Answer:
The correct answer is FALSE.
- First it's not sound investment advice to put all his savings into an investment because as the narrative rightly points out, he may have other needs.
- Second, high growth stock are also
- high risk
- they only pay in the long term only if the company is successful because dividends are re-invested which is one of the reasons the companies grow quickly.
Although they are high risk, they also have great advantages such as:
- High growth rate: this means if all goes well David will enjoy a good return on his investment;
- It's also a way to protect his money from erosion by inflation
What can David do?
Subject to the advise of a professional investment professional
- David needs to take into consideration his immediate needs, set aside some funds to take care of that.
- Invest the balance into a mix of high growth rate stock which are high yielding but risky and low growth rate but secure investment like government bonds.
- Start a small business by the side or get a job in the interim as he continues with his new life.
Cheers!

Answer:
The interest expense company recorded during Year 2 on the 7% debentures is $27,535,600
Explanation:
As the interest expense is different from the interest payment made on the debenture. It also includes some other costs. Effective interest rate includes the effects of all related costs of debentures. So the interest expense of a debenture will base the effective interest rate of the debenture.
We can calculate the Interest expense on 7% debtures as below
Interest Expense = Value of Debenture x Effective interest rate
Interest Expense = $188,600,000 x 14.6%
Interest Expense = $27,535,600
Answer:
PMT = $1875.00
Explanation:
The annuity refers to a series of fixed payments made after an equal interval of time and for a definite time period. The formula for the present value of annuity is,
<u />
<u>For ordinary annuity</u>
PV of annuity = PMT * [(1 - (1+IN)^-n) / IN]
Plugging in the values for the available variables. We calculate the PMT to be,
14130.15 = PMT * [(1 - (1+0.08)^-12) / 0.08]
14130.15 = PMT * 7.536078017
14130.15 / 7.536078017 = PMT
PMT = $1875.000493 rounded off to $1875.00
