Answer:
Missing word <em>"a. What must the six-month risk-free rate be in Japan"</em>
<em />
a. Spot rate = 1 US $ = 1.2377 Aus.dollar
Forward rate = 1 US $ = 1.2356 Aus.dollar
<u>1.2356</u> = <u>(1 + i Ad)</u>
1.2377 (1 + 0.05)
0.9983 * (1.05) = 1 + i.Ad
1.048215 = 1 + i.Ad
i.Ad = 1.048215 - 1
i.Ad = 0.048215
i.Ad = 4.82%
b. Spot rate = 1 US $ = 100.3300 Japan Yen
Forward rate = 1 US $ = 100.0500 Japan Yen
<u>100.0500</u> = <u>(1 + i Ad)</u>
100.3300 (1 + 0.05)
0.9972 * (1.05) = 1 + i.Ad
1.04706 = 1 + i.Ad
i.Ad = 1.04706 - 1
i.Ad = 0.04706
i.Ad = 4.71%
Answer: Option B
Explanation: In simple words, conflict of interest refers to a situation when a person have the power to make a certain decision from which he or she gets to have some special benefit.
Therefore, conflict of interest always results in the scope bias. As the individual in the power can use his or her position that can lead to benefit of him or loss of others or both.
Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B.
Answer:
4.51
Explanation:
We have to calculate fva. The future value of annuity
Here is the formula
Fva = A [( + I)^n-1/I]
Where a = annuity
I = interest rate
N = number of years
Inserting into formula
1[(1+0.08)^4 - 1/0.08]
= 1[(1.36049 - 1)/0.08]
= 4.51
Therefore the future investment is $4.51
Answer:
D) 3.48
Explanation:
Current Year Sales = $700
Growth rate = 15%
Projected Sales=$700*15% +$700
Which is $805
Required inventory = $30.2 + 0.25*projected sales
Req.Inv = $30.2 + 0.25($805)
Req.Inv = $231.45
Inventory turn over = projected sales/Req.inv
$805/$231.45
Inventory turn over = 3.48 times
Answer:
No it wont have enough money to build a warehouse in two years.
Explanation:
Firstly we are given that the warehouse is $1 million so the company needs to save this amount of money in two years time.
We know that the company has invested $500000 to date therefore we need to calculate if this $50000 per quarter investment will cover the the other portion for $500000 to meet the warehouse cost of $1 million so we will use the future value annuity formula to calculate this which is :
Fv = C[((1+i)^n -1)/i]
where Fv will be the future value after two years of the $50000 investment
C is the periodic payment of $50000
i is the interest rate per period which is 6% per quarter
n is the number of periods the payment is done here it is 4 x 2years= 8 periods / investments of $50000 that will be done.
thereafter we substitute on the above formula:
Fv = 50000[((1+6%)^8 - 1)/6%]
Fv = $494873.40
then we combine this amount to $500000 to see if it reaches $1 million
$494873.40+ $500000 = $994873.40 which is close to the warehouse cost of $1 million but it does not reach it so the company wont have enough money to purchase the warehouse.
