Explanation:
(a) December 1 Cash Debit $18,000
Unearned revenue Credit $18,000
<em>Note: The company received the money in advance for a contract to do during December to April. Therefore, they received cash while a liability increased due to receiving advance money.</em>
(b) December 31 Unearned revenue Debit $3,600
Service revenue Credit $3,600
<em>Note: As the company started performing, after the completion of 1st month, i.e., December 1 to December 31, the advance money started expiring because of providing services. Moreover, as the service is performed evenly for 5 months, the 1st month's revenue = $(18,000/5) = $3,600.</em>
Answer:
$1,115.58
Explanation:
Calculation to determine how much should you be willing to pay for this bond
Using this formula
Bond Price= cupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]
Where,
Par value= $1,000
Cupon= $35
Time= 10*4= 40 quarters
Rate= 0.12/4= 0.03
Let plug in the formula
Bond Price= 35*{[1 - (1.03^-40)] / 0.03} + [1,000/(1.03^40)]
Bond Price= 809.02 + 306.56
Bond Price= $1,115.58
Therefore how much should you be willing to pay for this bond is $1,115.58
Answer: Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
Correct Option: Normal profits because economic profits will attract new firms and there are no entry restrictions.
In a monopolistically competitive market, firms will earn an economic profit in the short run, so new firms attracted with these profits and decided to enter into the market in the long run.
There is no barriers on entry and exit of the firms in the monopolistically competitive market. When new firms enters into the market, as a result supply of differentiated products increases.
This causes the firm's market demand curve to shift leftwards. It will continue shifting to the left in the firm market demand curve till the point where it is nearly tangent to the average total cost curve.
At this point, firms earns zero normal profit and can earn normal profits in the long run same as a perfectly competitive firm.
Answer:
The risk premium on market is 8%
Explanation:
The CAPM or Capital Asset Pricing Model is used to calculate the required rate of return on a stock which is the minimum return that is expected or required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk as measured by the beta of the stock.
The formula to calculate r under the CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
- rRF is the risk free rate
- rpM is the risk premium on market
To calculate the risk premium on market, we will input the available values for r, rRF and beta in the equation above.
0.158 = 0.07 + 1.1 * rpM
0.158 - 0.07 = 1.1 * rpM
0.088 / 1.1 = rpM
rpM = 0.08 or 8%
So, the risk premium on market is 8%
