Net interest margin—often referred to as spread—is the difference between the rate banks pay on deposits and the rate they charg

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

(a) $P(X\:>\:5.40)=0.9938$

(b) $P(X\:$

(c) X=4.975 percent

Explanation:

(a) Find the z-value that corresponds to 5.40 percent

. $Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$

$Z=\frac{5.40-4.15}{0.5}$

$Z=\frac{1.25}{0.5}=2.5$

Hence the net interest margin of 5.40 percent is 2.5 standard deviation above the mean.

The area to the left of 2.5 from the standard normal distribution table is 0.9938.The probability that a randomly selected U.S. bank will have a net interest margin that exceeds 5.40 percent is 1-0.9938=0.0062

(b) The z-value that corresponds to 4.40 percent is $Z=\frac{4.40-4.15}{0.5}=0.5$ The net interest margin of 4.40 percent is 0.5 standard deviation above the mean.

Using the normal distribution table, the area under the curve to the left of 0.5 is 0.6915

Therefore the probability that a randomly selected U.S. bank will have a net interest margin less than 4.40 percent is 0.6915

(c) The z-value that corresponds to 95% which is 1.65

We substitute the 1.65 into the formula and solve for X. $1.65=\frac{X-4.15}{0.5}$

$1.65\times 0.5=X-4.15$ $0.825=X-4.15$

$0.825+4.15=X$

$4.975=X$

A bank that wants its net interest margin to be less than the net interest margins of 95 percent of all U.S. banks should set its net interest margin to 4.975 percent.

Singh Co. reports a contribution margin of $960,000 and fixed costs of $720,000. (1) Compute the company’s degree of operating l

Alex

Answer: 1. Degree of Operating Leverage = 4

2. $384,000

Explanation:

1. Degree of Operating Leverage is calculated by dividing the Contribution margin by the Net Operating income.

Now, the Contribution margin is the difference between Price and Variable Cost. This means that if you remove fixed costs from it as well you get your profit.

Therefore 1. can be calculated thus,

Degree of Operating Leverage = Contribution Margin / Net Operating income

Degree of Operating Leverage = 960,000 / 960,000 - 720,000

Degree of Operating Leverage = 4

2. When Sales increases by a certain percentage we multiply that percentage by the Degree of Operating Leverage to find out how much Income will increase by.

Because sales went up by 15%, Singh Co. can expect that income would rise by,

= 15% * 4

= 60%.

Now income is Contribution margin - fixed costs so we have,

Income = 960,000 - 720,000

Income = $240,000

An increase of 60% would be

= 240,000( 1+ 60%)

=$384,000

$384,000 is the amount of income that Singh Co. can expect.

An inventory pricing procedure in which the oldest costs incurred rarely have an effect on the ending inventory valuation is:

laila [671]

Answer:

First in, first out (FIFO)

Explanation:

In FIFO, the assets produced or acquired first are sold, used or disposed of first and may be used by an individual or a corporation. So , since the newer costs are more relevant , the oldest cost won't affect the ending valuation.
