Answer:

If Chicago municipal bonds yield  is 10% then Carter's treasurer make indifferent between the two.

Explanation:

Because Treasury Bond is exempt from tax income and both have same maturity, and they are equally risky and liquid; we then have the equation as below

Treasury bonds yield = Chicago municipal bonds yield after tax

⇔ 6% = Chicago municipal bonds yield * (1 - tax rate 40%)

⇔ 6% = Chicago municipal bonds yield * 0.6

⇒ Chicago municipal bonds yield = 6%/  0.6 = 10%

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

$3,791

Explanation:

Given that

Expected amount received = $1,000

Number of years = 10 years

Rate of interest = 5

So, the present value of this annuity  would be

= Expected amount received × PVIFA factor at 5 years at 10%

= $1,000 × 3.7908

= $3,791

Refer to the PVIFA table

Simply we multiplied the expected amount received by the PVIFA factor

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

DR Allowance for Doubtful Accounts                    2,000

CR Accounts Receivable—A. Hopkins                                            2,000

Explanation:

Because Gideon uses the allowance method, when a debt is written off, it will be written off from the allowance that was created for doubtful debts instead of directly to the bad debt account.

Accounts Receivable will be credited to show that it is decreasing and Allowance for Doubtful debt will be debited because expenses are debited when they increase.

Assume that the price elasticity of demand for movie theatres is 20.85 during all evening shows but for all afternoon shows the
zalisa [80]

Answer:

d. Need more information.

Explanation:

Demand elasticity is a microeconomic concept that aims to measure the sensitivity of demand in the face of price changes.

When calculated, elasticity reaches values that signal consumers' response to price. If elasticity is a value between 0 and 1, then demand is inelastic - little sensitive to price changes. If demand is greater than 1, this means elastic - very sensitive to price changes.

The numbers presented by the question show a highly elastic demand for theater ticket prices in both cases, especially in the afternoon shift. Thus, the theater could lower the price of both, because in elastic demands, a negative variation in price will increase the demand. However, this is not enough to calculate profit maximization since the profit calculation formula also involves costs, which are not described in the question.
