Answer:

A. about 2.0%

Explanation:

The forecasted error for week 1 is 1%. The demand for week 1 is 50 while estimated demand or forecast was 49. The difference between the two values is 1. The forecasted demand for week 2 is 50 while actual demand for week 2 is 54. The difference between the forecast and actual value is 4. The difference in week 3 is 5. Mean absolute deviation is 6% which means there can be 6% standard deviation from the forecasted values.

A bond has a par value of $1,000, a time to maturity of 15 years, and a coupon rate of 7.90% with interest paid annually. If the
Effectus [21]

Answer:

$5.97

Explanation:

In order to determine the capital gain of the bond in a year's time,it is first first of all important to calculate the yield to maturity on the bond which is arrived at by applying the rate formula in excel as follows:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of coupon interest the bond would pay over its entire life of 15 years which is 15

pmt is the annual interest,7.9%*$1000=$79

pv is the current market price of the bond which is $790

fv is the value of $1000

=rate(15,79,-790,1000)=10.79%

Afterwards,the price of the bond in one year' time can then be calculated:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

The variables in the formula are as above except for nper which would reduce by 1 in a year's time

=-pv(10.79%,14,79,1000)

pv=$ 795.97  

Hence the capital gain=price now-price one year ago/price one year ago

price now is $795.97  

price one year ago was $790

Capital gain=$795.97-$790=$5.97

Capital gain %= ($795.97-$790)/$790=0.76%

Mickey and Jenny Porter file a joint tax return, and they itemize deductions. The Porters incur $2,000 in investment expenses. T
Reil [10]

Answer:

Please check the following explanation

Explanation:

Capital losses are not included in the calculation of net investment income. Therefore, $2,000 long-term capital loss would have no effect on investment income. Thus, Porters' investment income will remain $2,500.

Consequently, Porters' can deduct $2,500 of the investment interest expense and the remaining $500 of investment interest expense will be carried over to next year.

On May 1, 2021, Meta Computer, Inc., enters into a contract to sell 4,100 units of Comfort Office Keyboard to one of its clients
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Journal Entry

Explanation:

1. There are two obligations in this contract

a. keyboard

b. Customer option for future discount

2. Cash Dr,                                                     $69,700

        To Deferred revenue - keyboard                $66,215

        To Deferred revenue - discount coupon    $3,485

(Being cash is recorded)

Working note:-

Keyboards = 4,100 × $19

= $77,900

Option = $41,000 × (0.25 - 0.05) × 0.50

= $4,100

Allocation

For keyboard

= $77,900 ÷ ($77,900 + 4,100)

= 0.95

Deferred revenue Keyboard = $69,700 × 0.95

= $66,215

Option = 4,100 ÷ ($77,900 + 4,100)

= 0.05

Deferred revenue - discount coupon = $69,700 × 0.05

= $3,485

3. Cash Dr,                                                  $69,700

       To Deferred revenue Keyboard               $69,700

As part of his 401(k) retirement plan at work, Ken Lowery invests 6.0 percent of his salary each month in the Capital Investment
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The amount of the fee is $1689.60

Explanation:

The computation of the amount of the fee is shown below:

= Dollar value × fund charges a 12b-1 fee

= $211,200 × 0.8%

= $211,200 × 0.008

= $1689.60

Since the question has asked the fee amount so we consider the fee charges percentage, not the capital investment Lifecycle fund. Thus, we ignore the Capital Investments Lifecycle Fund as it is not relevant.

Hence, the amount of the fee is $1689.60
