Answer:

C) 4.50 percent

Explanation:

It is given that :

Interest a corporate bond pays = 6.25 percent

The marginal percent tax bracket is given as : 28 %

We have to find the amount that the municipality bond shall pay to be the equivalent to the amount after the tax basis :

We known that the municipal bond is tax exempted after the corporate tax bond should be equal to the municipal bond to be indifferent.

Thus, rate of return = rate of return after tax = rate x (1 - tax rate)

                                                                         = 6.25 % x (1 - 0.28)

                                                                         = 4.50 %

Therefore the answer is   = 4.50 %

Temporary investments such as in trading securities are a.recorded at fair market value and reported at fair market value b.reco
g100num [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is b.recorded at cost but reported at fair market value.

Explanation:

Investments represented in shares and in shares or shares of social interest will be recorded at their historical cost. Other investments, such as bonds, bonds, certificates, etc., will be accounted for at their nominal value. However, in case of differences between the latter and the historical cost, with the purpose of not breaking the basic accounting standard of "valuation or measurement", such differences will be controlled through complementary valuation auxiliary accounts of the investment, specifically in the titles in which the difference is presented. For this purpose, the discount items for amortization or premium for amortization will be used.
