Answer: 7.24%
Explanation:
From the question, we are told that:
3 years treasury securities have an interest rate = 1.92%
10 years treasury security has an interest rate = 5.62%
Let the 7 year treasury security interest in 3 years be represented by z.
Based on the expectation theory
( 1+1.92%)^3 × (1 + z%)^7 = (1 + 5.62%)^10
(1+0.0192)^3 × (1 + z%)^7 = (1 + 0.0562)^10
(1.0192)^3 (1 + z%)^7 = (1.0562)^10
1.05871(1 + z%)^7 = 1.72767
Divide both side by 1.05871
(1 + z%)^7 = 1.72767/1.05871
(1 + z%)^7= 1.6319
1 + z% = 1.6319^1/7
1 + z% = 1.6319^0.1429
1 + z% = 1.0724
z% = 1.0724 - 1
z% = 0.0724
We then convert the decimal to percentage
z = 7.24%
The market believes that 7-year Treasury securities will be yielding 7.24% in 3 years .
Answer:
Product 1 - $36
Product 2 - $ 96
Product 3 - $66
Explanation:
The accounting standard for Inventory under IFRS IAS 2 requires that inventory be recognized at cost which includes all the cost incurred to bring the item of inventory to a state or place where the item of inventory becomes available for sale.
These costs includes cost of purchase, freight, Insurance cost during transit etc.
Subsequently, inventory is to be carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
The NRV is the Selling price less the cost to sell.
Given
Product 1 Product 2 Product 3
Cost $36 $ 106 $ 66
Selling price $ 88 $ 168 $ 118
Costs to sell $ 9 $ 72 $ 26
NRV $ 79 $ 96 $ 92
Answer:
$174
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of goods sold is shown below:
As we know that
Cost of goods sold = Opening inventory + Purchase - ending inventory
= $142 + $432 - $400
= $174
By adding the purchase of merchandise and deducting the ending inventory from the opening inventory we can get the cost of goods sold and the same is to be applied
Hence, the cost of goods sold is $174
Answer:
Calculate the tax consequence of withdrawal from retirement account.
T and L are 40 years old and decide to withdraw $2,100 from their IRA. They lie in a 35% marginal tax bracket.
Analysis
They are withdrawing some amount from their retirement fund. They have to pay the tax and penalty for early withdrawals from the retirement fund. The withdrawal amount is $2,100 so they have to pay tax on it. The tax rate will be 35% which is their marginal tax bracket.
Calculation of tax consequences if withdrawal amount is $2,100:
Ordinary income tax amount calculates by multiplying the withdrawal amount with the ordinary tax rate.
= $2100 × 35%
= $735
The withdrawal amount attracts the 10% penalty. So, the penalty amount is calculated as follows: Penalty on withdrawn funds calculates by multiplying the withdrawn funds with the percentage of penalty.
= $2100 × 10%
= $210
(NOTE: - T and L have to pay ordinary income tax along with the penalty on their withdrawal because they are withdrawing funds from their IRA before age 59.5.)
Total expenses include the tax amount and penalty charge on withdrawal amount. So, it is calculated as follows:
Total expenses =$735 + $210
Total expenses = $945
Conclusion
Therefore, T and L would incur a tax of $945 on their withdrawal. This $945 is the sum of income tax amount and penalty on withdrawal balance.
