<span>Rick's decision to suspend his job search causes the unemployment rate to decrease and the labor force participation rate to decrease.
In this situation the unemployment rate is decreasing because he stopped looking for a job. Only those actively seeking a job can be considered part of the unemployment rate because they have to want a job but can't find one. The labor force participation rate is also dropping because Rick is no longer employed. </span>
Answer:
-$2.4
Explanation:
Costs of lottery ticket $10 per ticket.
100 tickets available to be sold
One $430 prize
two $105 prizes
four $30 prizes
100 available tickets -7 prizes= 93
P(430) = 1/100
P(105) = 2/100
P(30) = 4/100
P(-10) = 93/100
-10(93/100) + 30-10 (4/100) + 105-10 (2/100) + 430-10 (1/100)
= -10(93/100) + 20(4/100) + 95(2/100) + 420(1/100)
= -9.3 + 0.8 + 1.9 + 4.2 = -2.4
Therefore the expected loss will be $2.4
<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>
A court assumes that the written cntarct is the begining and the end of all the terms of the agreement and will not acept the parol evidence if it changes the meaning of the terms of contract.
Parol evidence should only be used to determine the inetntions of the parties at the time the contract was made, not after the fact.
Valid contract: The elemenst of valid contract must be seen.
Since Mrs B signed a contract with the specific terms that did not include a bonus, a court would not consider an oral agreement based on completing a yet to be written contract under the parol evidence rule.
hence, Mrs B cannot introduce the oral agreement under the parol evidence rule.
Answer:
d. 5.14%.
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the best estimate of the after-tax cost of debt.
First step
Based on the information given we would make use of rate formula in excel.
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
Where,
nper= coupon every six months for 20 years = 40 coupon payments
Pmt =$1000*7.25%*6/12=$36.25
Pv = $875
Fv =$1000
Let plug in the formula
=rate(40,36.25,-875,1000)=4.28% semiannually
=4.28% *2=8.56% annually
Now let calculate the after tax cost of debt using this formula
After tax cost of debt=8.56%*(1-t)
Where,
t represent tax rate of 40%
Let plug in the formula
After tax cost of debt=8.56%*(1-0.4)
After tax cost of debt=5.14%
Therefore the best estimate of the after-tax cost of debt is 5.14%
