The Sarbanes-Oxley Act in 2002 was created to protect consumers against false advertising by monopolies.

The statement "The Sarbanes-Oxley Act in 2002 was created to protect consumers against false advertising by monopolies." is false.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act placed the obligation of responsibility for a company's financial reporting squarely on the shoulders of its top executives in order to safeguard investors from corporate accounting fraud.

It required chief executive officers (CEOs) and chief financial officers (CFOs) to personally attest to the correctness of the information in financial reports and to affirm that controls and procedures were in place to evaluate and verify that accuracy.

In reality, CEOs and CFOs had to personally certify that financial reports complied with Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC) rules by signing them. Failure to comply with this might result in fines of up to $15 million and 20-year prison terms.

Hence, the given statement is false.

There are three economy situations and two stocks Information is as follows Economy Stock A Stock B Booming 0.3 10 20 Neutral 0.
Bumek [7]

Answer:

a) A = 4.50% and B = 2.00%

b) SD for A = 4.15 %

c) Portfolio Return = 3.0%

Explanation:

a) Expected Returns for Both A and B respectively:

In order to calculate the expected returns, let's categorize the given data first.

Economy        Probability      Stock A       Stock B

Booming            0.30               10%               20%

Neutral               0.30                5%                 0%

Recession          0.40                 0%                -10% (not 10%)

So,

Expected Return for Stock A:

A =   Sum of (all Probability x Stock A)

A = (0.30 x 0.10) + (0.30 x 0.05) + (0.40 x 0.00)

A = 0.045

<u><em>A = 4.50 % </em></u>

Return for Stock B:

B = Sum of all Probability x Stock B

B = (0.30 x 0.20) + (0.30 x 0.00) + (0.40 x -0.10)

B = 0.002

<u>B = 2.0%</u>  

<em>b) Standard Deviation /Risk for Stock A:</em>

SD for A = Sum (Square Root (Probability*(Stock A Return - Expected Return of Stock A)²) )

SD for A = \sqrt{0.30*(0.10-0.045)^2 + 0.30*(0.05-0.045)^2+0.40*(0.00-0.045)^2}

SD for A = 0.0415

<u><em>SD for A = 4.15%</em></u>

c) Portfolio Return Given that:

                                        Value          Weight         Return

Stock A                          4000              0.4               4.50%

Stock B                          6000             0.6                 2.0%

                                      10000

Portfolio Return =  Sum of ( Weight x Return)

                          = (0.4 x 0.045) + (0.6 x 0.02)

                          = 0.03

<em><u>Portfolio Return = 3%</u></em>

Which of the following statements is TRUE of payback​ period? A. If the payback period is greater than the maximum acceptable pa
Firdavs [7]

Answer:B. If the payback period is less than the maximum acceptable payback​ period, accept the project.

Explanation:

The payback period measures if a capital investment is profitable.

The payback period measures how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a capital project. It calculates how long it takes for the cash flows generated from a capital project to be equal to the cost.

For example if a project costs $10,000. It cash flows in year 1,2,3 and 4 are $5000, $3000, $2000, $6000. The payback period is 3 years. If the company has a maximum acceptable payback period of 2 years, then the company won't take on the project because its payback period is more than the maximum acceptable payback period.

If the company has a maximum acceptable payback period of 4 years, then the company would take on the project because its payback period is less than the maximum acceptable payback period.

Wanda is organizing an Employee Appreciation Day event and is soliciting vendors to provide food and drinks. There are 638 emplo
DedPeter [7]

In this case, Wanda can calculate the revenue for her Employee Appreciation Day event by using this formula:

  • revenue = [(number of employees of the company) + (½ x number of employee of the company)] x event price
  • x = [(638) + (319)] x 2
  • x = 952 x 2
  • x = $1,914

Thus, Wanda’s expected revenue is $1,914, assuming that half of the employees are married and will be attending the Employee Appreciation Day alongside their spouse.
