Answer:

(A) pay within the discount period and recognize a savings.

Explanation:

The given credit terms of 2/10, n/30 means

If the payment is paid within 10 days so 2% discount is given and the total credit period given is 30 days

Suppose we take an example

A buys the merchandise of goods from B for $10,000 on April 1. The payment is doe by A on April 7

So, the net payment is

= $10,000 - $10,000 × 2%

= $10,000 - $200

= $9,800

The $200 shows the discount which A avails and termed as a savings

Stock J has a beta of 1.26 and an expected return of 13.46 percent, while Stock K has a beta of .81 and an expected return of 10

Oxana [17]

Answer:

J = 0.422

K = 0.58

Explanation:

When a portfolio is said to have risk that is equal to market, this means that the beta is equal to 1.

Let us define the weight of stock J = x

Let us define the Weight of stock K = (1-x)

To get the The Beta of portfolio = (x*1.26) + ((1-x)*0.81) = 1

When we open the brackets,

1.26x + 0.81 - .81x = 1

1.26x-0.81x = 1-0.81

0.45x = 0.19

To get x we divide through by 0.45

X = 0.422

Therefore the Weight of stock J = 0.422

Then the Weight of stock K = 1 - 0.422 = 0.578

Approximately 0.58

Melba purchases land from Adrian. Melba gives Adrian $225,000 in cash and agrees to pay Adrian an additional $400,000 one year l

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Melba's adjusted basis for the land at the Acquisition date is $625000
Melba's adjusted basis for the land one year later is $645000

Explanation:

The adjusted basis for a property/land is the net cost of the property after adjusting for factors that might attract tax as related to the land

The adjusted basis for the land at the acquisition date is the net cost of the land at the acquisition date which will be ( $225000 + $400000 ) because that was the net cost of the Land at the date of acquisition before an agreement was later reached by Melba requiring him to pay $400000 plus an interest of 5%

Hence the adjusted basis for the land one year later will be

= ( $225000 + $400000 ) + 5% of $400000

= ( $625000 ) + $20000

= $645000
