A
couple
of
tips
that
stood
out
to
me
is
to
pay
yourself
first
and
talk
to
your
financial
advisor.
I
am
terrible
about
saving
money.
I
don't
ever
plan
ahead
for
anything,
which
is
detrimental
to
me
right
now
as
I
am
planning
a
wedding.
Talking
to
a
financial
advisor
might
help
me
figure
out
what
I
need
to
be
saving
per
paycheck.
Paying
myself
first
might
be
a
little
more
difficult
because
I
always
try
to
pay
my
bills
first
and
then
get
what
the
kids
need.
I
plan
on
looking
into
whether
my
bank
has
an
option
to
just
have
a
savings
account
that
I
acan
put
money
into
every
paycheck.
One
way
my
parents
saved
money
when
I
was
growing
up
was
putting
money
in
a
coffee
can
and
putting
it
away
for
when
they
needed
it.
I
have
not
personally
tried
this
method
but
it
seemed
to
work
for
them.

13. Moreon the time value of money
The time value of money concept can be applied in various situations and is a fundamental concept underlying other financial concepts.
Consider the following example of the application of this concept.
Charles is a divorce attorney who practices law in New York City. He wants to join the American Divorce Lawyers Association (ADLA), a professional organization for divorce attorneys. The membership dues for the ADLA are $550 per year and must be paid at the beginning of each year. For instance, membership dues for the first year are paid today, and dues for the second year are payable one year from today. However, the ADLA also has an option for members to buy a lifetime membership today for $5,000 and never have to pay annual membership dues.
Obviously, the lifetime membership isn’t a good deal if you only remain a member for a couple of years, but if you remain a member for 40 years, it’s a great deal. Suppose that the appropriate annual…

QUESTION 1
Marina had an accident with her car and the repair bill came to $900. She didn't have any emergency fund money and no extra money in her monthly budget, so she ended up borrowing from a pay-day loan company. As long as she can pay the loan back at the end of the 30 day period she won't be charged any interest, technically. However, she did have to pay an $19 processing fee per $100 that she borrowed.
If she were to consider the processing fee to represent interest paid in her formula, what would she discover to be the annual interest rate she was charged on her short term loan?
QUESTION 2
The end of the month has arrived and Marina was only able to save up a portion of the money she owed so far. This means she will have to delay paying off on the remaining amount. Besides the delayed payment fee that she is charged, she will now have to pay interest on the remaining amount until it is paid off. The APR (annual percentage rate) is 46.5%, but the interest is…

Outline of the case
Jessica Hernandez wanted to open a retail outlet in a mall where she could sell gadgets. As her
business started to grow, she realized she would soon need to hire one or two people and that will
need money to pay for their compensation. In other words, she could not grow her business without
borrowing. She plans to borrow $7,600 for 2 years however she doesn't have a very good credit
rating so most finance companies want to charge her a high-interest rate. She finally finds a lender
that will loan her the money at 12% compounded monthly.
Discussion Question:
1. How much interest will Jessica have to pay to the lender?
2. If you were Jessica, will you lend money at a higher interest rate? Why?
3. What other options are available and what should she do, aside from borrowing money.
4. Assume Hernandez has successfully managed her business for several years. List five
possible reasons she may still need to borrow from time to time.

Question 9
Read the problem carefully and use UPS Check to solve the problem. Show your mathematical thinking and record your final solution.
Part of the agreement between your spouse and yourself for purchasing a larger house than you could currently afford was that you would build a
garden and sell produce to make some extra money. Your plan is that the garden proceeds will cover 20% of your $1,500 mortgage payment for four months
during the year. The Homeowner association has recently reinforced that 'food-production' space must be in the backyard and may not consume more that 20% of
the backyard. If your backyard is 60' x 130', how many dollars per garden square foot will you need to average per production month in order to meet
your planned mortgage reduction?
