Investors choose international diversification because:

Stells [14]

Answer: I found the correct and complete question:

Which of the following statements is most CORRECT with respect to international diversification?

a) the gains from diversification may be diminished due to combined correlations accompanied by volatility in world markets. b) world markets always seem to be most uncorrelated when volatility is present. c) world markets have displayed relatively low and fixed correlations over the last five years. d) global diversification produces gain even when world markets have correlations value near one.

Explanation: The correct answer is "a) the gains from diversification may be diminished due to combined correlations accompanied by volatility in world markets.".

Global markets are generally in different phases and many of them are part of weak economies that therefore have a high degree of volatility and some are correlated so that a loss in one of these markets can lead to a loss in another and earnings can be diminished.

Lewis Company traded machinery with a book value of $950,000 and a fair value of $900,000. It received in exchange from Timmons

Komok [63]

Answer:

Lewis should recognize a gain on the exchane of $13,636

Explanation:

In order to calculate the amount of gain or loss should Lewis recognize on the exchange, first we have to determine the amount of gain with the followig formula:

Gain=Total value of the machine received-Book value of machine exchanged

=(cash received+fair value of machine received)- $950,000

=($100,000+$1,000,000)-$950,000

=$ 150,000

Next, In order to calculate the amount of gain or loss should Lewis recognize on the exchange we have to use the following formula:

recognize gain or loss=( <u> cash received )</u>× gain

cash received+fair value of equipment received

= (<u> $ 100,000 </u>)× 150,000

$100,000+$1,000,000

=$13,636

Lewis should recognize a gain on the exchane of $13,636

An increase in the firm's WACC will decrease projects' NPVs, which could change the accept/reject decision for any potential pro

STatiana [176]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The first part was true. A higher WACC results in a lower NPV simply because a higher discount rate results in a lower present value.

E.g. 100 / (1 + 6%)³ = 83.96, but if we increase r to 10%, then 100 / (1 + 10%)³ = 75.13

The second part is wrong because under the IRR method, the decision rule is very simple, all projects are accepted if their IRR is higher than the project's WACC (or discount rate). I.e. if hte project's WACC increases, so does the chance of the project being rejected because the IRR might be lower than the WACC.
