The Homestead Strike of the Iron and Steel workers in Homestead, PA is representative of the struggle in the late 1800's between

denpristay [2]

Answer:

A) True

Explanation:

The Homestead strike was a combination of both a company lockout (the company didn't allow workers to work) and a union strike (where the workers did't want to work). It was a power struggle between one of the darkest and sinister monopolists of the 19th century, Carnegie Steel (led by Andrew Carnegie) and the most powerful workers' union in America, the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers.

In 1889 the union won, but Carnegie wanted revenge, so in 1892, he demanded harsher conditions after the initial contract was over and when the union said no, a lockout started. It was bloody and messy, with 16 dead. Carnegie's private army of 300 guards faced 10,000 strikers and things turned ugly soon. The Pinkertons (Carnegie's troops) were "defeated" but too many lives were lost.

Since Carnegie's little was defeated, he asked a bigger fish to help him and the governor sent 8,000 soldiers to arrest any union striker that opposed Carnegie. Finally, Carnegie's millions and corrupt politicians won, and the workers were forced to accept lower wages and more working hours. Those who rejected the forced deal were sent to prison.

Which of the following statements is true?

stich3 [128]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

A monopolistic competitive firm has a downward sloping demand curve. Such a firm is a price maker. It decides price and output through the interaction of the marginal revenue and marginal cost.

The marginal revenue is the change in revenue because of selling an additional output. At high prices, the marginal revenue will be positive while at low prices it will be negative.

If $15,000 is considered to be material to the income statement, but $25,000 is material to the balance sheet, the auditor shoul

Elanso [62]

Answer:

The correct option is d.

Explanation:

It is given that $15,000 is considered to be material to the income statement, but $25,000 is material to the balance sheet.

Material to the income statement = $15,000

Material to the balance sheet = $25000

The auditor should set overall materiality according to the income statement.

The auditor should set overall materiality at $15,000.

Therefore the correct option is d.

A 30-year maturity bond has a 6.7% coupon rate, paid annually. It sells today for $881.17. A 20-year maturity bond has a 6.2% co

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Rate of return

30 year bond = 42%

20 year bond = 45%

Explanation:

First of all find current yield on 30 year maturity bond

We will use PV of annuity formula to calculate current YTM

Coupon Payment = 6.7% x 1000 = $67

$881.17 =( $67( 1- ( 1 + r )^-30 ) / r ) + ( 1000 / ( 1 + r )^30 )

r = 0.0773 = 7.73%

Current YTM is 7.73%

Now calculate the current yield for 20 years maturity bond

Coupon Payment = 6.2% x 1000 = $62

893.1 = ( ( $62 x ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-20 ) / r ) + ( 1000 / ( 1 + r )^20 )

r = 0.0723 = 7.23%

As given

5 years from now the YTM on 30 Year bond will be 7.70% and on 20 Year bond will be 7.20%.

Now calculate

Price of the 30 year bond Bond after 5 year at YTM of 7.7%

Price of the Bond = ( $67 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 0.077 )^-(30-5) ) / 0.077 )+( 1000 / ( 1 + 0.077 )^(30-5) ) = $890.46

Price of the 20 year bond Bond after 5 year at YTM of 7.2%

Price of the Bond = ((6.7%*1000)*(1-(1+0.072)^-15)/0.072)+(1000/(1+0.072)^15)

( $62 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 0.072 )^-(20-5) ) / 0.072 )+( 1000 / ( 1 + 0.072 )^(20-5) ) = $910.06

Increase in price of 30 year bond = $890.46 - $881.17 = $9.29

Increase in price of 30 year bond = $910.06 - $893.1 = $16.96

Future value of Coupon payment for 5 years

30 year bond = 67 x ( 1.072^5 -1 ) / 0.072 = $386.84

20 year bond = 62 x ( 1.072^5 -1 ) / 0.072 = $357.97

Total return = FV of Coupon payment + Price increase

30 year bond = $386.84 + $9.29 = $396.13

20 year bond = $357.97 + $16.96 = $374.93

Rate of return =

30 year bond = $396.13 / $881.17 = 0.45 = 45%

20 year bond = $374.93 / $893.1 = 0.42 = 42%
