Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

1. $6,720

2. $17,530

Explanation:

In this question, we use the accounting equation which is shown below:

Total assets = Total liabilities + Stockholder's equity

1. The equity value is computed by

$15,400 - $8,680 = Stockholder's equity

So, stockholder equity is $6,720

2. Since assets is assets is increased by $5,000 and the equity is decreased by $3,850

So, updated assets = $15,400 + $5,000 = $20,400

And, the updated equity is $6,720 - $3,850 = $2,870

So, the total liabilities equal to

= $20,400 - $2,870

= $17,530

B $5,018.75

C $5,025.00

D $5,028.75

The correct option is B,$5018.75

The key to unlock this question is to know that government securities are usually quoted in 1/32 nds ,which means that in calculating the price the number after 100 is is multiplied by 1/32.

1M means 1000,while 5M means 5000

The price of 5M=5000*(100+12*1/32)%

The price of 5M=5000*(100+0.375 )%

The price of 5M=$5018.75

In this case the bid price which is lower is used when selling securities to the dealer
