Andrej [43]2 years ago

A limitation of bond ratings is that they focus exclusively on default risk.

When investing, the bond rating represents the creditworthiness of a corporate or government bond. It's not the same as a person's creditworthiness. Ratings are published by rating agencies and used by investment professionals to assess the likelihood of debt repayment.

Bond Rating is a character-based credit rating system used to assess bond quality and creditworthiness. Investment grade bonds are rated by Standard & Poor's from AAA to BBB- and by Moody's from Aaa to Baa3. Junk bonds have a lower rating.

Which of the following is a reason the government can't completely control the business cycle?
barxatty [35]

Answer: B

The government cannot control interest rates and that is the reason is why the government cannot completely control the business cycle. This is so because interest rate controls the rate of consumer spending, borrowing and spending. Say interest is low, people will borrow more and spend more and this will have an impact in the rate of employment. Hence, in short if the government cannot control interest rate, everything depending on it, the economic cycle cannot be determined.

You and a group of friends are planning to visit a theme park, which charges $60 for admission, $100 for a two-day pass, and $13
enyata [817]

Answer:

<u><em>Part 1. </em></u>

  • <em>Average cost per day of a three-day pass</em> =  $53.33/day per person

  • <em>Marginal cost of adding the third day </em>= $190 - $160 = $30 per person

<em />

<em><u>Part 2.</u></em>

  • <em>Group's marginal cost of switching from the two-day pass to the three-day pass</em> = $180

Explanation:

The total <em>cost</em> is the <em>admission charge</em> ($60) plust the cost of the pass ($100 or $130).

For a <em>two-day pass</em> that is: $60 + $100 = $160, per person

For a <em>three-day pass</em> that is: $60 + $130 = $190, per person

<u><em>Part 1. The average cost per day of a three-day pass per person. </em></u>

The <em>average cost</em> is the total cost divided by the number of days.

  • <em>Average cost</em> = $160/3days = $53.33/day per person

The <em>marginal cost of adding the third day</em> per person is found by subtracting the total cost for two days from the total cost for three days:

  • <em>Marginal cost of adding the third day</em> = $190 - $160 = $30 per person

This says that althoud the average cost for the three days is $53.33 the cost of adding the third day is $30, which is much lower; thus, it is a good deal to buy a three-days pass, as they are interested in spending a lot of time there.

<u><em>Part 2. The group's marginal cost of switching from the two-day pass to the three-day pass</em></u>

<em></em>

Since the <em>marginal cost of switching from the two-day pass to the three-day pass</em> is $30 per person, the marginal cost for the 6-person group is 6 times $30:

  • 6 persons × $30/person = $180.

Edgar, Inc. has a materials price standard of $2.00 per pound. Six thousand pounds of materials were purchased at $2.20 a pound.
butalik [34]

Answer:

materials quantity variance: 1,200 unfavorable

Explanation:

(standard\:quantity-actual\:quantity) \times standard \: cost = DM \: quantity \: variance

std quantity 5400.00

actual quantity 6000.00

std cost  $2.00

(5,400 - 6,000) \times 2.00 = DM \: quantity \: variance

difference -600.00

quantity variance  $(1,200.00)

The difference between standard and actual quantity is negative. We used more pounds than expected, the variance will be unfavorable.

600 extra pounds at $2.00 each = 1,200

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Anne Mullens committed embezzlement.

Explanation:

Embezzlement is defined as misappropriation of funds by someone with whom funds have been entrusted.

It is a theft as the money does not belong to the perpetrator. The perpetrator is only entrusted with funds.

One of the conditions for embezzlement is an existence of a fiduciary (trust) relationship between parties.

In the given case, Anne Mullens pocketed $57 cash from recorded amount instead of recording 57$ customer's payment via check. Instead she included the customer's check in the money to be taken to bank.

This is embezzlement of funds by Anne.
