Dividend paid = Dividend declared - Increase in Dividend payable

= $102,000 - $5,100

= $96,900

Loss on sale of investment = Sale of investment of amount realized - Investment cost

= $91,800 - $102,000

= -$10,200

The positive amount represents the cash inflow and the negative amount represents the outflow of cash

In a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policy, the user acceptance component may include separation of private data from business dat

docker41 [41]

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

When saying data we can be referring to both private information of the owner of the Smartphone as well as information of the organization since the user uses the phone to connect to services provided by it, which refers to the name of BYOD. The “Bring Your Own Device” (BYOD) phenomenon is based on the modality in which members of an organization are authorized to use their own personal mobile devices (smartphones, tablets, notebooks, etc.) in the activities of the organization where they work connected to the organizational network. The use of their devices to perform their work tasks in the organization causes what was a personal device to become part of the organizational network, with the problems that this could lead to.

Malone Imports stock should return 12 percent in a boom, 10 percent in a normal economy, and 2 percent in a recession. The proba

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

6.11%

Explanation:

For computing the variance, first we have to determine the expected return which is shown below:

= (Expected return of the boom × weightage of boom) + (expected return of the normal economy × weightage of normal economy) + (expected return of the recession × weightage of recession)

= (12% × 5%) + (10% × 85%) + (2% × 10%)

= 0.6% + 8.5% + 0.2%

= 9.30%

Now the variance would equal to the

= Weightage × (Return - Expected Return) ^2

For boom:

= 5% × (12% - 9.3%) ^2

= 0.3645

For normal economy:

= 85% × (10% - 9.3%) ^2

= 0.4165

For recession:

= 10% × (2% - 9.3%) ^2

= 5.329

So, the total variance would be

= 0.3645 + 0.4165 + 5.329

= 6.11%

Net interest margin—often referred to as spread—is the difference between the rate banks pay on deposits and the rate they charg

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

(a) $P(X\:>\:5.40)=0.9938$

(b) $P(X\:$

Explanation:

(a) Find the z-value that corresponds to 5.40 percent

. $Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$

$Z=\frac{5.40-4.15}{0.5}$

$Z=\frac{1.25}{0.5}=2.5$

Hence the net interest margin of 5.40 percent is 2.5 standard deviation above the mean.

The area to the left of 2.5 from the standard normal distribution table is 0.9938.The probability that a randomly selected U.S. bank will have a net interest margin that exceeds 5.40 percent is 1-0.9938=0.0062

(b) The z-value that corresponds to 4.40 percent is $Z=\frac{4.40-4.15}{0.5}=0.5$ The net interest margin of 4.40 percent is 0.5 standard deviation above the mean.

Using the normal distribution table, the area under the curve to the left of 0.5 is 0.6915

Therefore the probability that a randomly selected U.S. bank will have a net interest margin less than 4.40 percent is 0.6915

We substitute the 1.65 into the formula and solve for X. $1.65=\frac{X-4.15}{0.5}$

$1.65\times 0.5=X-4.15$ $0.825=X-4.15$

$0.825+4.15=X$

$4.975=X$

A bank that wants its net interest margin to be less than the net interest margins of 95 percent of all U.S. banks should set its net interest margin to 4.975 percent.
