Answer:

Corporations of the United States should be tracked by the U.S government to ensure that workers' rights in developing countries should not be compromised.

Explanation:

In many developing countries political leaders are afraid that if wage rates are enforced on big corporations they could be forced off global markets. Foreign investment capital is significant to the economy of developing countries and there is always fear that the loss of such investment may break the economies of these countries. The government of the U.S should ensure vigorous monitoring programs that require businesses to report the location of international factories publicly so that human rights organizations can track their actions independently.

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

.4792 or 47.92%

Explanation:

The computation of the weight of C is shown below:

But before that first determine the following things

For A is

= 100 × $22

= $2200

For B

= 600 × $17

= $10200

For C

= 400 × $46

= $18400

For D

= 200 × $38

= $7600

So,

Total = 38400

And, finally

weight of C is

= $18,400 ÷ $38,400

= .4792 or 47.92%

Arjen owns investment A and 1 bond B. The total value of his holdings is 1,529 dollars. Investment A is expected to pay annual c
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

In order to find the present value of the bond we have to calculate the present value of investment A and subtract is from 1529. We can find the present value of A by discounting all its cash flows.

As the first cash flow is received today and the last will be received 3 years form now there will be a total of 4 cash flows

1) 218.19 (Will not be discounted as we are receiving it today in the present)

2) 218.19/1.0987 (Discount by 1 year as cash will be received in 1 year)

3) 218.19/1.0987^2 (Discount by 2 years as cash will be received in 2 years)

4) 218.19/ 1.0987^3 (Discount by 3 years as cash will be received in 3 years)

= 218.19 + 198.58 + 180.74+ 164.51 = 762.02

PV of Bond = 1529-762.09= 766.91

Semi annual coupons mean 2 payments a year. Bond B matures in 23 years which means a total of 46 payments (23*2). N=46. A coupon rate of 6.4 percent means that the bond pays $64 (0.064*1000) each year. $64 divided by 2 is 32 which is the amount of each semi annual payment Arjen receives. Pv= 766.91 FV = 1000

In a financial calculator put

PV= -766.91

N= 46

FV=1000

PMT= 32

and compute I

I is 4.38 and we will multiply it by 2 because the payments are semi annual. So we will get an I of 8.76

YTM= 0.0876

Account A pays simple interest.
maw [93]

Answer:

Explanation:

                          Interest Factors

<u>Periods          6%       7%          8%                  9%            10%             11 %</u>

1                 1.0600      1.0700     1.0800        1.0900     1.1000        1.1100

2                1.1236      1.1449         1.1664         1.1881      1.2100        1.2321

3                1.1910       1.2250      1.2597         1.2950     1.3310         1.3676

4                1.2625      1.3108     1.3605          1.4116       1.4641          1.5181

1)

Future value paying simple interest = Principal + [( principal * interest) * investment period]

Future value paying simple interest = $2,000 + [ ( $2,000 * 9%) * 3]

Future value paying simple interest = $2,000 + 540

Future value paying simple interest = $2,540

2)

Future value paying compound interest = Present value * ( 1 + interest)n

Future value paying compound interest = $2,000 * ( 1 + 0.09)3

Future value paying compound interest = $2,000 * 1.295029

Future value paying compound interest = $2,590.058

3)

Difference = $2,590.058 - 2,540

Difference = $50.058

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The current price of the stock is $68.42

Explanation:

The dividends on a stock that pays a constant dividend and will cease paying dividend after a defined period can be treated as an annuity. The dividends are constant and are paid after equal interval of time and for a defined period of time. To calculate the price of the share today, we will use the formula for the present value of ordinary annuity. The formula is,

Present value = 9.8 * [ 1 - (1+0.11)^-14 / 0.11 ]

Present value or current price of the stock = $68.42

Therefore the  journal entries relating to the building for the fifth year is: Debit Depreciation expense $10,500; Credit Accumulated depreciation   $10,500.

The complete question is:

Bailand Company purchased a building for $148,000 that had an estimated residual value of $8,000 and an estimated service life of 10 years. Bailand purchased the building 4 years ago and has used straight-line depreciation. At the beginning of the fifth year (before it records depreciation expense for the year), the following independent situations occur:

1. Bailand estimates that the asset has 8 years’ life remaining (for a total of 12 years).

2. Bailand changes to the sum-of-the-years’-digits method.

3. Bailand discovers that the estimated residual value has been ignored in the computation of depreciation expense.

Required: For each of the independent situations, prepare all the journal entries relating to the building for the fifth year. Ignore income taxes.
