On October 1, 2020, Mertag Company (a U.S.-based company) receives an order from a customer in Poland to deliver goods on Januar

y 31, 2021, for a price of 1,000,000 Polish zlotys (PLN). Mertag enters into a forward contract on October 1, 2020, to sell PLN 1,000,000 in four months (on January 31, 2021). U.S. dollar–Polish zloty exchange rates are as follows:
Date Spot Rate Forward Rate
(to January 31, 2021)
October 1, 2020 $ 0.25 $ 0.29
December 31, 2020 0.28 0.31
January 31, 2021 0.30 N/A


Mertag designates the forward contract as a fair value hedge of a foreign currency firm commitment. The fair value of the firm commitment is measured by referring to changes in the forward rate, and, therefore, forward points are included in assessing hedge effectiveness. Mertag must close its books and prepare financial statements on December 31. Discounting to present value can be ignored.



Prepare journal entries for the foreign currency forward contract, foreign currency firm commitment, and export sale.
Determine the net benefit, if any, realized by Mertag from entering into the forward contract.

The number of persons coming through a blood bank until the first person with type A blood is a random variable Y with a geometr
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

a. ½(Y² - Y) is an unbiased estimator of the variance.

b. 2 Standard Error = 2√(Y²/2 - Y/2)

Explanation:

Given

E(Y) = 1/p

V(Y) = (1 - p)/p²

Simplifying V(Y)...

V(Y) = 1/p² - 1/p

Because V(Y) = 1/p² - 1/p and E(Y) = 1/p,

We'll guess that there might be an unbiased estimator of shape

aY² + bY.

Solving E(aY² + bY)...

First, E(Y²) = V(Y) + (E(Y))²

Substituting the values of V(Y) and E(Y);

E(Y²) = 1/p² - 1/p + (1/p)²

E(Y²) = 1/p² - 1/p + 1/p²

E(Y²) = 2/p² - 1/p

With the above,

E(aY² + bY) is then equal to

E(aY² + bY) = 2a/p² - a/p + b/p

The above equation is equal to V(Y), if and only if

a = ½ and b = -½

-------------- Checking------------

Let E(aY² + bY) = V(Y)

i.e.

2a/p² - a/p + b/p = 1/p² - 1/p

Multiply through by l

2a/p - a + b = 1/p - 1

Comparing right hand side to left hand side

2a/p = 1/p ----- Equation 1

And

- a + b = - 1 ------- Equation 2

Solving Equation 1 (Multiply both sides by p)

2a = 1

So, a = ½

Substitute ½ for a in Equation 2

-½ + b = -1

b = -1 + ½

b = -½

------------ End --------------

Thus ½(Y² - Y) is an unbiased estimator of the variance.

b.

2 Standard Error is given by

2√V(Y)

= 2√(1/p² - 1/p)

= 2√(Y²/2 - Y/2)

King Noodles' bonds have a 7.5% coupon rate. Interest is paid quarterly and the bonds mature in 8 years. If the discount rate is
natima [27]

Answer:

The price of King Noodles' bonds is $970.66

Explanation:

Coupon payment = 1000 x 7.5% = $75 per year = 75/4 = 18.75 per quarter

Number of periods = n = 8 years x 4 quarter each year = 32 quarter

Yield to maturity = 8% per year = 8% / 4 = 2% per quarter

Price of bond is the present value of future cash flows, to calculate Price of the bond use following formula:

Price of the Bond = $18.75 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F / ( 1 + r )^n ]

Price of the Bond =$18.75 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 2% )^-32 ) / 2% ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 2% )^32 ]

Price of the Bond = $18.75 x [ ( 1 - ( 1.02 )^-32 ) / 0.02 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1.02 )^32 ]

Price of the Bond = $440.03 + $530.63

Price of the Bond = $970.66

Ivan

Answer:

Find the answer below in explanation

Explanation:

Gillock Climbing Academy Pension Expense for the year 2019 will be recorded as

Service cost ............................................. 600,000.00

Interest (600000 × 10%)................................60,000.00

plan assets (40000 from 2018 + 32000 interest + 400000 made in current year)............... 832000

Expected return Interest on plan asset (832000*8%) ........................................ 66,560.00

Pension Expense for the year ended December 31, 2019 = 600000 -  (66,560.00 - 60000)

= 600,000−6,560

= $593,440.00

A change in the relative price of one good versus another will cause a change in marginal product and the allocation of labor re
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The correct answer is: increase relative to Industry B.

Explanation:

The marginal revenue product measures the conribution of each additional unit of input employed in the production process. It is calculated as the product of price of product and marginal product of input.

The profit maximizing level of wage is when the marginal revenue product of labor is equal to wages.

Suppose there are two goods, A and B respectively.

When the price of good A increases relative to good B, the marginal revenue product of labor employed in production of good B will increase as well.

This will cause the wage rate of those workers to increase in comparison to workers in industry B.

A school is watching students as they enter the football game for students who are
Stels [109]

The probability that the first student dressed inappropriately for the football game will be the 10th student checked is <u>3.182%</u>.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability refers to the chance that an outcome occurs given the possibility of many outcomes.

As a measure, probability represents the ratio of the outcomes from a set of equally likely outcomes.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Estimated proportion of students dressed inappropriately = 7%

Number of players for a football game = 22 (11 x 2)

Probability that the first one dressed inappropriately will be the 10th = 0.031818 (0.07 x 10/22).

Thus, the probability that the first student dressed inappropriately for the football game will be the 10th student checked is <u>3.182%</u>.
