MAMD.M.D.1A: Part of the agreementbetween your spouse and yourself forpurchasing a larger house than you couldcurrently afford was that you would builda garden and sell produce to make someextra money. Your plan is that thegarden proceeds will cover 20% of your$1,500 mortgage payment for fourmonths during the year. The Homeownerassociation has recently reinforced that'food-production' space must be in thebackyard and may not consume morethat 20% of the backyard. If yourbackyard is 60' x 130', how manydollars per garden square foot will youneed to average per production monthin order to meet your plannedmortgage reduction?
