Explanation:
In stock market, any security equal or senior to one listed on the NYSE is a covered security. Because, it is guaranteed by a Federal law. Municipal bonds are a covered security except in their state of issuance. On the other-hand, Pink Sheet and OTC Bulletin Board securities are not considered covered.
Jack and Jill are the only two residents in a neighborhood, and they would like to hire a security guard. The value of a security guard is $50 per month to Jack and $90 per month to Jill. Irrespective of who pays the guard, the guard will protect the entire neighborhood and charge $120 per month for the service.Suppose Jack earns $4,000 per month and Jill earns $8,000 per month. a. With a proportional tax of 1 percent on income, how much would Jack and Jill pay, and would it be enough to pay for the security guard?
Answer:
Yes their combined contribution of $120 is sufficient to pay the security guard
Explanation:
This is a form of non-rival service that does not get reduced by consumption by one of the parties. The security guard protects the entire neighbourhood.
Also it is a non-excludable service. If one party does not pay he will still enjoy the service.
Based on their income information and the fact that they are taxed 1%
Jack will pay 0.01 * 4,000 = $40
Jill will pay 0.01 * 8,000 = $80
The total sum is 40 + 80 = $120
As the security guard requires $120 to do the job, their contribution is sufficient.
However the value to Jack is $50 and he pays $40 so he has an excess value of $10
Jill gets a value of $90 but pays $80, so she gets an excess value of $10

A perfectly competitive small organic farm that produces 1,000 cauliflower heads in the short run has an ATC = $6 and AFC = $2. The market price is $3 per head and is equal to MC. In order to maximize profits (or minimize losses), this farm should:
Answer:
the firm should shut down, at least temporarily until the marginal revenue increases or definitely if the marginal revenue doesn't increase
Explanation:
if average total costs = $6 and average fixed costs = $2, then average variable costs = $6 - $2 = $4
since the average variable costs are higher than marginal revenue: $4 > $3, then the company is losing money (-$1) every time it sells its products.

Whatever state the house is in would be taken by Kelly.
Explanation:
Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annual coupon payments. Suppose a German company issues a bond with a par value of €1,000, 15 years to maturity, and a coupon rate of 7.3 percent paid annually.If the yield to maturity is 8.6 percent, what is the current price of the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
Current price �
Answer:
892.69
Explanation:
Given the following :
Par value of bond (FV) = 1000
Period (n) = 15 years
Coupon rate (r) = 7.3% annually
Yield to maturity (r) = 8.6% = 0.086
The coupon price = 7.3% of par value
Coupon price (C) = 0.073 * 1000 = 73
Current price of bond can be computed using the relation:
= C * [1 - 1 / (1 + r)^n] / r + (FV / (1 + r)^n)
73 * [1 - 1/(1+0.086)^15]/0.086 + 1000/(1 + 0.086)^15
73*(1 - 1/3.44704)/0.086 + (1000/(1.086)^15)
= 73*8.2546131 + 290.10326
= 602.5867563 + 290.10326
= 892.69

Answer:
NO
Explanation:
Wohlers Co. considers a project that will require an initial investment of 5 million. It has a target capital structure of 30% debt, 5% preferred stock, and 65% common equity. Wholers Co. has outstanding 20-year noncallable bonds with a face value of $1,000. These bonds have a current market price of $1,181.96 and an annual coupon rate of 13%. The company faces a tax rate of 40%, and can sell shares of preferred stock that pay an annual dividend of $7.50 at a price of $89.25 per share. The company's common stock is currently selling for $22.35 per share and pays a dividend of $2.45 today. The common stock's growth rate is a constant rate of 9.2%. What will be the WACC for the project
Answer:
WACC = 16.18%
Explanation:
cost of equity (Re):
P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)
$22.35 = ($2.45 x 1.092) / (Re - 9.2%)
$22.35 = $2.6754 / (Re - 9.2%)
Re - 9.2% = $2.6754 / $22.35 = 11.97%
Re = 11.97% + 9.2% = 21.17%
after tax cost of debt:
YTM = {130 + [(1,000 - $1,181.96)/ 20]} / [(1,000 + $1,181.96)/ 2] = 120.902 / 1,090.98 = 11.08%
after tax cost of debt = 11.08% x (1 - tax rate) = 11.08% x 0.6 = 6.65%
cost of preferred stocks = $7.50 / $89.25 = 8.40%
WACC = (0.65 x 21.17%) + (0.05 x 8.4%) + (0.3 x 6.65%) = 13.76% + 0.42% + 2% = 16.18%

According to an old myth, Native Americans sold the island of Manhattan about 400 years ago for $24. If they had invested this amount at an interest rate of 7 percent per year, how much, approximately, would they have today
Answer:
FV= $13,605,744,645,293.70
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment= $24
Number of years= 400
Interest rate= 7 percent compounded annually
To calculate the value of the investment today, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 24*(1.07^400)
FV= $13,605,744,645,293.70
Answer:
They would have approximately $14 000 000 000 000.
Explanation:
From the compound interest formula,
Amount = P[tex](1 + \frac{r}{n}) ^{t}[/tex]
Given that: P = $24, R = 7%, t = 400 years,
Amount = 24[tex](1 + \frac{7}{100}) ^{400}[/tex]
= 24[tex](\frac{107}{100}) ^{400}[/tex]
= 1.360574465 × [tex]10^{13}[/tex]
The amount they would have is approximately $1.4 × [tex]10^{13}[/tex]

You own 50 shares of Auto Corporation that you purchased for $30 a share. The stock is currently selling for $50 a share, and you placed a stop loss order at $45. If the stock price drops to $35 a share what is your return on this investment?
Answer: 50%
Explanation:
Purchasing price for each share = $30
Stop loss order placed at $45 for each share.
If the stock price drops to $35, the benefit earned = $ (45-30)= $15
Now, the return on this investment = (benefit earned) ÷(Purchasing price)x 100%
= (15)÷(30)x100%
= 0.5 x 100%
= 50%
So, your return on this investment = 50%

The market inverse demand curve is P = 90 – Q, where Q is the total market output consisting of Firm 1's output, q1, and Firm 2's output, q2. Both firms have a constant marginal cost of $10. If Firm 1 selects its output level first, how much output does each firm produce?
Answer:
Firm 1 produces 40 and Firm 2 produce 20
Explanation:
Given that:
The market inverse demand curve is P = 90 – Q
Total TC = 10q + 10
and θ = q₁ + q₂
Both firms have a constant marginal cost
Then :
TC₁ = 10q₁ + 10
TC₂ = 10q₂ + 10
If Firm 1 selects its output level first, then it acts as a leader and firm 2 acts as a follower.
So, let have :
Ф₂ = pq₂ - TC₂
Ф₂ = (90 - θ)q₂ - 10q₂ - 10
Ф₂ = 90q₂ - (q₁ + q₂)q₂ - 10q₂ - 10
Ф₂ = 80q₂ - q₁q₂ - q₂² - 10
[tex]\dfrac{d \phi_2}{dq_2} = 80 - q_1 - 2q_2[/tex]
80 - q₁ - 2q₂ = 0
80 - q₁ = 2q₂
2q₂= 80 - q₁
[tex]q_2 = \dfrac{80 - q_1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]q_2 = 40 - \dfrac{ q_1}{2}[/tex]
Ф₁ = pq₁- TC₁
Ф₁ = ( 90 - θ )q₁ - 10q₁ - 10
Ф₁ = 90q₁ - (q₁ + q₂)q₁ - 10q₁ - 10
Ф₁ = 80q₁ - q₁² - q₁q₂ - 10
Replace the value of q₂ in the above equation ,
[tex]\phi _1 = 80q_1 - q_1^2 - q_1 (40 - \dfrac{q_1}{2}) - 10[/tex]
[tex]\phi _1 = 80q_1 - q_1^2 - 40q_1 - \dfrac{q_1^2}{2} - 10[/tex]
[tex]\phi _1 = 40q_1 - \dfrac{q_1^2}{2} - 10[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{ d \phi_1}{ d q_1} = 40 - \dfrac{2q}{2} - 0[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{ d \phi_1}{ d q_1} = 40 - q_1[/tex]
40 - q₁= 0
q₁ = 40
Recall that
[tex]q_2 = 40 - \dfrac{ q_1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]q_2 = 40 - \dfrac{ 40}{2}[/tex]
[tex]q_2 = \dfrac{ 80-40}{2}[/tex]
[tex]q_2 = \dfrac{ 40}{2}[/tex]
q₂ = 20
Firm 1 produces 40 and Firm 2 produce 20
