Answer: e. The pervasiveness of immoral and amoral businesspeople.
Explanation:
Managers are sometimes pressured into engaging in unethical behaviors due to intense competitive pressures that can determine whether they keep their jobs especially in a company culture that puts the profitability and good business performance as the paramount yardstick of success.
Heavy pressures placed on company managers to meet or beat earnings targets can also lead to unethical behavior and on a more person level, so can an overzealous pursuit of personal gain, wealth, and other self-interests.
The pervasiveness of immoral and amoral business-people is not a major driver of unethical managerial behavior.
Answer:
2129 futures contracts to be sold
Explanation:
Asset worth = $310 million
Asset duration = 12 years
liabilities = $248 million
Liabilities duration = 5 years
T-bond futures contracts = 104-20 (30nds)
% of assets = 310 / 248 =
<u>Determine how many futures contracts Village Bank will sell to fully hedge the balance </u>
Number of Contracts = -[Assets * (Asset Duration – (Liabilities Duration * % of Assets) / (Duration * Contract Value)]
= - [ 310 * ( 12 - ( 5 * (310/248)) / ( 8 * ( 104 + ( 20/30)) ]
= - [ 310 * ( 12 - 6.25 ) / ( 8 * 104.6667 ) ]
= - [ 310 * 5.75 / 837.3336 ]
= - 2.12878 * 1000
= 2128.78 ≈ 2129 ( number of futures contracts to be sold )
