Business
1 answer:

Answer:

These questions are incomplete since the article relating to Hologen company is not attached. However, I would answer them this way.

Explanation:

1) A floating rate bond has a shorter duration; almost zero and it has lower sensitivity to interest rates compared to a fixed rate bond.This means that the former has a lower interest rate risk. Investors tend to demand floating rate bonds when they expect future interest rates to rise because their prices would be close to their par values as their interest rates would also increase. On the other hand, fixed bond's interest rates are inversely related to their prices.

2)

For an issuing company, borrowing money floating rates terms could be riskier for cashflow management purposes . Every time interest rates increases, it means that the company would pay higher interests to lenders which could hurt its profitability. The fluctuations could also negatively affect future financial planning unlike issuing fixed rate bonds whose coupon payments are constant hence decreasing the volatility of earnings.

The daily cost of producing pizza in New Haven is C(Q) = 4Q + (Q2/40); the marginal cost is MC = 4 + (Q/20). There are no avoida
postnew [5]

Answer:

q_{10} = 200P - 800

q_{20} = 400P - 1600

Explanation:

let the supply function be : P = MC

P = 4 + Q/20

therefore Q = 20P - 80 ( supply function )

For 10 firms

Q = 10( 20P - 80 ) = 200P - 800

for 20 firms

Q = 20(20P - 80 ) = 400P - 1600

next determine market supply curve under free entry

AC = 4 + Q/40

Hence ; when Q = 0 , AC = 4   and this is for unlimited number of firms

Write the relationship between audit and finance?
OLga [1]

Answer:

Financial management makes decisions about managing finances: managing cash, using credit, paying bills, minimizing tax bills and borrowing costs, ensuring money for the firm’s current plan, and reporting the status of the finances. They are one part of the broader management team, and have a direct role in planning and can actually contribute profits or losses to the bottom line via their decisions.

Auditors are more like investigators or quality control: they don’t make business decisions, they make sure the financials being reported actually match the reality of what the company is doing. They usually are independent of management: they report to the board of the company, not the management they are auditing; they often have the mandate to look at anything they choose; they sometimes have a forensics function: collecting and analyzing evidence of serious wrongdoing if things are really out of control.

1.audit refers to the systematic process of examining verify of data related to the financial activities of an organization.

2.auditor is a professional inside audit

Financial management

1.Financial management refers to managing the fund of an organization.

2.finance manager is a professional inside finance management.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": True.

That cost is recognized as the value of the asset unless there is reasonable proof to state the opposite. Under this principle, any organization can register in its books an asset that has not been part of a transaction yet.
