Answer:

A portfolio consists of 40% in Security A and 60% in Security B. The covariance matrix for A is 144, 225; for B is 225, 81. The standard deviation for the portfolio is 12.7

Option D is correct

Explanation:

Wa: 0.4

Wb: 0.6

a^2: 144

b^2: 81

Cov(a,b): 225

Portfolio Variance:

: (0.4*0.4*144) + (0.6*0.6*81) + (2*0.4*0.6*225)

: 160.2

Portfolio Standard Deviation: 12.7

Answer:

I would choose to invest in C-T bank since it offers $7.3675 more compared to Bank Wan

Explanation:

The two options can be expressed as shown;

Option 1: Bank Wan

A=P(1+r/n)^nt

where;

A=Total amount after a given time

P=Initial deposit

r-Annual interest rate

n=number of times the interest is compounded annually

t=number of years of the investment

In our case;

P=$1,500

r=2.5%=2.5/100=0.025

n=365 days

t=1 year

Replacing;

A=1,500(1+0.025/365)^(365×1)

A=1,500(1.02530

A=1,537.97

Total amount after a year=$1,537.97 for Bank Wan

Option 2: C-T Bank

P=$1,500

r=3%=3/100=0.03

n=2

t=1

Replacing;

A=1,500(1+0.03/2)^(2×1)

A=1,500(1.015)^2

A=1,545.3375

Total amount after a year=$1,545.3375 for C-T Bank

Total amount received to be received from C-T Bank-Total amount to be received from Bank Wan

=(1,545.3375-1,537.97)=$7.3675

I would choose to invest in C-T bank since it offers $7.3675 more compared to Bank Wan

(Lessee-Lessor Entries, Sales-Type Lease; Guaranteed Residual Value) Phelps Company leases a building to Walsh, Inc. on January

Artist 52 [7]

Solution and Explanation:

Calculation of Minimum lease annual payments from (MLP)

Year MLP from lessor Present value Present valur of

point of view factor 8% cash flows

1 $4,703 $1 /(1.08)=0925$ $4,350.28

2 $4,703 $1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 2=0.857$ $4,030.47

3 $4,703 $1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 3=0.793$ $3,729.48

4 $4,703 $1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 4=0.735$ $3,456.71

5 $4,703 $1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 5=0.680$ $3,198.04

Total of Minimum

lease Payments $23,515 $ 18,764.97

Add

Unguaranteed

residual value(ugrv) 4000 $1 /(1.08)^{\wedge 5}=0.680$ $2,720.00

Asset to be recorded

in the books of lessor

(sum of mlp +ugrv) $27,515 $ 21,484.97

Here

Gross Investment=$27515

Lease receivable recorded in in the books of lessor(Phelps)(Mimum lease payments + Unguaranteed residual )value = $21484 $21,484

Walsh (lessee) shoiuld be recorded the amount of present value of minimum lease payments + Guaranteed Residual value=$18764.97 as asset and liabilty

b) In the books of phelps (lessor)

2017.01.01 Lease Recievble from walsh ….Dr $21,484

to Asset $21,484

(Being Lease receivable recorded )

In the books of Walsh (lessee)

2017.01.01 Asset ac ……………Dr $18,764

to Lease Liabilty(Lessor) $18,764

(Being the asset and liabilty recorded )

2017.12.31 Depreciation ……Dr 3752

to Asset 3752

(Beint Depreciation recorded charged during the year recorded 18764/5 provided for 5 years)

Here annual payment started from the at the beginning of year i.e annual lease payments start from 01.01.2018.

c) If expected residual value of $4000 is guaranteed by walsh no changes will be made in classification of lease and there is no chages in asset recorded in Lessor books. But changes will be made in the books of lessee as present value of guaranteed residual value should be added to asset I.e $18764+Present vlue of $4000 $18764+2720=21484

d) If expected residual value of $3000 is guaranteed by walsh no changes will be made in classification of lease and there is no chages in asset recorded in Lessor books But changes will be made in the books of lessee as present value of guaranteed residual value should be added to asset I.e $18764+Present vlue of $3000 $18764+$2040=$20804

nalin [4]

NO. The company should not alter its marketing campaigns to reflect biases that might be prevalent in various countries in which the company does business. Especially if the alteration made is against company polity and ethics.

The marketing campaigns must represent the authentic stance of the company. It should be presented in such a way that it gives out positive responses from clients and potential clients regardless of market sector.
