Answer: C) The implied country risk premium of the foreign government bond is positive.

Explanation:

Given that the effective foreign risk-free rate is 6.336% and the interest on the foreign Govt. bonds is 7.5%, this would mean that the foreign govt. is offering higher on it's bonds than its risk free rate which means there is a premium.

The premium is;

= 7.5% - 6.366%

= 1.134%

This means that the implied country risk premium of the foreign government bond is positive.

Scottso Corporation applies overhead using a normal costing approach based upon machine-hours. Budgeted factory overhead was $26
seropon [69]

Answer:

Overhead application rate

= <u>Budgeted overhead</u>

  Budgeted machine hours

= <u>$266,400</u>

  18,500 hours

= $14.40 per machine hour

Overhead applied

= Overhead application rate x Actual machine hours

= $14.40 x 19,050 hours

= $274,320

Under-applied overhead

= Overhead applied - Actual factory overhead

= $274,320 - $287,920

= $13,600

Explanation:

In this question, there is need to determine the overhead application rate, which is the ratio of budgeted factory overhead to budgeted machine hours. Then, we will calculate the overhead applied, which is overhead application rate multiplied by actual machine hours. Under-applied overhead is the difference between overhead applied and actual factory overhead.                              .

You are considering purchasing a new truck that will cost you $34,000. The dealer offers you 1.9% APR within monthly compounding
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: $31,513.65

my monthly payment (principal) would be closest to $31,514

Explanation:

Using compound interest formula below to find the principal

A = p (1 + r/n)^nt

A= amount = $34,000

r = annual nominal rate = 1.9% = 0.019

n = number of compounding ; monthly compounding means 12 interest payments in a year

P= principal

t= time in years 48months = 48/12years = 4years

34,000 = p (1 + 0.019/12)^12(4)

34,000 = p (1 + 0.00158333333)^48

34,000 = p ( 1.00158333333)^48

34,000 = 1.07889755p

Divide both sides by 1.07889755

P = $31,513.6502

≈$31,514 to nearest whole number.
