(1 + r)48 (1 + r)48 − 1 Should you take the dealer financing or the rebate? dealer financingrebate How much will you save over the life of the loan by taking the option you chose?

- You would like to buy a house that costs $350,000. You have $50,000 in cash that you can put down on the house, but you need to borrow the rest of the purchase price. The bank is offering you a 30-year mortgage that requires annual payments and has an interest rate of 9% per year. You can afford to pay only $28,320 per year. The bank agrees to allow you to pay this amount each year, yet still borrow $300,000. At the end of the mortgage (in 30 years), you must make a balloon payment; that is, you must repay the remaining balance on the mortgage. How much will be this balloon payment? Hint: The balloon payment will be in addition to the 30th payment. The balloon payment is $ (Round to the nearest dollar.)arrow_forwardYou would like to buy a house that costs $350,000.
