Answer:
The correct answer is D. For general obligation bonds, the source of income backing the issue.
Explanation:
There is no requirement to disclose the source of income that supports a general obligation issue because it must be a taxing power. The MSRB requires that the type of income that supports an income bond issue be disclosed, as well as the name of the corporate guarantor of the industrial income bonds. The dates of the calls "in their entirety" must also be disclosed in the customer confirmations, as they may affect the price of the issuance according to the rules of the MSRB (the MSRB requires that if a bond quoted based on performance is negotiated with a premium, and if it is enforceable "in its entirety" on pre-established dates and prices, then the dollar price must be calculated at the date of the call instead of the expiration date, since it is most likely to be called ).
Answer:
a. Project Low because its expected rate of return is higher than its WACC
Explanation:
Weighted Average Cost of Capital WACC determines firms cost of capital. It includes all sources of finance which are included in firm capital structure. The expected rate of return is the rate at which a project is able to generate return or benefits. For any project to be beneficial, its expected return should be higher than its WACC. We will select project Low because its expected rate of return is higher than its WACC.
Black markets are illegal markets that emerge in response to price controls. A few buyers are able to obtain the good at the open-market price; the rest must resort to illegal means. The additional demand is met by underground suppliers selling at much higher prices.
The government does not support the black market or any of their actions with getting items and selling them in other forms. Those who are in demand of a good when they have a hard time in getting it may purchase it illegally at a higher price just so they can receive that good. When there is an exchange of goods in the black market, these items are usually prohibited by the government and therefor illegally being sold.
Answer:
A. - The net public debt decreases
The net public debt decreases because the government has obtained more funds in tax revenue. For this reason, the government will likely run a budget surplus.
B. - The net public debt increases
The government was already running a budget deficit (albeit a small one). With the effects of the hurricane, the government will have to spend more to help the people affected, and will likely have to borrow even more, increasing its deficit.
C. - The net public debt remains unchanged
There was a transfer of funds from one government agency to the other, and the net effect of such transfer is likely to be very small to make any significant change in the net public debt. The net public debt remains unchanged.
Answer:
expected return is 18%
volatility of the portfolio 13.23
%
Explanation:
Your Investment: $ 10,000
Invest $ 20,000 in Google, Google's expected return is 15 %
Sell $ 10,000 worth of Yahoo! Yahoo! Yahoo!'s expected return is 12 %
=> The weight of your portfolio is 2 for the Google stock, and -1 for the Yahoo stock. The negative sign for the Yahoo stock indicates a short position in the stock. The expected return is the weighted average of the returns on the two stocks:
- 2 * 15% + (-1) * 12% = 18%
The volatility of the portfolio is:
= 13.23
%
