Answer:

E. They rarely produce net cash flows.

Explanation:

When a company engages with <em>capital budgeting</em>, it assesses potential and planned investments. The goal of each investment is to produce a difference in cash inflows vs. cash outflows, which is the net cash flow.

Therefore, all investments have a tendency of producing a cash flow, since that is the reason why companies opt for capital budgeting (investments) in the start.

It is true that the outcome of capital budgeting is uncertain. Also, it requires significant financial resources, and is a long-term decision.

A jury must decide whether a defendant, already judged should receive the death penalty. They are told that the defendant commit

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

d.mitigating

Explanation:

This is a mitigating factor. A mitigating factor is a fact of relevance as it can reveal the motivations of the crime. Although not sufficient to absorb the defendant, except in cases of self-defense, when there is evidence of mitigating factors, this can be used to soften a defendant's penalty if it is proven that the motive for the crime was not misleading. A good example is the case in which the defendant committed a murder, and he was sentenced to death, but there is a mitigating factor: the defendant suffered physical abuse for years and killed his attacker. The jury can understand that the defendant committed the crime due to the suffering caused by the victim, which would be different from a crime motivated by trite motives. Thus, the death penalty can be understood as disproportionate and it can be reversed to a less severe penalty.

James Corporation is planning to issue bonds with a face value of $500,000 and a coupon rate of 6 percent. The bonds mature in 1

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Case A $581,757.17

Case B $500,000.00

Case C $416,910.21

Explanation:

Current price of a bond

The market price of a bond can be computed using the pv formula in excel, which is given as :

=pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

Where rate is the yield to maturity on the bond divided by 2 since the bond in question is semi-annual interest paying bond i.e

Case A 4%/2=2%

Case B 6%/2=3%

Case C 8.5%/2=4.25%

The nper is the time to maturity of the bond multiplied by 2 for the same reason cited for yield to maturity i.e 10 years *2=20

The pmt is the semi-annual coupon interest payable by the bond i.e 6%/2*$500,000=$15,000

The fv is the future value of the bond given as $500,000

Case A

=-pv(2%,20,15000,500000)

Pv= 581,757.17

Case B

=-pv(3%,20,15000,500000)

PV=$$500,000.00

Case C

=-pv(4.25%,20,15000,500000)

PV=$416,910.21

Exercise 14-08 a-b (Video) (Part Level Submission) Cheyenne Corp. incurred the following costs while manufacturing its product.

erastova [34]

Answer:

(a) Cost of goods manufactured = $347,400

(b) Cost of goods sold = $370,900

Explanation:

Note: The requirement of this question is not complete. The complete requirement is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

(a) Compute cost of goods manufactured.

(b) Compute cost of goods sold.

(a) Compute cost of goods manufactured.

This can be computed as follows:

Cost of goods manufactured = Direct materials used + Labor costs of assembly-line workers + Depreciation on plant + Factory supplies used + Property taxes on plant + Work in Process at January 1 - Work-in-process at December 31 = $129,100 + $111,300 + $64,600 + $28,700 + $16,000 + $14,500 - $16,800 = $347,400

(b) Compute cost of goods sold.

This can be computed as follows:

Cost of goods sold = Finished goods inventory at January 1 + Cost of goods manufactured - Finished goods inventory at December 31 = $69,500 + $347,400 - $46,000 = $370,900

Which is the best definition of insurance:

vitfil [10]

Answer:

I'm trying to decide between B and D, but I think it's D

Explanation:

Insurance does cost a lot, but it's so you have a bit more protection if something happens.

For example:

Let's say you get into a car accident, and you need to stay in the hospital to recover, because you broke a bone, and afterward, you need a prescription of pain medicine. Insurance would pay for your hospital stay I believe, and also pay for part of your prescription. But it costs a lot of money, and your prescription might be really expensive, and there might have been something with your hospital stay that insurance didn't pay for. So basically, Insurance costs a lot, but doesn't pay for much (answer D).
