Answer:

B. Reduce the Money Market Fund allocation by 30% (to 10%) and put the released funds in AAA-rated corporate bonds

Explanation:

First of all, since the investor is risk averse and cannot afford to lose money on any risky investment, she should change the mix of her investment portfolio but without increasing risks. Corporate bonds that are AAA-rated carry a very low risk and pay a little higher than money market funds. So a small decrease in money market fund assets and an increase in AAA-rated bonds should yield a slightly higher return.

Investing in equities would be too risky and US Treasuries pay even less interests than money market funds.

Rosewood Company made a loan of $16,000 to one of the company's employees on April 1, Year 1. The one-year note carried a 6% rat

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is $720 in Year 1 and $240 in Year 2 Next.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Loan Amount =$16,000

Rate of interest = 6%

Time period for first year (Apr - Dec) = 9 months

Time period for second year ( Jan - Mar) = 3 months

So, we can calculate the amount of interest by using following formula:

For first year:

Amount of interest (1st year) = $16,000 × 6% × 9 ÷ 12 = $720

Amount of interest (2nd year) = $16,000 × 6% × 3 ÷ 12 = $240

A number between 1 and 15

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

The probability is 0.20 or 20%

Explanation:

we know that

The probability of an event is the ratio of the size of the event space to the size of the sample space.

The size of the sample space is the total number of possible outcomes

The event space is the number of outcomes in the event you are interested in.

so

Let

x------> size of the event space

y-----> size of the sample space

so

$P=\frac{x}{y}$

In this problem we have that

Multiple of 5 between 1 and 15 = 5, 10,15

so

$x=3$

Total numbers between 1 and 15=15

so

$y=15$

substitute

$P=\frac{3}{15}=0.20$

Convert to percentage

$P=0.20(100)=20\%$

Green Thumb Nursery has 53,000 shares outstanding at a market price of $63.57 per share. The earnings per share are $3.57. The f

mamaluj [8]

Answer: $3.70

Explanation:

Earnings per share = Net income / Number of shares

Net income = Earnings per share * Number of shares

= 3.57 * 53,000

= $189,210

The number of shares that Green Thumb bought back is:

= Stock repurchase amount / Market price of shares

= 117,000 / 63.57

= 1,840 shares

After the repurchase the number of shares is:

= 53,000 original shares - 1,840

= 51,160 shares

New EPS = 189,210 / 51,160

= $3.70
