netineya [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a scenario such as this one, the broker-dealer is not required to disclose whether any guarantee of growth was made by the representative to induce the giving of the testimonial. This is backed by the FINRA rule on testimonials used in communications which states the following:

“Retail communications or correspondence providing any testimonial concerning the investment advice or investment performance of a member or its products must prominently disclose the following:

If the expected path of 1-year interest rates over the next five years is 2 percent, 4 percent, 1 percent, 4 percent, and 3 perc

timofeeve [1]

Answer:A) one year

Explanation: The unbiased expectations theory, also known as the expectation theory aims to estimate how much the short term interest rates will amount to in future. This is based on long term interest rates. Forward rates are used to predict the value of interests in the future based on the values calculated today. A maturity of 1 year has the lowest interest rate because it is not given enough time to grow. Interest rates tend to grow better over a longer period of time. Therefore in terms of expectation theory the longer the maturity the better the chances of interest rate growth.

Avicorp has a $ 12.9 million debt issue outstanding, with a 5.9 % coupon rate. The debt has semi-annual coupons, the next coup

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Pre-tax Cost Of Debt = 7.64%

Tax Rate = 40%

Post Tax cost of debt = 7.33% * (1 - 40%) = 4.58%

So Post Tax cost of Debt = 4.58%

Explanation:

Bond Par Value = 12,900,000

Bond Market Price 93% of face value = 11,997,000

Years To maturity = 5.00

Annual Interest 5.9% = 761,100

Formula = [Annual Interest + (Par Value-Market Value) / Years to Maturity] / [(Par value+Market Price*2)/3]

Year To Maturity = [761100 + (12900000 - 11997000) / 5] / (12900000 + 2*11997000) / 3

Year to maturity = 7.33%

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Material Price Variance= $ 2850 Unfavorable

Material Quantity Variance=$ 900 unfav

Total direct materials variance $ 3750

Direct Labor Rate variance= $ 3325 fav

Direct labor time variance= 3200 Unfavorable

Total Direct Labor Cost Variance= 125 fav

Explanation:

Standard wage per hour $20

Standard labor time per faucet 30 min = 0.5 *5000= 2500 Hrs

Standard number of lbs. of brass 2.5lbs

Standard price per lb. of brass $1.80

Actual price per lb. of brass $1.95

Actual lbs of brass used during the week 13,000 lbs

Number of faucets produced during the week 5,000

Actual wage per hr. $18.75

Actual hrs for the week (70 employees x 38 hours) 2,660

Material Price Variance= (Actual Price * Actual Quantity)- (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)

Material Price Variance= ($ 1.95 *13000)-($1.8 *5000*2.5)= ($ 1.95 *13000)-($1.8 *12500)= $ 25350 - $ 22500= $ 2850

Material Price Variance= $ 2850 Unfavorable

Material Quantity Variance= (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)-(Standard Price * Standard Quantity)

Material Quantity Variance=($1.8 *13000)-($1.8 *12500)= 23400- 22500

Material Quantity Variance=$ 900 Unfav

Total direct materials variance =Material Price Variance + Material Quantity Variance= 2850 + 900 = $ 3750 Unfav

Direct Labor Rate variance= (actual hours* actual rate)- (actual hours * standard rate)

Direct Labor Rate variance=( 2660 *18.75) - (2660*20)= 49875- 53200

Direct Labor Rate variance= $ 3325 fav

Direct labor time variance= (actual hours* standard rate)- (standard hours * standard rate)

Direct labor time variance= (2660 *20) -(0.5 * 5000*20)

Direct labor time variance= 53200-50,000

Direct labor time variance= 3200 Unfavorable

Total Direct Labor Cost Variance= Direct Labor Rate variance + Direct labor time variance= 3325 fav- 3200 unfav= 125 fav
