Answer: Option A    

Explanation: A money based payment system is the one in which the transactions involving exchange of goods and services are performed by using a common denomination called money. In such a system any commodity can be valued on the basis of money.

However in a barter system one commodity is exchanged for the other. Therefore, the double coincidence of wants is needed for fulfilling these transactions. The actual value cannot be determined for any commodity.

  From the above we can conclude that the correct option is B.

Reil [10]

Note:

I wasn't able to access the Chester Income Statement but I successfully accessed a similar question Digby.

The Complete Question is as under:

Refer to the HR Reports in the Inquirer. Through past investments in recruiting and training Digby has obtained a productivity index of 109.6%. This means that Digby's labor costs would be increased by 9.6% if it did not have these productivity improvements. This is a competitive advantage that Digby can sustain or even widen further if its competitors have no HR initiatives. Now, refer to the Income Statement in Digby's Annual Report. How much did Digby's productivity improvements save it in direct labor costs (in thousands) last year?

A. $766

B. $29818

C. $3137

D. $3211

Answer:

Option D. $3,137

Explanation:

The Productivity Index of 9.6% shows that if the improvement plan is implemented then the efficiency gains would result in saving of 9.6% of total direct cost. So if we total the direct cost for the year for all of the four products then we have an amount of $32,680 which is given at the second last column.

The amount saved last year would be:

Savings = $32,680 * 9.6% = $3,137

Hence the option C is correct here.

defon

Answer: 8.79%

Explanation:

The premium or discount as a percent of NAV will be calculated thus:

NAV will be calculated as:

= (Market value of portfolio - liabilities ) / shares outstanding

= ($310 million - $3million) ÷ 10 million

= $30.7 per share.

Then, the calculation for the discount percent will be:

= (selling price - NAV) / NAV

= ($28 - $30.7) / $30.7

= ($-2.7) / $30.7

= (0.0879)

= 8.79%

Therefore, NAV is trading at discount of 8.79%

Walter Utilities is a dividend-paying company and is expected to pay an annual dividend of $0.65 at the end of the year. Its div
Korolek [52]

Answer:

option 14.92%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question;

Expected annual dividend to be paid = $0.65

Expected growth rate = 9.50%

Walter’s stock currently trades = $12.00 per share

Now,

Expected rate of return = \frac{\textup{Expected dividend}}{\textup{Stock price}}\times100\% + Growth rate

or

Expected rate of return = \frac{\$0.65}{\$12.00}\times100\% + 9.50%

or

Expected rate of return = ( 0.054167 × 100% ) + 9.50%

or

Expected rate of return = 5.4167% + 9.50%

or

Expected rate of return = 14.9167 ≈ 14.92%

Hence, the correct answer is option 14.92%
