Suppose a firm’s managers receive bonuses that increase with the size of the firm’s ROE, which was 30% last year and is forecast

ed to remain at this level during the coming year provided the firm takes on no new expansion projects. Its cost of capital is 10%. Now the firm has the opportunity to make a new investment that promises 20% return on invest capital. Which of the following statements is not correct?a. The example in this question demonstrates the serious weakness in using ROE as the primary criterion in setting executive compensation.b. The new project should be rejected because, if it is accepted, the firm's ROE will decline from 30% because the new ROE will be a weighted average of the old 30% and the 20% returns on the new investment.c. The new project should be accepted because it expected return exceeds the cost of the capital that will be used to finance it.

Answer:

.b. The new project should be rejected because, if it is accepted, the firm's ROE will decline from 30% because the new ROE will be a weighted average of the old 30% and the 20% returns on the new investment

Explanation:

ROE means return on equity

ROE = Net income / shareholders equity

A project should be undertaken if the ROE of the project is greater than the cost of equity

Your healthy 63-year-old neighbor is about to retire and comes to you for advice. From talking with her, you find out she was pl
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Both mutual funds and money market funds are similar in the sense that they pool money from several investors in a variety of instruments. The difference is that money market funds pool the money in very liquid, short-term securities, while mutual funds do the same but in less liquid, longer-term securities.

The 63-year-old neighbor should therefore split the money around 60/40, 60% of the funds for mutual funds, in order to have long-term security, and 40% in the money market funds, in order to have quick cash available when needed.

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

If the keyword an advertiser is bidding on is used in the ad and on the landing page, then the advertiser will receive a higher Quality Score for

ad relevance.

Explanation:

Ad relevance is a component that gives an advertiser higher quality score.  It is an indication that the keyword is optimized to meet the customer's search query.  It shows how closely the ad matches the customer's search because a correlation exists between the keyword, the ad, and the post-click landing page.  It is paramount to achieve ad relevance in any pay-per-click advertising (PPC), otherwise called search engine marketing (SEM) or search advertising, to justify the ad costs.
