For the following investments, identify whether they are: Trading debt securities. Available-for-sale debt securities. Held-to-m
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

(a) A bond that will mature in 4 years was bought 1 month ago when the price dropped. As soon as the value increases, which is expected next month, it will be sold.  - <u>Trading Debt Securities</u>

Trading debt securities such as these are held only for a short time before they are sold with the goal being short term profit.

(b) 10% of the outstanding stock of Farm-Co was purchased. The company is planning on eventually getting a total of 30% of its outstanding stock.  - <u>None of the Above</u>

This is an Equity Investment.

(c) Bonds were purchased in December of this year. The bonds are expected to be sold in January of next year.  - <u>Trading Debt Securities</u>

Like the bond in (a), this is being held for a short while only and then it will be sold so it is a Trading debt security.

(d) Bonds that will mature in 5 years are purchased. The company would like to hold them until they mature, but money has been tight recently and they may need to be sold.  - <u>Available-for-sale debt securities</u>

Available for sale debt securities are to be sold before maturity and therefore have no certain selling time. The bond above has no selling time as it might be sold at any point so it is an Available-for-sale debt security.

(e) Preferred stock was purchased for its constant dividend. The company is planning to hold the preferred stock for a long time.  -<u> None of the above.</u>

This is an Equity investment as well.

(f) A bond that matures in 10 years was purchased. The company is investing money set aside for an expansion project planned 10 years from now. - <u>Held-to-maturity debt securities.</u>

Held to Maturity bonds are bought with no intention of selling and the company hopes to hold them till they mature like this bond which will be held for 10 years.

emmainna [20.7K]

Operations support systems are generally used by managers at lower levels of an organization. Therefore, the correct answer is option 'D'.

An operational support system (OSS) is a collection of computer programs or information technology (IT) system used by communications service providers to monitor, control, analyze, and manage a computer or telephone network system.

OSS software is designed specifically for telecommunications service providers and is primarily used to support network processes such as network inventory management, network component configuration, service provisioning, and fault management.

With the proliferation of new broadband and Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) systems, OSS and network management are increasingly being applied to home networks.

An OSS is also referred to as a business support system (BSS).

Hence, the correct option is 'D'.
