2. Buy a new car at market value for $15,000. Car depreciates 20% upon transfer of ownership.

When the car depreciate 20% upon transfer of ownerships, the value of asset that we received became:

$15,000 x 80% = $ 12,000.

Since we have to pay $15,000 in cash, we experienced a reduction of $3,000 in our net worth.

- Finance a used car at market value for $16,000.

No net worth changed since we spent $16,000 worth of asset (cash) in order to get $16,000 worth of asset (car)

- Pay off $4,000 of school loans with cash

No net worth changed. Reduction of $4,000 in liabilities, but our asset is also reduced by  $ 4,000

- Go on a vacation that costs $1,500

Reduction of $1,500 from out net worth since we do not obtain any asset in return.

3. $160,000

The formula to count the amount of the mortgage = (price of the house - down payment).

Price of the house: $ 200,000

Down payment : $200,000 x 20% = $ 40,000

This mean, the amount of the mortgage would be:

$200,000 - $ 40,000 = $ 160,000

4. Lower, Increase

Variable interest rate can be changed depending the economic condition or a financial factors such as consumer price index.

This mean that from the moment the loan is made, the interest rate could either go higher or lower depending on the market performance. Because of the risk that the borrower had to face, this type of interest rate tend to be cheaper.

5. Lower, Higher

As the duration of loan got higher, the interest rate for that loan would also increase to cover the risk of creditor.

So, if we compare a 30 years loan and a 15 years loan, the payment for the  30 years loan would be lower since it would divided by 30 rather than 15.

But, since shorter loan has lower interest, if we count the total amount that you should pay  for 30 years loan would be higher compared to 15 years loan.

6. Negative $1,500

Net worth is counted by counting total assets - total liabilities.

Megan's asset :

- $ 500 short term saving

- $5,000 retirement saving

Total asset : $ 5,000 + $ 5,00 = $ 5,500

Megan's liabiltiies:

- $ 500 credit card debt

- $ 6,500 student loan debt

Total liabilities : $ 6,500 + $ 500 = $ 7,000

Megan's net worth = $ 5,500 - $ 7,000 = Negative $1,500

Explanation:

Straight line depreciation recognize an assets carrying amount evenly over its useful life.

Straight line Depreciation = (Cost - Estimated Residual Value) / useful life

Depreciation expense for Machine A:

($400,000 - $20,000) / 10 years

= $38,000

Depreciation expense for Machine B:

($600,000 - $50,000) / 10 years

= $55,000

Depreciation expense for Machine C:

($420,000 - $20,000) / 8 years

= $50,000

Revised Depreciation of Machine B:

($314,000 -  $19,500) / 10 years

= $29,450

1. Go on a vacation that costs $3,500 
Paying off money for buying a car will not decrease your net worth as you get the car as assets for the money you use. But the depreciates 20% will cause you to lose $3,000 assets. Assuming you are not buying assets at all, go on a vacation that costs $3,500 will increase liability without any effect on assets. Paying up bills will decrease your asset but it also decreases your liability so the net worth wouldn't change. 

2. 1) higher 2) lower
Subprime lending is lending money to people with a low credit score that was not really fit for the credit. This means the risk of getting the money back would be higher than prime lending. Since the risk of losing the money is higher, the interest should be higher than prime lending.

3. $200,000
The house price is $250k and the buyer put 20% down which is; 20%*$250k= $50k
Then the rest of the money that needs to be paid by the mortgage would be: $250k-$50k=$200k

4. Lower, Increase
In variable rate loans, the interest will be adjusted by the market. That means the rates will be unpredictable since it was based on the condition of the market. It will be safer for the creditor since he/she will absolutely get the revenue no matter how the market goes. This change is a bit dangerous for the borrower because the number of rates can increase dramatically. 

5. Higher, lower
When you pay 30 years mortgage, the total loan is divided by 30 years which was 2 times more than 15 years. Excluding the rates, you can estimate that the 15 years mortgage payment will be twice than 30years mortgage. The total cost would also be lower since the interest rate is applied for 15 years, about half than 30 years.

6. Negative $3,500
Net worth is assets minus liability.
The list of the assets would be: 
$500 in short-term savings
$5,000 in her retirement savings account
Total assets= $500+$5,000= $5,500

The list of liability would be:
$1,500 in credit card debt
student loan debt of $7,500

Total liability= $1,500+ $7,500= $9,000Net worth= $5,500- $9,000= - $3,500
