The interest rate term structure shows market participants' expectations for future interest rate adjustments as well as their evaluation of the state of monetary policy.

The relationship between interest rates or bond yields and various terms or maturities is, in essence, the term structure of interest rates. The term structure of interest rates is referred to as a yield curve when it is graphed, and it is extremely important in determining the state of an economy at any one time.

(Credit)  Gain on Purchase Bargain                          $80,000

<em />

Explanation:

When acquiring another business, net asset (Total Assets - Total Liabilities) is valued at fair value (sometimes called market value, not book value.  Hence, the reason why the fair value of Lark`s assets and liabilities was used in the calculation above. So the net assets  ($57,000+$165,000+$307,000+$203,000 - $20,000) = $712,000.

After, calculating the net assets of the Lark, the purchase consideration given by Bower Company has to be removed from the net asset, in order to get the goodwill or gain on purchase bargain on the acquisition. The formula is Purchase consideration - Net assets of the target company = Goodwill (Gain on purchase bargain). If the purchase consideration is higher than the net assets, then goodwill is obtained. If the purchase consideration is lower than net assets acquired then, gain on purchase bargain is obtained.

In Bower`s case, gain on purchase bargain is obtained because net assets is  greater than purchase consideration ($632,000 - $712,000).

<em>Merger cost</em>

Merger cost is not considered as part of purchase consideration. The merger cost is taken to income statement of Bower Corporation as expense.

"An investor buys $10,000 of a "regulated" mutual fund investing solely in municipal securities. Which statement is TRUE regardi
kogti [31]

Answer: D. The investor has no tax liability on distributions received, and the investment company has no tax liability on retained income

Explanation:

Municipal Securities are exempt of Federal taxes and this is what makes them most attractive. An investor in a mutual fund which invests solely in municipal securities will therefore not have any tax liability because their returns would be based on securities that are federally tax exempt. The same goes for any income the Mutual fund intends to retain.

RV Company agrees to buy a certain quantity of vintage campers from Sales Inc. Their contract limits consequential damages for l
Aleks [24]

Answer:

consequential damages cover only reasonable foreseeable losses.

Explanation:

  • The contract limits the resulting loss to lost profits from the use of the goods. The limit is not necessarily unconscious because lost profits are not necessarily significant and can be considered as direct or indirect losses.
  • the contract may apply to both the lease and the sale and excluding some from the contract simply because it is a commercial loss makes no sense.
  • so limit is not necessarily unconscionable because consequential damages cover only reasonable foreseeable losses.
