Business

The payee has a legal obligation to submit the funds.

Explanation:

Once a transaction is agreed upon it becomes a legal obligation of the payee to pay the business owner.

<u>Accounts receivable are thus counted in the balance sheets as liquid funds or current funds as they are converted into cash in less than an year is most cases. </u>

In such a case that doesn't happen, they are counted as long term assets of a company. Any potential income guaranteed by legality is counted in the balance sheet as assets.

An asset has had an arithmetic return of 10.3 percent and a geometric return of 8.3 percent over the last 90 years. What return
Art [367]

Answer:

Blume's formula combines the geometric and arithmetic means of an asset to be able to predict its returns in a given period.

The formula is;

<em>= Geometric Mean*(T-1)/(N-1) + Arithmatic Mean *(N-T)/(N-1) </em>

Where;

T = Period in question

N = Total period

10 years

= 8.3%*(10-1)/(90-1) + 10.3%*(90-10)/(90-1)

= 10.1 %

25 years

= 8.3%*(25-1)/(90-1) + 10.3%*(90-25)/(90-1)

= 9.76%

30 years

= 8.3%*(30-1)/(90-1) + 10.3%*(90-30)/(90-1)

= 9.65%

You decide to invest in a bond with a 10% coupon paid semi-annually every February 1st and August 1st. The bond is currently sel
Ksenya-84 [330]

The question is missing an important information. 'The bond is currently selling at an asking price of 101.25' In this part there should have been a date at which date the bond was selling at 101.25.

Nevertheless, I will provide with the calculation, if you find out the date, just plug in the value in it and you will get the answer.

The bond price mentioned is $ 101.25 percent of par, which would be $ 1012.5. Since, it is asking for price at May 1st then you know that it has been 89 days since the last semi-annual coupon was paid ( February 1st (28) + March (31) + April (30)  = 89 days.

The missing date (from the question) will be divided by 89 days. The answer will be added to $1012.5.
