what is the bank discount rate on a $100,000 face value t-bill priced at $97,500, maturing in 181 days?

1 answer:

6 0

In this instance, the answer is 4.97%. When Bank discount rate is $100,000.The bank discount rate is calculated as follows: face value - price /face value * 360/days to maturity

the formula for determining the bank rate of return is as follows

When we apply relevant information to the equation, we receive:

Bank discount rate = 100,000 97,500/ 100,000 *360/ 181 = 0.0497 = 4.97

Why is the bank discount generate not a realistic assessment of the refund on holding a Treasury bonds?

Because it is an annual rate rate of return based on the par value of the bills rather than the actual dollar amount of money invested, and it is calculated on a 360-day rather than a 365-day basis, the Discount Yield can be a misleading measure of the return on T-Bills (used for Treasury bonds and notes).

Xelga [282]

Answer:

11.68%

Explanation:

In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

= 4.4% + 1.3 × (10% - 4.4%)

= 4.4% + 1.3 × 5.6%

= 4.4% + 7.28%

= 11.68%

Answer:

B. First-in, first-out (FIFO)

First-in, first-out (FIFO) is an accounting principle which refers to a process whereby assets that are purchased first are sold first. In this situation, the cost in which the particular inventory was purchased is still the same cost with which it is sold out.
