Answer:

True

Explanation:

When we apply the expectations theory, we assume that there is no risk premium associated to the securities (this theory applies to government securities). If the yield curve is upward sloping (positive slope), it means that the short term yields are expected to increase. The time value of money applies to all securities, including government securities, i.e. $1 today is worth more than $1 tomorrow.

Eddi Din [679]
So lets say we have two investment opportunities. A new convenient store in your neighborhood or a new shopping center more than 5 miles away from where you live... What would you invest in well lets look at the pros and cons of each investment. So even though the new convenient store is right around the corner from you and prices are low the new shopping center has better products, warranty and higher prices unlike the convenient store closer to you. So we have an investment budget of $1000 dollars and want to spend it wisely we need to access what has a better chance of being successful with what you put into it. So the convenient store will reach less people has a bargain price but also doesn't have security cameras. Even though the shopping center has great employees, top-of-the-line products, high security, and a great establishment but also has flaws. What are you gonna invest in,  will you take risks? My personal opinion is that I would invest in the shopping center because more people would be attracted to it because of the quality of service and products. So it would have a better probability in success and good use of my money.

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

C) Total assets are overstated.

Explanation:

The journal Entry for the Depreciation is as follows:

Dr. Depreciation Expense          xxx

Cr. Accumulated Depreciation   xxx

By missing this Journal entry the Accumulated depreciation account will be understated as we know that this is a contra asset account and this will net off the Long term assets. So, as a result the total asset will be overstated.

An investment offers a total return of 15 percent over the coming year. Janet Jello thinks the total real return on this investm
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

6.78%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Total return i.e nominal rate = 15% = 0.15

Real return = 7.7% = 0.077

Now,

Inflation rate = \frac{\textup{1 + Nominal rate}}{\textup{1 + Real return }}  - 1

on substituting the respective values, we get

Inflation rate = \frac{\textup{1 + 0.15}}{\textup{1 + 0.077}}  - 1

or

Inflation rate = [ 1.15 ÷ 1.077 ] - 1

or

Inflation rate = 0.0678

or

Inflation rate = 0.0678 × 100% = 6.78%
