The Discount rate reflects the opportunity costs of spending funds now versus achieving a return through another investment, as well as the risks associated with not receiving returns until a later time.
Explanation:
The discount rate relates to the interest rates on loans that the Federal Reserve Bank borrows from central banks and financial institutions through the commercial bank loan mechanism.
The rate of barriers, financial assets and discount rates are all equal. The next best potential investment option with a comparable risk profile wins the rate of returns. The word ' opportunity expense' is a clear and generic concept that can be used any day of the day.

5. Falcon pays interest on the borrowings to Wildcat. This is income statement items and is an expense. It belongs to financing activity.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
1. VaR = Expected return - z × Standard deviation
= 13% - 1.645 × 20%
= -19.90%
Therefore the option a is the correct answer.
2) Now the correlation coefficient is
Variance of the portfolio = (weight of A × Standard deviation 1)^2 + (weight of B × Standard deviation 2)^2 + (2 × weight of A × weight of B × Standard deviation 1 × Standard deviation 2 × correlation 1 and 2)
3.80% = (60% × 24%)^2 + (40% × 18%)^2 + (2 × 60% × 40% × 24% × 18% × correlation 1 and 2)
So the correlation is 0.583
Answer:
$5.97
Explanation:
In order to determine the capital gain of the bond in a year's time,it is first first of all important to calculate the yield to maturity on the bond which is arrived at by applying the rate formula in excel as follows:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of coupon interest the bond would pay over its entire life of 15 years which is 15
pmt is the annual interest,7.9%*$1000=$79
pv is the current market price of the bond which is $790
fv is the value of $1000
=rate(15,79,-790,1000)=10.79%
Afterwards,the price of the bond in one year' time can then be calculated:
=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
The variables in the formula are as above except for nper which would reduce by 1 in a year's time
=-pv(10.79%,14,79,1000)
pv=$ 795.97
Hence the capital gain=price now-price one year ago/price one year ago
price now is $795.97
price one year ago was $790
Capital gain=$795.97-$790=$5.97
Capital gain %= ($795.97-$790)/$790=0.76%
Answer:
$136
Explanation:
Date Transaction Units Cost Total
3 Purchase 5 $20 $100
10 Sale 3
17 Purchase 10 $24 $240
20 Sale 6
23 Sale 3
30 Purchase 10 $30 $300
using the first in, first out method, the COGS is calculated based on the oldest price of the units in merchandise inventory:
6 units were sold on May 20th, 2 of them costed $20 (May 3rd purchase) per unit = $40, while 4 of them costed $24 (May 17th purchase) = $96. Total COGS = $40 + $96 = $136.
