When economists use the term ceteris paribus, they are indicating that

A beneficiary acquired stock from a decedent. The stock's fair market value at the date of the decedent's death was $500,000. Th

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Beneficiary recognized gain is $510000.

Explanation:

The amount paid by the decedent for the stock = $280000

The market value of the stock at the time of death = $500000

The selling price or the amount received by the beneficiary by the sell of stock = $510000

Since the recognized gain is calculated by subtracting the amount paid by the person to buy the stock from the amount that he receives from the sale of stock. But in this case, the beneficiary pays zero for the stock but gets all the money after selling.

Beneficiary recognized gain = amount received from the sell – the amount paid by the beneficiary.

= $510000 – 0

= $510000

North Bank has been borrowing in the U.S. markets and lending abroad, thereby incurring foreign exchange risk. In a recent trans

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

A) 10.82%

B) 5.27%

C) 8.56%

Explanation:

Given data :

North Bank Borrow ; $1.4 million at 5 percent

Lend in pounds at 9%

spread = ( 4% )

spot rate = 1.454

A) Determine the loan rate to maintain the 4 percent spread

Expected spot rate = 1.43

First step :

Lending amount = $1.4 million / initial spot rate = 1.4 / 1.454 = £ 0.9628 million

= principal ( $1.4 million ) + interest ( 9% of 1.4 ) = 1.4 + 0.126 = $1.526 million

In pound ( at the expected spot rate )

= 1.526 / 1.43 = £1.067 million

expected profit = £1.067 - £0.9628 = £ 0.1042 million

Therefore the interest rate tp maintain the 4 percent spread

= 0.1042 / 0.9628 = 10.82%

B) Determine the net interest margin if the bank hedges its forward foreign exchange exposure

Forward rate = 1.46

assuming interest as value calculated above = ( 10.82% )

lending amount = £0.9628 million

Repayment = 0.9628 * 111% * 1.46 = $1.5603 million

therefore return rate = $1.5603 - $1.4 = $0.1603 million = 10.27%

hence : Net interest margin = 10.27% - 5% = 5.27%

C) Determine the loan rate to maintain the 4 percent spread if the bank intends to hedge its exposure using the forward rates.

Forward Hedging contract forward rate = 1.46

lending amount = $1.4 / 1.454 = £ 0.9628 million

Total Interest and Principal Repayment Required in $ to maintain 4% Spread = $1.526 million

In pound = 1.526 / 1.46 = £ 1.0452

Interest = £1.0452 - £0.9628 = £0.0824 million

therefore interest Rate to maintain 4℅ Spread

= ( 0.0824 / 0.9628 ) * 100 = 8.56%

The fundamental relationship between savings and investment spending in an economy is that: A. savings will increase as investme

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The correct option is B

Explanation:

In an economy, planned investment spending is always equal to planned saving. If actual saving falls short of (exceeds) planned saving, then actual investment falls short of (exceeds) planned investment.

That is the other part of the saving paradox. If an economy produces too much, such that saving is greater than planned investment, inventory will build up, giving signal to producers to reduce output, to restore equilibrium. Such investment scheme is suitable only to communist countries. Keynes has another investment theory in his liquidity story. But investment theories are equally a posterior.

Therefore, Option B is correct

A firm has $1.5 million in sales, a Lerner index of 0.57, and a marginal cost of $50, and competes against 800 other firms in it

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

$116.28

Explanation:

This can be calculated as follows:

Mark up = [1 ÷ (1 - Lerner index)]

Price = Mark-up × Marginal cost

= [1 ÷ (1 - 0.57)] × $50

Price = [1 ÷ 0.43] × $50 = $116.28

Therefore, the price this firm will charge its customers is $116.28.
