List at least 6 things your credit card company must clearly disclose to consumers.
never [62]

It is important to review the credit card disclosure for information on APRs, Penalties, Grace periods, Minimum financing charges, Calculation methodologies, and Fees.

An explanation of all the fees, charges, interest rates, and conditions that a consumer can encounter when using the credit card is contained in a credit card disclosure. The legislation requires disclosure of this information by organizations that provide credit cards. The disclosures on credit cards offer clear information about costs and charges. They also encourage rivalry. To allow consumers to evaluate credit cards more effectively, it is legally necessary of all credit card companies to give the same price information. They can pick the one that better serves their tastes in terms of price.

The interest rate that a client will pay on outstanding balances is the most obvious example of a cost listed on a credit card disclosure. Basic elements like the monthly payment deadlines will also be covered in the disclosure.

Alika [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is (a)- Parallel teams.

Explanation:

The majority of the teams in which the manager or boss assigns and directs the work of the team, normally what we see is the so-called "parallel work" in which each team member develops only one functionality planned in the scope of the project . This type of organization gives the administrator the feeling that several of the functionalities are being developed at the same time, which should ensure that the project is not delayed. Well, if we analyze this with a little more care we will see that what happens is exactly the opposite.

Fortune Enterprises is an all-equity firm that is considering issuing $13.5 million of perpetual debt. The interest rate is 10%.
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

d. Debt holders get $0 mil. under the unlevered plan vs. 0.6075 mil. under the levered plan

Explanation:

interests paid to debt holders = $13,500,000 x 10% = $1,350,000

generally, interest revenue is taxed as ordinary revenue = corporate income tax rate (if debt holder is a business) or personal income tax (if debt holder is an individual).

under the first plan, debt holders get nothing because there is no outstanding debt since the company is an all equity firm.

under the second plan, if the personal tax rate on interest income is 55%, which is really high, the debt holders will earn $1,350,000 x (1 - 55%) = $607,500
