Answer:

d. $96,914

Explanation:

Parker Co. can execute money market hedge in following steps:

(1) Parker Co. pledges Receivable of SF200,000 to borrow SF190,476 with rate 5% in Switzerland; SF190,476 = SF200,000/ (1+5%)

so it has to pay interest expense of SF9,524 in 360 days. The receivable of SF200,000 is enough for both principal and interest in 360 days.

(2) Then it sells SF190,476 at spot rate $0.48 to get $91,428

(3) Then it deposits $91,428 in US with rate 6% to get back $96,914 in 360 days ; $96,914 = $91,428 * (1+6%)

Why would a company have a physical headquarters in one state but file for incorporation in another state?.
Semmy [17]

Employees pay income taxes depending on the rates of the chartering state, therefore a firm may opt to charter in a state with lower income taxes if it has a physical headquarters in one state but files for incorporation in another.

Scenario II:
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Pay tuition first

Explanation:

Mrs. Das should pay the tuition fee of her children first from the $5000 balance with her, this is to enable the children take their exams without any distraction. Failure to pay their tuition may also mean that the children will spend an additional year in some cases. Therefore to avoid inflicting psychological distress on the children, paying the children's tuition will be made priority.

Also, settling Avon before the due date is important too and if I were in her shoes may decide to return or sell some of the goods purchased from her because it could be seen that Mrs. Das was carried away by Avon's stock and purchased more than those things which they needed most importantly.
