IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Option D is the correct answer to this question.

Explanation:

An increase in the average family size in recent years has created a demand for bigger cars. Since Roger Woods proposed that Crimson must introduce some variety in its product line to maintain overall profit margins, option D is the only option that suggests a need for adding a new variety to its product line (Bigger Cars), since there is a demand for it already arising from the increase in the average family size.

You are choosing between these four investments and you want to be​ 95% certain that you do not lose more than 8.00% on your inv
borishaifa [10]

Answer: B. Corporate Bonds and T-Bills

Explanation:

As you want to be 95% certain, this would require a 95% confidence interval.

With the given returns and standard deviations, the range of returns expected will be computed by;

Upper limit = Return + 2*SD

Lower limit  Return - 2*SD

Stocks

Upper Limit = 18.37% + 2 (38.79%)

= 96.0%

Lower Limit = 18.37% - 2 (38.79%)

= -59.2%

S&P 500

Upper Limit = 11.84% + 2(20.01%)

= 51.9%

Lower Limit =  11.84% - 2(20.01%)

= -28.2%

Corporate Bonds

Upper Limit = 6.47% + 2(6.98%)

= 20.4%

Lower Limit = 6.47% - 2(6.98%)

= -7.5%

T-Bills

Upper Limit = 3.46% + 2(3.14%)

= 9.7%

Lower Limit = 3.46% - 2(3.14%)

= -2.8%

The lower limit show the lowest return achievable given a 95% confidence level.

<em>Only </em><em>Corporate Bonds</em><em> and </em><em>T-Bills</em><em> will give a minimum that is above 8% so they should be chosen. </em>

Nancy sold three capital assets that were held for investment. She sold stock in ABC Corporation for a gain of $10,000; stock in
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

D) $3,000 deduction against ordinary income with a $5,000 capital loss carried forward to offset income for next year

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete as it does not include the options. The complete question is therefore presented before answering the questions follows:

Nancy sold three capital assets that were held for investment. She sold stock in ABC Corporation for a gain of $10,000; stock in XYZ Corporation for a gain of $2,000; and corporate bonds for a loss of $20,000. Assuming all of the investments had a long-term holding period, how will the transactions be treated for tax purposes?

A) Gain of $12,000 taxed at 15% and a loss of $20,000 deductible against ordinary income

B) Net loss of $8,000 that is fully deductible against ordinary income in the current year

C) Net loss of $8,000 that results in no deduction in the current year, but can be carried forward to offset capital gains for the next year

D) $3,000 deduction against ordinary income with a $5,000 capital loss carried forward to offset income for next year

The explanation to the answer is therefore presented as follows:

The first step is to compute the net capital gain (loss) is as follows:

Particulars                                                                            $  

Gain from the sale of stock in ABC Corporation          10,000

Gain from the sale of stock in XYZ Corporation            2,000

Loss from the sale of corporate bonds                     <u>  (20,000)  </u>

Net capital gain (loss)                                              <u>     (8,000)  </u>

In the US, individuals are allowed to use up to $3,000 to reduce their taxable income in the first year of the loss, while the remaining capital losses will be carried over to the next years.

From the net capital gain computed above, the correct option is D. That is, the $8,000 loss will be treated for tax purposes as a $3,000 deduction against ordinary income in the current year with the remaining $5,000 capital loss carried forward to offset income for next year.

Aliun [14]

Answer:

Reserves = $105,000

Required reserve = $30,000

Excess reserve = $75,000

Explanation:

Given:

Required reserve ratio = 0.20

Check able deposit = $150,000

Outstanding loans = $45,000

Computation:

Reserves = Check able deposit - Outstanding loan

Reserves = $150,000 - $45,000

Reserves = $105,000

Required reserve = Check able deposit[Required reserve ratio]

Required reserve = $150,000[0.20]

Required reserve = $30,000

Excess reserve = Reserves - Required reserve

Excess reserve = $105,000 - $30,000

Excess reserve = $75,000
