Answer:

Yes the company must recognise the effects of this ruling.

Explanation:

As provided the law suit was initiated in the year 20x2, because of the activity happened in April 20x2.

Accordingly, company was already prepared for a liability of $100,000.

Whenever an event that occurs after the balance sheet is a mere confirmation to what was expected on balance sheet date, or is in alignment with things on record on the balance sheet date, it shall be provided in the balance sheet of that year.

In the given case the law suit was pending on the balance sheet date and was recorded as a liability then, now after the declaration by the judge, the additional liability of $20,000 shall be provided in the financial books of year 20x2.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In a competitive market, if production (and consumption) continues until the marginal benefit of one more unit equals marginal cost, then total surplus is maximized.

As for any extra unit produced

Marginal Benefit > Marginal cost = Surplus

Marginal Benefit = Marginal cost = No Surplus / No loss

Marginal Benefit > Marginal cost = loss

When your Marginal benefit is maximum and Marginal cost is minimum then the surplus will be maximized.

Most efficient situation in which benefit is maximum and the cost is minimum results in maximized surplus.

Suppose that the spot price of the euro is currently $1.30. The 1-year futures price is $1.35. Is the interest rate higher in th
valkas [14]

Answer:

The interest rate is higher in the US.

Explanation:

The forward price is calculated using the following formula,

F= S ( 1+Rd / 1+Rf)^t

where,

  • F = Forward rate
  • S = Spot rate
  • Rd = Nominal interest rate in domestic market
  • Rf = Nominal interest rate in foreign market
  • t = time in years

We consider that the domestic market is the US and the domestic currency is the USD. Thus, it is a direct quote where 1 EUR = 1.3 USD

The forward price ER is more than the Sport ER only when the interest rate in domestic market is more than the interest rate in foreign market and as a result, the value of domestic currency against a foreign currency in the forward market depreciates.

We can see this by the following example,

Say Spot rate is $1.3 per 1 EUR and the interest rate in US is 10% while that in Euro zone is 5%. When we calculate the forward ER we will see that 1 EUR will buy us more USD in forward (more than 1.3 USD)

F= 1.3 * (1.1 / 1.05)^1   => $1.362 PER 1EUR

You save $5,000.00 and invest 60% of it in stocks while leaving the rest in a savings account earning a 4.9% APR. The stock incr
LiRa [457]
Amount invested in stocks 5,000 X 0.60 = 3,000

After one year gains 9%
3,000 X ( 1 + 0.09) = 3,270

After second year loses 4%
3,270 X ( 1 - 0.04) = 3,139.2 amount after second year

So Stocks gained 139.2 ( 3139.2 - 3000)

Amount of saving account
5,000 X 0.40 = 2,000

After 2 years
2,200 X ( 1 + 0.049)^(2) = 2,200.802

So gained 200.802 (2200.802 - 2000)

Total amount after 2 years
3,139.2 + 2,200.802 = 5,340.002

Gained 340.002 (5340.002 -5000)
