Answer:

False. Markets can sometimes fail to reach efficiencies when there are externalities, public goods, monopoly, or serious information asymmetries

Explanation:

Invisible hand (effective allocation of resources in a laissez faire economy) sometimes works because when market function effectively and send correct price as signal of values (to society) to producers.

However, when goods can't be traded on markets (public goods) or its values are not correctly reflected on markets (externalities, information asymmetries) or competition is not ensured (monopoly), markets cannot ensure effective allocation of resources.

22. The price at which a bond sells is equal to the: A) Sum of the future interest payments, plus the maturity value of the bond
malfutka [58]

Answer:

B) Maturity value of the bonds plus the present value to investors of the future interest payments.

Explanation:

Bond price is the present discounted value of the future cash stream generated by a bond. It refers to the sum of the present values of all likely coupon payments plus the present value of the par value at maturity. To calculate the bond price, one has to simply discount the known future cash flows.

If a bond's coupon rate is more than its YTM, then the bond is selling at a premium. If a bond's coupon rate is equal to its YTM, then the bond is selling at par. Formula for yield to maturity: Yield to maturity(YTM) = [(Face value/Bond price)1/Time period ]-1.

kupik [55]

Answer:

$702,000

Explanation:

The cash flow statement categories the company's transactions in a financial period into 3 groups; these are operating, investing and financing.

The net profit/loss, depreciation, changes in current assets (other than cash) and liabilities are considered as operating activities including income taxes.  

The sale of assets, interest received, purchase of investments are examples of investing activities while the issuance of stocks, debt principal deduction (loan settlement), issuance of debt securities etc are examples of financing activities.

An increase in assets other than cash is an outflow while an increase in liabilities is an inflow. Depreciation and other non-cash expenses deducted in the income statements are added back while the non-cash income such gain on asset are deducted from net income.

The amount of net cash provided (used) by financing activities should be reported in the statement of cash flows

= -$108,000 + $810,000

= $702,000

Other transactions are either operating or investing activities related.
