Which statement is the converse of the given statment

1 answer:

4 0

Might seem controversial though :) but I am pretty sure that the correct variant that properly shows the converse of given statement is the third one. As you know, the converse (in plane language) has the same meaning of the statement just by replacing two points. This statement has positive tone (if you make - you ll have) so it's directly coincides with C(you have, cause you have made)

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

D) only revenue is recorded each time a sale is made.

Explanation:

When a company uses a periodic inventory system, the cost of goods sold is calculated only after the physical inventory count is completed. This physical count is done periodically and may happen once every few months or even once a year.

The periodic system is obsolete nowadays and cheaper technological solutions make it easier for companies to use a perpetual inventory system which is much better in every possible way.

Both Bond Bill and Bond Ted have 10.4 percent coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond Bill has 5 ye

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Ans,

a) If interest rates suddenly rise by 3 percent, Bill´s bond would drop by -20.02% and Ted´s bond would go down by -36.07%

b) If rates were to suddenly fall by 3 percent, Bill´s bond would rise by 26.79%

and Ted´s bond would rise too by 86.47%

Explanation:

Hi, first let´s go ahead and establish the stable scenario, for that we are going to use the information of the problem but we need to add the discount rate of the bond or yield, which is the missing information. All this so this concept can be explained in a better way, so for this example we´ll say that the yield of both bonds is 10% compounded semi-annually, the same units as the coupon. Now we have to use the following formula.

$Price=\frac{Coupon((1+Yield)^{n}-1) }{Yield(1+Yield)^{n} } +\frac{FaceValue}{(1+Yield)^{n} }$

Where:

Coupon = (%Coupon/2)*FaceValue= (0.104/2)*1,000=52

Yield = we are going to assume 10% annual, that is 5% semi-annual

n = Payment periods (For Bill n=5*2=10, for Ted, n=22*2=44)

So, let´s see what is the price of each bond if the yield was 10% annual compounded semi-annually.

$Price(Bill)=\frac{52((1+0.05)^{10}-1) }{0.05(1+0.05)^{10} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.05)^{10} } =1,015.44$

In Ted´s case, that is:

$Price(Ted)=\frac{52((1+0.05)^{44}-1) }{0.05(1+0.05)^{44} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.05)^{44} } = 1,035.33$

Now, if the interest rate (Yield) suddenly goes up by 3%, this is what happens to Bill´s Bond

$Price(Bill)=\frac{52((1+0.08)^{10}-1) }{0.08(1+0.08)^{10} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.08)^{10} } = 812.12$

If yield goes down by 3%, this is the new price of Bill´s bond.

Price(Bill)=\frac{52((1+0.02)^{10}-1) }{0.02(1+0.02)^{10} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.02)^{10} } = 1,287.44

Now, in the case of Ted, this is what happens to the price if the yield goes up.

$Price(Ted)=\frac{52((1+0.08)^{44}-1) }{0.08(1+0.08)^{44} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.08)^{44} } = 661.84$

If it goes down by 3%, this would be the price for Ted´s bond.

$Price(Ted)=\frac{52((1+0.02)^{44}-1) }{0.02(1+0.02)^{44} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.02)^{44} } = 1,930.56$

Now, in percentage, what we need to use is the following formula.

$Change=\frac{(VariationValue-BaseValue)}{BaseValue} x100$

For example, in the case of Bill´s bond, which yield went up by 3%, this is what we should do.

$Change=\frac{(812.12-1,015.44)}{1,015.44} x100=-20.02Percent$

So, the price variation is -20.02% if the yield rises by 3%.

This are the results of the prices and calculations for you to answer this question. Best of luck.

Bill Ted % (Bill) %(Ted)

Base Price $1,015.44 $1,035.33

(+) 3% Yield $812.12 $661.84 -20.02% -36.07%

(-) 3% Yield $1,287.44 $1,930.56 26.79% 86.47%

Answer:

a) Marginal cost of waiting is greater than the marginal benefit of being served

Explanation:

For an economic perspective, customer leave a fast food restaurant as they find the marginal cost of waiting is higher than the cost of marginal benefit of being served at restaurant.

Marginal cost: In economics, it is a cost that is incurred for an additional unit of benefit received out of certain action or activity.

Marginal benefit: It is a benefit received for an additional unit of cost incurred during the activity taken place.

When shopping for clothes and shoes, keep in mind the logo, team name, style or celebrity endorser question 1 options:

lawyer [7]

B. False. More real-world, relevant and important ideas to keep in mind when shopping for shoes and clothes are the associated quality of the manufacturer, which could be a brand name. Also, of utmost importance is the overall quality of the product with relation to its cost. The size of the item is also important. Do not buy an overpriced item, that does not fit properly and is made of cheap materials that quickly break.
