A customer opens a margin account by purchasing 100 shares of ABC at $60 per share, depositing the 50% Regulation T requirement.

Scilla [17]

Answer:

Account Balance in margin account:

Investment = $6,000 (100 x $60)

The customer's account will first increase with an unrealized gain of $2,000 ($80 - 60 x 100) on the next day. It will then decrease with an unrealized loss of $2,000 ($80 - 60 x 100) on the day after. This cancels the earlier unrealized gain.

Explanation:

The customer's investment will now show a balance of $6,000 with a contra account showing a debt of $3,000 for the balance of the Regulation T margin account. According to investopedia, "A margin account is a brokerage account in which the broker lends the customer cash to purchase stocks or other financial products.

Manuel Rios wishes to determine how long it will take an initial deposit of $13 comma 000 to double. a. If Manuel earns 9% ann

Lorico [155]

Answer:

See Below

Explanation:

This is a problem of compound interest. The formula is:

$F=P(1+r)^t$

Where

F is the future value

P is the present value

r is the rate of interest

t is the time in years

P = 13,000

To double his money, that means, F = 26,000

Now, r = 9% = 0.09, so time it takes:

$F=P(1+r)^t\\26,000=13,000(1+0.09)^t\\2=1.09^{t}\\t=\frac{Ln(2)}{Ln(1.09)}\\t=8.04$

So, its gonna take about 8.04 years to double

Similarly, here we just use r = 0.06, so the calculation is:

$F=P(1+r)^t\\2=1.06^t\\t=11.9$

So, its gonna take about 11.9 years to double

Here, the r is 11% or 0.11

So, the time it will take:

$F=P(1+r)^t\\2 = 1.11^t\\t=6.6$

So, it is going to take about 6.6 years to double

The amount of time it takes to double his money decreases as the interest rate increases and the time increases as interest rate decreases.

inysia [295]

Answer:

$48,000

Explanation:

The computation of the amount that should be reported as the intangible asset franchise is shown below

= Purchase value of franchise - amortization per year

= $60,000 - ($60,000 ÷ 5 years)

= $60,000 - $12,000

= $48,000

hence, the amount that should be reported as the intangible asset franchise is $48,000
