Answer: A. interest rates have risen
Explanation:
Since the customer buys a Brokered CD for $100,000 and upon eceipt of his next account statement, he sees that there has been a reduction in the market value of the CD to $99,800.
This would occur because there has been an increase in the interest rates. On the other hand, assuming there was a reduction in the interest rate, this will lead to an increase in the market value.
Answer:
correct option is a. $.05
Explanation:
given data
stock price S = $43
rate of return r= 10%
exercise price K = $40
time = 6 month
worth = $5
solution
we will apply here formula for worth that is
P = C - S + K × 
here C is given worth 5 and S is stock price and K is exercise price and t is time and r is rate
so put here all value in equation 1 we get
P = C - S + K × 
P = 5 - 43 + 40 × 
P = 5 - 43 + 38.05
P = 0.05
so here correct option is a. $.05
Answer:
$740,200
Explanation:
Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of an asset to the income statement over the estimated useful life of that asset.
It is determined as the depreciable value of the asset over the estimated useful life of the asset where the depreciable value is the difference between the cost and salvage value of the asset
Mathematically,
Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value)/Estimated useful life
Depreciation = (900,000 - 101,000)/5
= $159,800
Book value is the cost net accumulated depreciation
= $900,000 - $159,800
= $740,200
Answer:
The change in operating income for GM is that the operating income will increase by the amount of other pension costs less expected returns.
However, this change will not affect the net income, as all the items will still be accounted for, accordingly.
Explanation:
GM's pension service cost is the present value of the amount that the GM is required by law to set aside annually to meet its employees' pension-benefits obligations. The reason for the separation is that the service cost is a compensation cost, whereas other pension costs are financial costs and not compensation costs. By this separation, the operating income of GM will increase.
Answer:
The company should make the bicycle seats.
Explanation:
Given:
Number of seats to be made = 10,000
Variable cost = 80,000
Fixed cost = 10,000
Outside source cost for seats = $ 8.50 per seat
Since, the fixed cost of the seats cannot be eliminated. Therefore, the deciding factor will only be the variable cost.
Thus,
contribution margin per unit seat if made by own
= ( Variable cost / Number of seats )
Or
= 80,000 / 10,000
or
= $ 8
now,
the making the seats by own is $ 0.5 cheaper.
Hence, the company should make the bicycle seats.
