Explanation:

a) Trading securities are a category of securities that include both debt securities and equity securities.   An entity holds them with the intention  to sell in the short-term for a profit that arises from increases in the prices of the securities.

b) Fair value is an asset's selling price, which is freely agreed upon between a willing and knowledgeable buyer and seller.  But, for Debt Securities, it represents the market value of the investments at any point in time when financial statements are being prepared.  Investments that are held for trading purposes are required to be accounted for, using the fair value method.  This implies that the gains and losses, both realized and unrealized must be accounted for whenever financial statements are bing prepared or when the investment is disposed of.

At an activity level of 9,200 machine-hours in a month, Nooner Corporation's total variable production engineering cost is $825,
dybincka [34]

Answer:

variable per unit        $  89.72

fixed cost per unit     $  26.5

total unit cost            $  116.22

Explanation:

Variable cost per machine-hour

825,420 / 9,200 = 89.72

This will keep constant at unit level thus, at 9,400 the variable cost will still be 89.72

Now fixed cost: 249,100 / 9,400 output = 26.5

This is the fixed cost per unit considering a 9,400 untis output

Now, we add them to get the total unit cost:

89.72 + 26.5 = 116.22

Answer: B. There are two IRRs so you cannot use the IRR as a criterion for accepting the opportunity.

Explanation:

The Internal Rate of Return can be useful in capital budgeting to enable a company know if an investment will be profitable. It is defined as the discount rate that causes the Net Present Value(NPV) to be zero. If the IRR is greater than the required return then the project should be accepted as it will have a profitable NPV.

IRR has some problems however and one of them is reflected here. There can sometimes be two IRRs and when this happens, using IRR as a viability measure cannot be done because a single rate is needed for comparison with the required return.
