Answer:
9.14%
Explanation:
Tax exempt yield = 6.40% = 0.064
Marginal tax rate = 30% = 0.30
Equivalent taxable yield = Tax exempt yield / (1 - marginal tax rate)  
Equivalent taxable yield = 0.064 / (1 - 0.30)
Equivalent taxable yield = 0.064 / 0.70
Equivalent taxable yield = 0.0914286
Equivalent taxable yield = 9.14%
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer: 
A. Investors can hedge against a price decline by buying a call option.
Explanation: Investment risk can be defined as the probability or likelihood of occurrence of losses relative to the expected return on any particular investment.
Buying a call option entitles the buyer of the option the right to purchase the underlying futures contract at the strike price any time before the contract expires. Most traders buy call options because they believe a commodity market is going to move higher and they want to profit from that move.
A call option is a contract the gives an investor the right, but not the obligation, to buy a certain amount of shares of a security at a specified price at a later time. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
beginning WIP                800
Question: which are the physical units in the beginning work in process inventory?
Explanation:
The beginning WIP and the started and completed untis will be the total transferred units. 
<u><em>We first, solve for the start and completed: </em></u>
Unit Stated                     25,200
Ending WIP(incomplete)<u>  2,000   </u>
start and complete        23,200
<em><u>Now, we solve for the WIP: </u></em>
<em><u /></em>
Transferred units      24,000
start and complete<u>  (23,200)  </u>
beginning WIP                800
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
(a) $0 (b) 0% (c) 50% (d) -40% (e) 0.444 and 0.556 (f) -0.05
Explanation:
(a) Profit (in $) = (increase in price per share of Harley-Davidson * number of Harley-Davidson shares held) - (decrease in price per share of Yahoo * number of Yahoo shares held)
= $90 - $60 = $30 increase in Harley Davidson and $25 - $15 =$10 decrease in Yahoo
= ($30*100) - ($10*300) = $0
(b) return on portfolio = return/capital invested * 100 = $0/($60 * 100 + $25 * 300) = $0/$13500 = 0%
(c) return on investment in Harley = return/capital invested in Harley * 100 = $30*100/$60*1000 = $3000/$6000 = 50%
(d) return on investment in Yahoo = return/capital invested in Yahoo * 100 = -$10*300/$25*300 = -$3000/$7500 = - 40% (negative rate of return)
(e) Weighting at the beginning of year (in decimals) 
Harley Davidson = $60 * 100 units/ total invested ($60 * 100 + $25 * 300)
                             = $6000/$13500 = 0.444
Yahoo = $25 * 300 units/ total invested
            = $7500/$13500 = 0.556
(f) realized returns (as a decimal) of the portfolio = 0.444*50% + 0.556*-40%
                                                                                  = -0.0493728
                                                                                  = - 0.05 (to decimal places)
 
        
             
        
        
        
Explanation:
Marketing is profitably using the results of studying short term and long term needs of those who can pay for a one-time, or in most cases, a steady flow of service or product placement. In 2017 The New York Times described it as "the art of telling stories so enthralling that people lose track of their wallets.[1]
It is one of the primary components of business management and commerce.[2] Marketers can direct their product to other businesses (B2B marketing) or directly to consumers (B2C marketing).[3] Regardless of who is being marketed to, several factors apply, including the perspective the marketers will use. Known as market orientations, they determine how marketers will approach the planning stage of marketing.[4]
The marketing mix, which outlines the specifics of the product and how it will be sold,[5][6] is affected by the environment surrounding the product,[7] the results of marketing research and market research,[8][9] and the characteristics of the product's target market.[10] Once these factors are determined, marketers must then decide what methods will be used to promote the product,[3] including use of coupons and other price inducements.[11]
The term marketing, what is commonly known as attracting customers, incorporates knowledge gained by studying the management of exchange relationships[12][13] and is the business process of identifying, anticipating and satisfying customers' needs and wants.
