Answer:
The net swap payment at the end of the first year is:
= $7,000.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Zero coupon bond that matures for 1 on the maturity date
Maturity Date Price
1 year 0.965
2 years 0.920
3 years 0.875
4 years 0.825
5 years 0.770
Net swap payment at the end of the first year = fixed swap rate - variable swap rate * notional principal amount
= (1 - 0.965) * $200,000
= $7,000
b) Swaps are used by entities to hedge against their exposure to interest rate fluctuations. A swap reduces the uncertain future cash flows by allowing entities to take advantage of future market realities by revising their own debt obligations with a counterparty. In our example, Phillip agrees to pay Josh a variable swap rate while Josh pays Phillip a fixed swap rate. At the end of each period, the swap rates are netted off before applying the notional principal amount to arrive at the net swap payment.
The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board:____.
A. establishes accounting principles only for issuers.
B. interacts with the IASB in an effort to bring about convergence.
C. must report to the Securities and Exchange Commission as a matter of federal law.
D. All the above are true.
E. None of the above is true.
Answer: C. must report to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a matter of federal law.
Explanation:
The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) is a non-profit organization that was established after the disastrous accounting scandals of the early 2000s and late 1990s involving companies like WorldCom and Enron.
The purpose of the organization is to ensure that the audits of a public company are done in such a way that audit risk is reduced and the audit report is as accurate as possible. Even though they are a non-profit, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act mandates that they report to the SEC which has oversight over them.

Imagine that two goods are available to you: servants (X) and robots (Y). You like servants three times as much as robots. If your domestic help budget is $4,000 per month, the price (wage) of servants is $1500 per person per month, and the price (rent) of robots is $400 per unit per month, what is the value of the MktRS (market rate of substitution)
Answer: 3
Explanation:
The marginal rate of substitution simply means the rate at which one good will be exchanged for another good based on the current market price.
Since you like servants three times as much as robots, this implies that the utility that one gets from one servant is exactly like the utility that will be gotten from three robots.
Therefore, the utility function will be:
U = 3X + Y
Then, the marginal rate of substitution will be:
= MUX/MUY
= 3

Pierre, a cash basis, unmarried taxpayer, had $1,700 of state income tax withheld during 2020. Also in 2020, Pierre paid $425 that was due when he filed his 2019 state income tax return and made estimated payments of $1,190 towards his 2020 state income tax liability. When Pierre files his 2020 Federal income tax return in April 2021, he elects to itemize deductions, which amount to $17,450, including the state income tax payments and withholdings, all of which reduce his taxable income. a. What is Pierre's 2020 state income tax deduction
Answer:
$3,315
Explanation:
Calculation to determine Pierre's 2020 state income tax deduction
Using this formula.
2020 state income tax deduction=State income tax withheld+State income tax return amount due+State income tax liability
Let plug in the formula
2020 state income tax deduction=$1700+$425+$1190
2020 state income tax deduction=$3,315
Therefore Pierre's 2020 state income tax deduction is $3,315

John invests a total of 10,000. He purchases an annuity with payments of 1,000 at the beginning of each year for 10 years at an effective annual interest rate of 8%. As annuity payments are received, they are reinvested at an effective annual interest rate of 7%. The remaining balance of the 10,000 is invested in a 10-year certificates of deposit with a nominal annual interest rate of 9%, compounded quarterly. Calculate the annual effective yield rate on the entire 10,000 investment over the 10-year period.
Answer:
7.95%
Explanation:
the first step is to determine the present value of the 10 year annuity
[tex]1000\frac{(1 + 0.08)(1 - (1 - 0.08)^{-10} }{0.08}[/tex] = 7246.89
remaining balance of the 10,000 is invested in a 10-year certificates of deposit = 10,000 - 7246.89 = $2753.11
We would calculate the future value of this amount
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r/m)^mn
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
m = number of compounding
$2753.11 x ( 1 + 0.09/4)^(4 x 10) = 6704.34
calculate the value of reinvestments
[tex]1000\frac{(1 + 0.07) ( 1 + 0.07)^{10} - 1 }{0.07}[/tex] = 14783.60
14783.60 + 6704.34 = 10,000 ( 1 + er)^10
er = 0.0795 = 7.95%

Serena purchased 10 shares of GLC, Inc. stock for $200 per share; one year later she sold the 10 shares for $220 a share. Over the year, the price level increased from 135.0 to 143.1. The tax rate on capital gains is 50 percent. If the capital gains tax is on nominal gains, how much tax does Serena pay on her gain?
Answer:
$100
Explanation:
Gain on the stock sale = Value of sold shares - Value of purchased shares
Gain on the stock sale = 10*$220 - 10*$200
Gain on the stock sale = $2,200 - $2,000
Gain on the stock sale = $200
Tax pay on the gain = Gain on the stock sale * Tax rate on capital gains
Tax pay on the gain = $200 * 50%
Tax pay on the gain = $100

g A producer of beverages and snack foods wants to market its products to the 18-to34-year-old demographic by providing incentives to respond instantly to time-sensitive offers redeemable at nearby stores. Which form of marketing would this producer most likely choose? Group of answer choices Podcasting Promotions Advertisement Personal sales Product placement
Answer:
The correct answer is the second option: Promotions.
Explanation:
To begin with, in the field of marketing there are many options to choose from and sometimes most of them are useful at the time of completing and implementing a strategy that targets the audience that the company is seeking for. In this case presented, where it is well established the kind of consumers the producer wants to reach, the most indicated option to use in the marketing campaign will be the promotions of the product itself and that is basically for two things. The first one because of the ages of the audience, it is most probably that they feel more related to the promotion due to the fact that sometimes most of the youth of that age is under their parents maintenance. And the second thing is because the text specifically says "time-sensitive" which is a characteristic of the promotions strategies.
Leia is considering insuring against theft the new $300 CD-player she just installed in her automobile. Her insurance agent tells her that such an option could be added to her present policy for $30 per year. The agent further states that the probability of theft is 0.2 in a given year. If she takes the insurance, what is her expected return per year
Answer: $30
Explanation:
If the CD-player is stolen, Leia would get a replacement from the insurance so her return for the year would be:
= Amount received from insurance - Amount paid in premiums
= 300- 30
= $270
If the CD player is not stolen, she will pay the premium of $30 so her return for the year would be: -$30
Expected return per year = (Probability of CD stolen * Return if stolen) + ( Probability of CD not being stolen * Return if not stolen)
= (0.2 * 270) + (0.8 * -30)
= $30

NU YU announced today that it will begin paying annual dividends. The first dividend will be paid next year in the amount of $.31 a share. The following dividends will be $.36, $.51, and $.81 a share annually for the following three years, respectively. After that, dividends are projected to increase by 2.5 percent per year. How much are you willing to pay today to buy one share of this stock if your desired rate of return is 10 percent
Answer:
P0 = $9.0767092 rounded off to $9.08
Explanation:
The dividend discount model (DDM) can be used to calculate the price of the stock today. DDM calculates the price of a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under DDM is,
P0 = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + Dn / (1+r)^n + [(Dn * (1+g) / (r - g)) / (1+r)^n]
Where,
D1, D2, ... , Dn is the dividend expected in Year 1,2 and so on g is the constant growth rate in dividends r is the discount rate or required rate of return
P0 = 0.31 / (1+0.1) + 0.36 * / (1+0.1)^2 + 0.51 / (1+0.1)^3 + 0.81 / (1+0.1)^4 +
[(0.81 * (1+0.025) / (0.1 - 0.025)) / (1+0.1)^4]
P0 = $9.0767092 rounded off to $9.08
A company purchased land for $82,000 cash. Commissions of $8,000, property taxes of $8,500, and title insurance of $2,200 were also incurred. The $8,500 in property taxes includes $5,400 in back taxes paid by the company on behalf of the seller and $3,100 due for the current year after the purchase date. For what amount should the company record the land
Answer:
the amount that company should record the land is $97,600
Explanation:
The computation of the amount that company should record the land is shown below:
The Amount should be recorded for land is
= Purchase price + Commission + Property tax paid on behalf of seller + Title insurance
= $82,000 + $8,000 + $5,400 + $2,200
= $97,600
hence, the amount that company should record the land is $97,600

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV is a capital budgeting method
Only projects with a positive NPV should be accepted. A project with a negative NPV should not be chosen because it isn't profitable.
When choosing between positive NPV projects, choose the project with the highest NPV first because it is the most profitable
For example, a project costs 100. the cash flow in year 1 and 2 is $500 each. the discount rate is 10%
the NPV can be calculated using the financial calculator
NPV = $767.77
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Explanation:
The Iberia Tire Company has 3,000 tires in its inventory which are considered obsolete. Each tire originally cost the company $35 and the normal selling price was $45 per tire. Management is considering two options to reduce these inventory levels. Option one is to sell the tires directly to car dealerships for $30 per tire as opposed to the normal selling price of $45 per tire. The other option is to offer their current customers a $10 per tire rebate on their purchase. In addition to the $10 rebate, the program would cost the company approximately $24,000 to manage. They predict that either option will rid them completely of their excess The decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:_______
A. A $21,000 increase in profits.
B. A $9,000 increase in profits.
C. A $15,000 decrease in profits.
D. A $24,000 decrease in profits.
Answer:
B. A $9,000 increase in profits
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what The decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:
First step is to calculate the net selling prices for each group
Car dealership total price of sales = 3000 × 30 Car dealership total price of sales =$90,000
Current customers;
First step is to calculate the price of 1 tire
Price of 1 tire = $45 - $10 rebate
Price of 1 tire = $35
Total selling price = 35 × 3000
Total selling price= $105,000
Second step is to calculate net amount gotten from sales to customers
Net income= $105,000 - $24,000
Net income= $81,000
Now let calculate what the decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:
Decision to sell = 90,000 - 81,000
Decision to sell= $9,000 increase in profits
Therefore the decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:$9,000 increase in profits

On January 1, 2019, QRS Company granted 80,000 stock options to certain executives. The options may be exercised on or after December 31, 2022, and expire on January 1, 2026. Each option can be exercised to acquire one share of $1 par common stock for $5. The fair value of each options was estimated to be $3 on the grant date. What amount should QRS recognize as compensation expense for 2020
Answer:
The amount QRS should recognize as compensation expense for 2020 is $80,000.
Explanation:
NS = Number of shares granted as stock option = 80,000
FV = Fair value of the options on the date of grant = $3
N = Number of years from December 31, 2022 to January 1, 2026 = 3
Therefore, we have:
Total compensation expenses = NS * FV = 80,000 * $3 = $240,000
Amount QRS should recognize as compensation expense for 2020 = Total compensation expenses / n = $240,000 / 3 = $80,000

Q = 875 + 6XA + 15Y - 5P ……………………..(1)
Where:
Q = quantity sold = ?
XA = Advertising = $100,000
Y = Income = $10,000
P = Price = $100
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Q = 875 + (6 * 100,000) + (15 * 10,000) - (5 * 100)
Q = 750,375
Therefore, we have:
Predicted value of sales = Q * P = 750,375 * $100 = $75,037,500
Therefore, the predicted value of sales is $75,037,500.
From the fitted regression, the predicted value of sales will be 1125.
The estimated demand function is given as:
Q = 875 + 6XA + 15Y − 5P
The explanatory variables will be:
Advertising = $100,000 = 100
Income = $10,000 = 10
Price = $100
The values will be put in the estimated equation and this will be:
Q = 875 + 6XA + 15Y − 5P
Q = 875 + (6 × 100) + (15 × 10) - (5 × 100)
Q = 875 + 600 + 150 - 500
Q = 1125
