If the expected return generated by a financial asset is greater than what is required for compensating the asset's risk, the de

mand for the financial asset will start rising exponentially such that the initial cost incurred to take a position in the financial asset (the price of the financial asset) will increase. This in turn will depress the expected returns generated by the financial asset. This process will continue till the excess return being generated by the asset ceases to exist and the asset's price becomes commensurate with the asset's risk-return profile. This entire process is known as arbitrage.

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Arbitrage refers to buying and selling stocks, commodities, bonds, currencies, or any other type of security. This process is carried out simultaneously, and a profit is made when the purchase price is lower than the selling price. E.g. a trader that purchases gold from a European seller and immediately sells it to an Asian buyer at a slightly higher price.

As technology advances, arbitrage has become more difficult to carry out because information is available to everyone. Before, a company could purchase a good (e.g. beef) in Texas and sell it at a higher price to a buyer in New York.

  • Discount on Bonds Payable: ($7,000) ⇒ contra liability account
  • Sales Tax Payable: 3,512
  • FICA Tax Payable: 3,200
  • Bonds Payable: 100,000
  • Note Payable, due in two years 1,709
  • Unearned Service Revenue 30,500 ⇒ must be reported as a liability
  • Salaries and Wages Payable 17,880

Benson and Orton are partners who share income in the ratio of 2:3 and have capital balances of $60,000 and $40,000, respectivel
hjlf

Answer:

$48,800

Explanation:

Ratio = 2:3

Total investment:

= Benson capital + Orton capital + Ramsey capital

= $60,000 + $40,000 + $20,000

= $120,000

Total Equity of Ramsey:

= 40% of  Total investment

= 0.4 × $120,000

= $48,000

Old partners contribution:

= Equity of Ramsey - Ramsey capital

= $48,000 - $20,000

= $28,000

Benson’s capital balance after admitting Ramsey:

= Benson’s capital - Old partners contribution(2 ÷ 5)

= $60,000 - [$28,000 × (2 ÷ 5)]

= $60,000 - $11,200

= $48,800

Company X wants to borrow $10,000,000 floating for 5 years. Company Y wants to borrow $10,000,000 fixed for 5 years. Their exter
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The answer is:

10% fixed rate = Company X's external borrowing (rate);

11.8% fixed rate = Company Y's payment to X (rate);

LIBOR + 1.5% = Company X's payment to Y (rate);

LIBOR + 1.5% = Company Y's external borrowing rate.

Explanation:

First, X will borrow at 10% fixed and Y will borrow at LIBOR + 1.5% floating; both at notational principal of $10 million.

Then; they will enter into a interest swap where:

- X will pay to the swap the interest rate of Libor +1.5% and receive from the swap the fixed interest rate of 11.8%. Thus, X interest income and interest expenses will be: Borrowed at fixed 10% and payment at Libor+1.5% to the swap; Receipt of 11.8% from the Swap=> Net effect: X borrowed at LIBOR - 0.3% ( saving of 0.3%).

- Y will pay to the swap the fixed interest rate 11.8% and receive from the swap LIBOR +1.5%. Thus, Y interest income and interest expenses will be: Borrowed at LIBOR +1.5 and payment 11.8% fixed to the swap; Receipt of Libor + 1.5% from Bthe Swap=> Net effect: Y borrowed at 11.8% fixed ( saving of 0.2%).
