Which theory would most likely explain why a commercial bank, which usually focuses on short-term securities, would switch to lo

den301095 [7]

Answer:

preferred habitat

Explanation:

According to the preferred habitat theory, if the expected returns from investment of a particular investment maturity is large enough, investors would shift from their preferred maturities.

In this question, there is a shift from the preferred maturity (short-term securities) to a long-term securities when interest rate changes

The pure expectations theory assumes that bonds of any maturity are perfect substitutes for each other. For example, if an investor buys a 10 year bond and holds it for 1 year, the return is the same as buying a 1 year bond. The theory also assumes that risk premium does not exist and a security only earns its risk free rate

Liquidity premium theory states that risk premium increases with the maturity of a bond. The theory predicts that the yield curve is upward sloping due to liquidity premium

According to the segmented market theory, each bond maturity segment can be thought of as a segment market in which yield are a function of the demand and supply for funds in that maturity.

Screening Model. Assume that the following criteria relevant to the process of screening various project opportunities are weigh

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Project Alpha 81

Project Beta 81

Project Gamma 83

Project Delta 81

Among the four projects the most likely candidates to be implemented will

be Project Gamma .

Explanation:

Screening Model

1.Calculation for Project Alpha

Important Weight×Weight Score = Weighted Score

Quality 5 × 1 =5

Cost 3 ×7 =21

Speed 7 ×5 =35

Visibility 5 ×3= 15

Reliability 1× 5 =5

Total Score =81

2.Important Weight ×Weight Score = Weighted Score

Calculation for Project Beta

Quality 5 × 3 =15

Cost 3 ×7 =21

Speed 7× 5 =35

Visibility 5×1 =5

Reliability 1 ×5 =5

Total Score =81

3.Important Weight ×Weight Score = Weighted Score

Calculation for Project Gamma

Quality 5 ×3 =15

Cost 3 ×5 =15

Speed 7× 3= 21

Visibility 5×5 =25

Reliability 1×7 =7

Total Score=83

4.Important Weight ×Weight Score = Weighted Score

Calculation for project Delta

Quality 5 ×5 =25

Cost 3 ×3 =9

Speed 7× 5 =35

Visibility 5×1 =5

Reliability 1 ×7 =7

Total Score =81

Therefore among the four projects the most likely candidates to be implemented will

be Project Gamma because it has the highest

score with a score of 83.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: 0.11 or 11%

Explanation: The dollar-weighted return (DWR) measures the rate of return of an investment or a portfolio, taking under consideration the timing of flows. for every deposit, add the resulting amount to the start balance, and for every withdrawal, subtract that quantity. Check the attachment for the solution.

Once you've got both numbers, divide the first by the second. which will offer you the dollar-weighted investment return, which you'll then multiply by 100 to give you a return in percentage terms.

Masja [62]

Answer:

Trusper Company

The total amount of dividends that will be paid to common stockholders during Year 2 is:

$40,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

10% cumulative preferred stock = $200,000 ($200 * 1,000)

Common stock = $3,000 (3,000 * $1)

Dividends in Year 1 for cumulative preferred stockholders = $20,000 ($200,000 * 10%)

Dividends outstanding after Year 1 for cumulative preferred stockholders = $15,000 ($20,000 - $5,000)

Dividends for Year 2 for cumulative preferred stockholders = $35,000 ($20,000 + $15,000).

Total dividend paid to common stockholders during Year 2 = $40,000 ($75,000 - $35,000)

b) The unpaid cumulative preferred stock dividend of $15,000 for Year 1 will be added to the dividend of the Year 2. The common stockholders are not paid any dividends in Year 1. But in Year 2, they will get $40,000 after the cumulative preferred stock dividends are paid.
