When were talking about the Federal Money Reserve we can eliminate B)sell securities on the open market. Because they don't do that when they want to increase money supply. C and D will be eliminated because they don't help in this way either. So the correct answer is A)reduce the discount rate

given data

credit sale = $750

terms = 2/10, n/30

return = $50

to find out

amount to be made as payment = $750 - $50

amount to be made as payment = $700

Zink Co.’s defined benefit pension plan had plan assets with a fair value of $325,000 at December 31, year 8, and of $375,000 at
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

C. A return of $70000

Explanation:

Given that

Beginning plan asset = 325000

End plan asset = 375000

Contributions = 130000

Total avalable assets initially = beginning plan asset + contributions

= 325000 + 130000

= 455,000.

Distributions of pension resulted in less 150000

Thus,

Balance = 455000 - 150000

= 305000.

But recall that the ending balance was

375000

Thus,

The difference between 375000 and 305000 = $70000, represents the return on plan assets.

Hence return on plan assets

= $70,000

NOTE that, the loss of $55,000 from sale of specific investments is included in the net gain of $70,000

Investment X offers to pay you $6,200 per year for nine years, whereas Investment Y offers to pay you $9,000 per year for five y
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

a)Present value [X] = $46,099.06

    Present value[Y] = $40,066.40

b) Present value[X] = $30,667.51

   Present value[Y] = $30,897.73

Explanation:

Present value of an ordinary annuity is calculated as follows:

Present value =PMT*\frac{[1-(1+i)^-^n]}{i}

where PMT = the value of the individual payments in each period

                 i =  the interest rate that would be compounded in each compounding period

                n = the number of payment periods

a) Present value of X given PMT = 6,200; i=0.04; n = 9 is calculated as follows:

Present value[X] = 6,200*\frac{[1-(1+0.04)^-^9]}{0.04}  = $46,099.06

Present value of Y given PMT = 9,000; i=0.04; n = 5 is calculated as follows:

Present value[Y] = 9,000*\frac{[1-(1+0.04)^-^5]}{0.04}  = $40,066.40

b) if the discount rate is 14% and all other variables do not change

Present value[X] = 6,200*\frac{[1-(1+0.14)^-^9]}{0.14}  = $30,667.51

Present value[Y] = 9,000*\frac{[1-(1+0.14)^-^5]}{0.14}  = $30,897.73
