OPTIONS:

B. register both the research personnel and the sales personnel in each State where the IA's services are offered
C. cross-train the research personnel and the sales personnel in each other's functions so that in the event of a confidentiality breach, one can take over the functions of the other
D. establish two separate IA firms registered with the State with one only having research personnel and the other only having sales personnel
Answer: A. establish a Chinese Wall between the research personnel and the sales personnel
Explanation: In a bid to maintain confidentiality and avoid leakage of vital information, there must be a barrier between the research personnels who makes findings on investment opportunities and packages for client needs and the sales personnels. This is because, research and investment informations are treated as classified and leakage could lead to bias, whereby some consumers will get the information and make moves before other consumers are informed via official release by the firm.
Answer: Because the issuer official no longer holds elected office, the contribution limits of Rule G-37 do not apply.
Explanation:
Rule G-37 is a way to ensure that Municipal Issuers are not unduly influenced by those who donated to their campaigns to get into a position to become Municipal Issuers.
It prohibites for 2 years, Municipal Finance Professionals (MFP) amongst others from engaging in municipal securities business with a Municipal issuer.
An exception however, is that if the MFP is entitled to a vote for the Official in question, they can donate no more than $250 per election.
Seeing as the Municipal Issuer Officer has lost her position, the MFP need not worry about this $250 limit as it no longer applies to her. The MFP is free to donate $500 to the "clean-up" campaign.

Answer:
Present value = $35.00326585 rounded off to $35.00
Explanation:
Using the dividend discount model, we calculate the price of the stock today. It values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. To calculate the present value of the stock, we will use the following formula,
Present value = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + Dn / (1+r)^n +
[(Dn * (1+g) / (r - g)) / (1+r)^n]
Where,
- r is the required rate of return
- g is the constant growth rate in dividends
- n is the number of years
Present value = 5 / (1+0.155) + 6.25 / (1+0.155)^2 + 4.75 / (1+0.155)^3 +
3 / (1+0.155)^4 + [(3 * (1+0.07) / (0.155 - 0.07)) / (1+0.155)^4]
Present value = $35.00326585 rounded off to $35.00
