Answer:
The answer is $304,000
Explanation:
Barber's ending equity is:
Barber's beginning partnership capital balance for the current year plus share of partnership net income minus Barber's withdrawal
Barber's beginning partnership capital balance for the current is $314,000
Share of partnership net income
= $152,000 /2
= $76,000
Barber's withdrawal = $86,000
Therefore, Barber's ending equity is
$314,000 + $76,000 - $86,000
= $304,000
Answer:
"Require an increase in return for any increase in risk"
Explanation:
A risk-averse investor would not consider the choice to risk $1,000 loss with the possibility of making $50 gain to be the same risk as a choice to risk only $100 to make the same $50 gain.
A risk-averse individual has a low risk tolerance or a high risk aversion. These conservative investors are willing to accept little to no volatility in their investment portfolios. Investors who are looking for "safer" investments typically invest in savings accounts, bonds, dividend growth stocks and certificates of deposit (CDs).
Answer:
Total Dividend = $20000
Explanation:
Total Income for 3 Years = 3*Average income
= 3* 6000 = $18000
Opening Retained Earnings $10,000
Closing Retained Earnings $13,000
Net Utilisation for Dividend = 13000 - 10000 = $2000
Total Dividend =Total Income+Net utilisation from RE
=18000 + 2000 = $20000
Answer:
a. U.S. Company should use a short forward contract to hedge currency risk.
b. $0.5931
c. A gain of $0.0456 is recognized by the company
Explanation:
a. As the company will receive settlement in Swiss francs in three months time, the currency risk is at the time of settlement receipt, Swiss francs will not be worth as much as it is expected against US dollar (or depreciated against USD). Thus, the company has to take the short position in forward contract to sell Swiss francs in three months time at predetermined rate.
b. We have F = S0 x ( 1+ USD rfr ) ^(90/365) / (1+ Swiss franc rfr) ^(90/365) = 0.5974 x 1.02^(90/365) / 1.05^(90/365) = $0.5931.
c. Value of the gain in the short position will be calculated at the time of 60-day-remaining to maturity as followed:
F at the beginning/ ( 1+ USD rfr) ^ (60/365) - Spot rate at the 60-day-remaining to maturity/ (1+ Swiss franc rfr) ^(90/365) = 0.5931/1.02^(60/365) - 0.55/1.05^(60/365) = $0.0456.
