Answer:
Winners
- The US Federal Government
- Joy
Losers
- Karen
- Herb
- 3rd National Bank
Explanation:
The US Federal Government is a Winner because Inflation in general has the effect of eroding the value of money. Generally interest rates account for this but when it is Unexpected Inflation they don't. The US government is a winner because the amount of debt they now have in real terms have decreased.
Joy is also a winner for the same reason as the US government.
Karen lost out as a result of this because her Fixed Pension does not change with inflation which means that when inflation rates go up unexpectedly she will be able to buy less goods and services.
Herb's money will lose real value as a result of inflation because like Karen, Herb will be able to buy less goods and services when inflation rises.
3rd National Bank will also lose out because they made loans that would not have accounted for Unexpected inflation. The real value that they will be owed will therefore be less and they will suffer 'real' losses.
Answer:
determine cash investing and financing transactions made during the period.
Explanation:
When you analyze the statement of cash flows, you can determine and predict how will operating cash flows be in the future. E.g. a project is generating high amounts of cash, so you can predict that it will continue to do so for some time. But what you cannot predict or even compare is related to the financial and investing transactions that the company will make in the future. E.g. by analyzing a cash flow you cannot know if the company will decide to invest in other projects or will it decide to issue more stocks.

Answer:
take the payments over time payout
Explanation:
My personal opinion/advice would be to take the payments over time payout. There are many reasons for this, the first one being that most individuals are not used to receiving large sums of cash and usually end up wasting all the money as soon as they receive it, which usually does not occur if the payments are made over time. The second and more important reason is that if the payments are made over different years your would pay a much lesser amount on taxes every year that passes. This means that the even with the interest rate you would most likely have more overall money if you take the payments over time.
