You are enrolling in an MBA program. To pay your tuition, you can either take out a standard student loan (so the interest payments are not tax deductible) that has an EAR of 5% or you can use a tax-deductible home
equity loan with an APR (monthly compounding) of 5.875%. You anticipate being in a very low tax bracket, so your tax rate will be only 15%. Which loan should you use?
The after-tax rates for the two loans are:
Compare
Percent
Standard loan rate:
%. (Round to three decimal places.)
Home equity loan rate:
%. (Round to three decimal places.)
The loan I should use is: (Select the best choice below.)
A. The home equity loan.
B. Neither loan, because the rates are too high,
C. Either loan, because the rates are the same.
D. The standard student loan.
You currently pay $10,000 per year in rent to a landlord for a $100,000 house, which you are considering purchasing. You can qualify for a loan of $80,000 at 9% if you put $20,000 down on the house. To raise money for the down payment, you would have to liquidate stock earning a 15% return. Neglect other concerns, like closing costs, capital gains, and tax consequences of owning, and determine whether it is better to rent or own.
