The correct answer is letter "C": risk-free rate.
Explanation:
The United States government issues a variety of debt obligations to finance its operations. Those with the shortest maturity are called Treasury Bills or T-Bills. One of the unique features of T-Bills is that the government does not make regular interest payments to the holder. Instead, the securities are sold at a price below its face value resulting in a profit at the maturity date.
T-Bills are seen as low-risk investments compared to other securities being <em>the closest to risk-free return</em> in the market.

Answer:
Total variance= $7,000 favorable
Explanation:
<u>To calculate the direct material total variance, we need to determine the direct material price and quantity variance:</u>
<u></u>
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (41 - 42)*34,000
Direct material price variance= $34,000 unfavorable
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (5*7,000 - 34,000)*41
Direct material quantity variance= $41,000 favorable
Total variance= 41,000 - 34,000= $7,000 favorable
Answer:
The statement of cash flows is one of the most important financial statements of a company, since a company might be very profitable but if it doesn't have enough cash to function, then it will go bankrupt. This is normally more important when things are not going well, e.g. Ford didn't go bankrupt during the great recession because it had lots of cash, while GM and Chrysler ran out of cash and had to be bailed out.
Companies can survive without making any profits during many years and still be a success, e.g. Amazon, but no company can survive without cash. In finance and investing, cash is king.
The two ways to calculate cash flows are the direct and indirect method. The direct method is calculating through the differences between cash inflows and outflows. On the other hand, the indirect method starts with net income and is then adjusted for depreciation and amortization, increase in accounts receivables, etc.
Personally, I prefer the indirect method because it is much more simple to prepare and understand. Folks at FASB and IASB prefer the direct method because according to them it provides a clearer picture of the company's cash outflows and inflows. It sounds reasonable until you learn that companies that present the cash flows using the direct method must also present them using the indirect method. Or the companies can simply present the indirect method. So I'm not really sure that their argument is very solid.
