zhuklara [117]

Answer:

option (d) $500

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Reynolds Construction's value of operations = $750 million

short-term investments = $50 million

accounts payable = $100 million

notes payable = $100 million

long-term debt = $200 million

common stock = $40 million

retained earnings = $160 million

Now,

Firm value of equity

= Free cash flow value + Investments - Debt - Notes payable

= $750 million + $50 million - $200 million - $100 million

= $500 million

Hence,

the correct answer is option (d) $500

Find the effective interest rate per payment period for an interest rate of 9% compounded monthly for each of the given payment

Temka [501]

Answer:

a. 0.75% per month

b. 2.25% per quarter

c. 4.5% semi- annually

d. 9% yearly

Explanation:

a. Computing the effective interest rate per payment period for the payment schedule which is monthly:

Effective rate (monthly) = Nominal rate (r) / Compounded monthly (m)

where

r is 9%

m is 12

Putting the values above:

= 9% / 12

= 0.75% per month

b. Computing the effective interest rate per payment period for the payment schedule which is quarterly:

Effective rate (quarterly) = Nominal rate (r) / Compounded quarterly (m)

where

r is 9%

m is 4

Putting the values above:

= 9% / 4

= 2.25% per quarter

c. Computing the effective interest rate per payment period for the payment schedule which is semi- annually:

Effective rate (semi- annually) = Nominal rate (r) / Compounded quarterly (m)

where

r is 9%

m is 2 (every 6 months)

Putting the values above:

= 9% / 2

= 4.5% semi- annually

d. Computing the effective interest rate per payment period for the payment schedule which is annually:

Effective rate (annually) = Nominal rate (r) / Compounded yearly (m)

where

r is 9%

m is 1 (end of the year)

Putting the values above:

= 9% / 1

= 9% yearly

What is the distinction between cross-sectional data and time-series data?

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

B. Cross-sectional data provides information about economic behavior at an instant in time, while time-series data provides information about how an economic variable behaves over time.

Explanation:

There are two types of data, transverse data and time series data. Cross-sectional data is data that exists at a single point in time. For example, data from an observational survey or sales from a firm. Time series data are data that require intertemporal analysis, such as a country's inflation and GDP data, which should be analyzed for evolution. In other words, time series data are analyzed in a manner dependent on the previous period. Current month's inflation depends on the previous month's inflation analysis.

UNO [17]

Answer:

Since 2019, the deduction limit for interest expense deductions on qualified higher education loans is $2,500. In order to qualify for this deduction, the taxpayer's adjusted AGI must be less than $85,000 for single filers (Lionel's income is below the threshold).

So Lionel will be able to deduct $1,650 as interest expense (above the line deduction).

Lionel can also deduct $2,500 form the American Opportunity Tax Credit for higher education expenses.
