Internal Control is designed to ensure all of the items described in the answer.

Explanation:

Internal control refers to the control measures adopted by an entity so as to ensure compliance with legal framework, check frauds and errors and for reliable financial reporting.

Compliance procedures are the processes designed to check whether internal controls exist in an organization and if they do, whether such controls are operating effectively.

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: 14.84%

Explanation:

To calculate the rate of return the investors received we will do a simple return formula to find out by how much, in terms of the Opening NAV, the fund has increased.

To find out how much the fund has increased by we can add up all the figures then deduct the opening balance.

= 39.71 + 0.64 + 1.13 - 36.12

= $5.36

$5.36 is the how much the fund has increased by.

Expressing it in percentage of the opening NAV per share we have,

= 5.36/36.12

= 0.14839424141

= 14.84%

14.84% is the rate of return that an investor received on the Yachtsman Fund in 2016.

Wewaii [24]

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

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

B. Reduce the Money Market Fund allocation by 30% (to 10%) and put the released funds in AAA-rated corporate bonds

Explanation:

First of all, since the investor is risk averse and cannot afford to lose money on any risky investment, she should change the mix of her investment portfolio but without increasing risks. Corporate bonds that are AAA-rated carry a very low risk and pay a little higher than money market funds. So a small decrease in money market fund assets and an increase in AAA-rated bonds should yield a slightly higher return.

Investing in equities would be too risky and US Treasuries pay even less interests than money market funds.

tatiyna

Answer:

28.85

Explanation

Keanu has decided to save a fixed amount of 70,000 for a given period. We would need to calculate the number of years to achieve 7,796,223 using the FVIFA formula (Future value interest for an annuity)

Fixed payment× FVIFA=Future value

<em>FVIFA</em> = $\frac{(1+r)^{n} - 1}{r}$

where r is the periodic rate (9%)

and n is the number of periods

therefore; 70000× $\frac{(1+0.09)^{n} - 1}{0.09}$ =7796223

${(1+0.09)^{n} }$ =(7796223×0.09)/70000

n=27.85

However, since Keanu will not invest until the end of the first year, he will spend 28.85 years to achieve his goal
