Thomas needs to think what it is he needs to buy the car. That is cash (money). What does he need to do to get money? He needs a job. Once he has a job and starts getting paid, he needs to SAVE the amount required for the down payment, unless he has the money to buy it cash! Meaning he can pay it in full. If he is only paying for the down payment, then he needs to make sure he has good credit to qualify for a loan on the remaining balance.
All in all he needs a plan!
Answer:
The 52 of its portfolio should be allocated to the zero-coupon bonds to immunie if there are no other assets funding the plan.
Explanation:
the duration of the perpetuity = (1+YTM)/YTM
= (1+0.04)/0.04
= 26 years
the weights of the bonds = w
5*w + 26*(1-w) = 15
5*w + 26 - 26*w = 15
21*w = 11
w = 0.52
Therefore, The 52 of its portfolio should be allocated to the zero-coupon bonds to immunie if there are no other assets funding the plan.
Answer:
$454,000
Explanation:
Ending inventory is the value of the inventory in the store at the end of the year.
Goods are purchased and added to the the beginning inventory, the sale for the period is deducted from it. the residual value is the value of ending Inventory.
In This question it is assumed that there is $26,000 of beginning inventory of the goods. $470,000 of the purchases were made and at the end of the year there was $42,000 balance of inventory.
We can calculate the deduction value as follow
Ending Inventory = Beginning Inventory + Purchases - deduction
$42000 = $26,000 + $470,000 - deduction
$42000 = $496,000 - deduction
Deduction = $496,000 - $42,000 = $454,000
