Answer:
Answer is 12.64%. Therefore,
Treasury bills are paying a 4% rate of return. A risk-averse investor with a risk aversion of A = 3 should invest entirely in a risky portfolio with a standard deviation of 24% only if the risky portfolio's expected return is at least 12.64%.
Refer below for the explanation.
Explanation:
E - 4%= 0.5(3)(24%)2
E=12.64%
Answer:
A. 25%
B. 50%
C. 48000 after tax cash flow
Explanation:
a. lets assume marginal tax rate is X%
After tax cash flow of 80000 should equal to 60000$
$80000 - [$80000*X%] = 60000$
80000*X% = 80000-60000
80000*X% =20000
X = 20000/80000
= 25%
b.
$80000 - [$80000*50%*x%] = 60000$
40000*x%=20000
x%=50%
c.
$80000- [$80000*x] = 60000 - [60000*50%*x]
80000-60000 = [80000*x] - [30000*x]
20000 = 50000x
x=40%
check
80000-40% =48000 after tax cash flow
60000*50%
=60000- [60000*50%*40%]
=48000 after tax cash flow
Answer:
-Say nothing to his co-workers since this was a private conversation and he could lose his job if his boss found out he was spreading sensitive company information
Explanation:
Since in the situation it is mentioned that Mark accidentally heard a confidential phone conversation in which the possibility of layoff in the sales division would be discussed he is not in danger but some of his friends are the sales representatives so mark would not tell anyone as it is a private conversation and he could lose the job if the boss knows that the information is spread by mark
Therefore the second option is correct
Answer:
Note: <em>The complete question is attached as picture below</em>
1a. The one year spot rate can be calculated using the one year zero bond.
PV * (1 + S1) = FV
1 + S1 = 1000 / 900
S1 = 1.1111 - 1
S1 = 0.1111
S1 = 11.11%
1b. PV of the 2 year bond = $950
Annual coupon = 1000 * 5% = $50
950 = 50 / (1 + S1) + (50 + 1000) / (1 + S2)^2
950 = 50 / 1.1111 + 1,050 / (1 + S2)^2
1,050/ (1 + S2)^2 = 950 - 45 = 905
(1 + S2)^2 = 1050 / 905
1 + S2 = 1.160221/2
S2 = 7.714%
1c. Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / (1 + 0.07714)^2
Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / 1.1602
Price of the 2 year zero bond = 861.9203586
Price of the 2 year zero bond = $861.92
Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
Value can be defined as the thing for which an customer is willing to pay the price. It is the activity on any shop floor or business for delivering the product or service to the customer for which the customer is ready to pay the price for it.
If the customers does not wish to pay the price, then there is no value.
So inside a factory, in a shop floor, moving a part from one place to another for making a product that the customer is willing to pay is a value added activity. But excess movement or transportation of product does not any value to it, it is then considered as a waste.
Also storing of products is a non value activity as storing a product will not help the customer in any way and a customer will not pay for a product when it is stored and is of no use to the customer.
