Answer:
False. Even Information Technology can be considered as capital acquisition.
Explanation:
Capital acquisition means the way through which new assets are purchased for business expansion and growth.
Equipments, real estate and construction are all tangible assets and considered as capital assets whose life is usually greater than 1 year.
Any acquisition which serves a business for long term which is generally for more than one year shall be termed as capital acquisition.
Even software and patents acquired can be termed as capital acquisition if useful life of those exceeds an year.
Thus, Information technology can be considered a capital acquisition if it's useful life for business is more than an year.
Answer:
$140,880
Explanation:
Taxable Income:
= Pre tax financial income - Interest income from municipal bond - fine for dumping hazardous waste + Depreciation as per books - Depreciation as per income tax
= $553,000 - $74,000 - $25,000 + $62,400 - $46,800
= $469,600
Therefore,
Income tax payable = Taxable Income × Tax rate
= $469,600 × 30%
= $140,880
Answer:
Yes they can be used to purchase goods or invest in a business.
Explanation:
Loans from formal channels like banks and government agencies are usually given for an specific purpose if you own a business or can be handed out for any type of personal use if you request them as an individual. This applies to developed and developing countries.
Loans from informal channels can also be used by a business, specially small businesses, and obviously personal use. Large businesses will probably not take a loan from an informal channel since the interest rates will probably be higher and the amounts will be too small. But even on developed countries, someone who has just graduated can ask his/her parents or a friend for a loan to start a small business or buy a car. Informal channels are based on personal relationships and even though they don't represent a large percentage of loans in developed countries, they also exist.
Answer:
0.296875
Explanation:
Given the following :
Probability distribution of risky funds :
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - stock fund(S) - - bond fund(B)
Expected return - - - 15% - - - - - - - - - - 9%
Std - - - - - - - - - - - - - 32% - - - - - - - - - - 23%
Correlation between funds return = 0.15
Sure rate = 5.5%
To calculate the Sharpe ratio we use the formula :
Sharpe Ratio = (Expected Return of Investment - Risk Free Rate) / Standard Deviation of excess return of investment
For the stock fund :
Expected return = 15%
Risk free rate = market sure rate = 5.5%
Standard deviation = 32%
Sharpe ratio of stock fund :
(15% - 5.5%) / 32%
= 9.5% / 32%
= 0.296875
For Bond fund :
Expected return = 9%
Risk free rate = market sure rate = 5.5%
Standard deviation = 23%
Sharpe ratio of bond fund :
(9% - 5.5%) / 23%
= 3.5% / 23%
= 0.1521739
Therefore the Sharpe ratio of the best feasible CAL is the higher of the two ratios which is 0.296875
