Answer:

1.2%

Explanation:

Maturity risk premium is extra return that an investor receives on investment in the bonds with longer maturity. It is offered to the investors in order to compensate the risk faced by them due to longer period to maturity.

Formula for the risk premium

Maturity risk premium = Treasury note yield - Real risk-free rate - Inflation

As per given data

Treasury note yield = 6.7%

Real risk-free rate = 3.5%

Inflation = 2%

Placing values in the formula

Maturity risk premium = 6.7% - 3.5% - 2%

Maturity risk premium = 1.2%

              (To record the cash received within

              discount period)

N:B

From above ; on May 15 ;

We determine the accounts receivable amount after sales return and allowances;

i.e

Account receivable = Sales - Sales return - Compensation Period

                                 = $12,000 -$1,200 - $ 400

                                 = $10,400

The cash discount =  Account receivable × 2 %

                               = $10,400 × 0.02

                               = $208

The cash received amount = Account receivable × 98%

                               = $10,400 × 0.98

                               = $10,192

I hope that helps alot!

Lexi buys a food processor and uses it without any problems. She loans the processor to Jill, and Jill is injured when a part fl
Damm [24]

Answer:

Jill cannot hold the manufacturer responsible for her injury.

Explanation:

The above question is incomplete as there are several answer options which are listed below;

• Jill can hold the manufacturer liable for her injury as long as Lexi was in the room when she got

• Jill can hold the manufacturer liable for her injury

• Jill cannot hold the manufacturer responsible for her injury

• Lexi can hold the manufacturer liable for Jill's injury.

The above answer - Jill cannot hold the manufacturer responsible for her injury, is true according to the rule of privity of contract. The rule states that a person who is not a party to a contract does not have right to sue or be sued and to enforce the obligations arising from the contract, unlike a person who is a party to the contract.

With regards to the above scenario, Lexi, who buys a food processor is the party to the contract here, hence can sue and be sued in case of any injury suffered by her, however, Jill whom food processor was loaned to, is the third party here, hence not covered by the rule of privity of contract.

zloy xaker [14]

Answer: a. Reports indicate that students are particularly vulnerable to these tactics. If you fail to pay off the balance, you end up paying much more than the original purchase price for your items.

Explanation:

Even though financial advice is usually tailormade for the individual, a financial expert would most likely give this advice to a student because students are indeed vulnerable to such tactics.

They would be more prone to spend more in the store as a result of the credit card and this will lead to them being unable to pay off balances which will then lead to them paying much more than the original price they would have paid.
