A stock's price fluctuations are approximately normally distributed with a mean of $104.50 and a standard deviation of $23.62. Y

denpristay [2]

Answer:

$ 74.23

Explanation:

We are given the following:

mean, μ = $ 104.50

standard deviation, σ = $ 23.62

Using the z-score table, we have

P(Z < z) = 10% (since we are evaluating lowest 10% of values)

hence P(Z < z) = 0.10

P(Z < -1.282 ) = 0.10

z = -1.282 (this evaluates to 0.1 on the z-score table)

Using z-score formula,

x = z *σ + μ

substituting the values,

x =- - 1.282 * 23.62 + 104.50

= 74.23

The most for the stock is $ 74.23

On December 31, 2018, Gardner Company holds debt securities classified as HTM with a face amount of $100,000 and a carrying valu

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

$2,850

Explanation:

Given the following :

Face value of security = $100,000

Carrying value = $95,000

Effective interest rate = 6%

Interest paid semianually = $2500

The effective interest revenue recognized for the six months ended December 31, 2018 is:

IF effective interest rate = 6%

Semiannual interest = 6% / 2 = 3%

Therefore effective interest revenue for six months will be the product of the carrying value and the interest rate within the six months period :

3% = 0.03

0.03 * $95,000 = $2,850
