Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

Arbitrage refers to a situation wherein a gain is made owing to price discrepancy or unevenness in two markets. The rule for arbitrage is to buy from the markets where price is less and sell in the markets where price is higher.

Triangular arbitrage occurs wherein 3 different currencies are involved and the exchange rates are not uniform i.e a discrepancy exists and interest rate parity does not hold true.

Interest rate parity refers to the concept wherein the disparity between two currency exchange rates is adjusted by the respective interest rates of the two countries. When interest rate parity exists, no arbitrage is possible as markets are fairly priced.

MariettaO [177]

Media is the organization or entity that would help the fire department with incident scene security, crowd control, and explosives disposal.

Law enforcement is the organization or entity that would support the fire department with incident scene security, crowd control, and explosives disposal. Law enforcement forces respond to emergencies around the clock and operate under a paramilitary command structure. In most traffic situations, officers act alone and are taught to make unilateral command judgments. Fire and rescue services respond to emergencies around the clock and follow a well-defined command structure on the scene. The core constituency of traffic incident management consists of eight key disciplines: law enforcement, fire and rescue, emergency medical, transportation, towing and recovery, hazardous materials cleanup, public safety communications and dispatch, and traffic reporting.

. El Capitan Foods has a capital structure of 36% debt and 64% equity, its tax rate is 35%, and its beta (leveraged) is 1.4. Bas

almond37 [142]

Answer:

The firm's unleveraged beta is 1.0251

Explanation:

Hamada's equation is used to separate the financial risk of a levered firm from its business risk.

The Hamada equation:

Bu= Bl/(1 + (1 − T)(D/E))

Bl = 1.4

wd = 0.36

Tax rate = 35%

D/E = wd / (1 – wd) = 0.5625 = 56.25%

= 1.4/ (1+(1-0.35)(0.5625))

=1.4/ 1 + (0.65)(0.5625)

=1.4/1.36

= 1.0251
