What would be the consequences if managers of a firm evaluated a project based on its actual dollar cash flows, but used a real

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Real rate of returns are lower than nominal rates of return, therefore, using a real discount rate would overestimate a project's net present value. This could result in unprofitable projects being accepted because the NPV was erroneously calculated. If you want to use a real discount rate, you must first convert cash flows to real dollars.

For example, nominal discount rate is 10%, inflation rate is 5%, real discount rate is 5%.

Initial outlay $100

NCF year 1 = $40

NCF year 2 = $40

NCF year 3 = $40

Using the real discount rate, the NPV = $8.93

Using the nominal discount rate, the NPV = -$0.53

Exercise 5-15B Record notes receivable and interest revenue (LO5-7) On March 1, Company A provides legal services to Company B r

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

March 1: Note acceptance

Debit Note receivable $9,100

Credit Accounts receivable $9,100

(To record note receivable from Company B)

Sept 1: Cash collection

Debit Cash $9,100

Credit Note receivable $9,100

(To record cash collection of note receivable)

Debit Cash $364

Credit Interest receivable $364

(To record cash collection of interest receivable on note)

Explanation:

Note is a promissory note with a written promise made by the borrower to the lender (payee) to pay a certain, definite sum at a specified date.

Interest revenue on the note is calculated as: Principal x Interest Rate x Time

The total interest revenue is $9,100 x 8%/12 x 6 months = $364.

Monthly interest revenue is therefore $364 / 6 months = $60.67.

The 6 months is from March 1 to Sept. 1.

On a monthly basis, Company A would accrue for the interest revenue as follows:

Debit Interest receivable $60.67

Credit Interest revenue $60.67

(Interest accrual on notes receivable)

An investment has an expected return of 11 percent per year with a standard deviation of 26 percent. Assuming that the returns o

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

$P(X$

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distribution table or excel and we got:

$P(Z$

Explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the expected return, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(11,26)$

Where $\mu=11$ and $\sigma=26$

We are interested on this probability

$P(X$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(X$

And we can find this probability using the normal standard distribution table or excel and we got:

$P(Z$

What are some of the Miranda restrictions on questioning someone?

Veseljchak [2.6K]

"Miranda rights" require that police inform you that you have the right to remain silent, that anything you say can be against you in court, you have the right to have a lawyer present for questioning, and if you cannot afford a layer the court can appoint one for you.
