Anna [14]

Answer: $1,288,000

Explanation:

The amount should the company record as compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2022 will be calculated thus

Number of RSUs = 300,000

Market price of shares = $14

Term of RSUs = 3 years

The compensation expense for year 1 which is 2021 will be:

= [(300,000 × $14) × 1 / 3] - $0

= $1,400,000

The compensation expense for year 2 which is 2022 will be:

= [(288,000 × $14) * 2 / 3] - $1,400,000

= $2,688,000 - $1,400,000

= $1,288,000

Therefore, the amount should the company record as compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2022 will be $1,288,000

Note that the number of RSUs in 2022 was calculated as:

= 300,000 × (100% - 4%)

= 300,000 × 96%

= 288,000

MariettaO [177]

Answer: Argentinean central bankers effectively gave control of their domestic interest rate to the FOMC.

Explanation:

The Federal Open Market Committee(FOMC) is a committee of the Federal Reserve which influences the interest rate in the country by engaging in Open Market Operations (OMO). In doing so, they also influence the value of the dollar which is the currency of the U.S.

By pegging the Argentine Peso to the U.S. dollar, the Argentines effectively gave control of their domestic interest rate to the FOMC because the FOMC in deciding the interest rate for the U.S. and therefore the dollar, will be deciding for any other currency that moves exactly as the dollar does which is what the Peso is now going to do.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Beta of this portfolio = 0.9953

Explanation:

Given:

Investment in security A = $650 beta 1.2

Investment in security B = $450 beta 0.7

Find:

Beta of this portfolio

Computation:

Beta of this portfolio = [650 / (650+450)]1.2 + [450 / (650+450)]0.7

Beta of this portfolio = [650 / (1,100)]1.2 + [450 / (1,100)]0.7

Beta of this portfolio = 0.7090 + 0.2863

Beta of this portfolio = 0.9953
