Answer:

C. Separating Management from Ownership

Explanation:

What is Agency

The agency refers to contractural, quasi-contractual and non-contractual fiduciary relationships which represents two to three parties. The first is a person called the agent, the second is the principal and the final is a third party. Agency authorizes an agent to act on behalf of the principal and create binding relatinships with a third party.

Agency Conflict

Agency conflict represents a conflict of interest which is unavoidable in an agency relationship where one party is to act in the best interest of the other party. Specifically, in the business or corporate settings, the agency conflict arises when there is a conflict of interest between an organisation's management and the owners of the organisation.

The challenge is that management who is the agent is expected at all times to make decisions that will constantly maximize the wealth of the owners and at times, these decisions would conflict with management's ability to maximize its own wealth

Therefore, once the management of an organisation is separated from ownership especially in a Management/ shareholders relationship, an agency conflict could arise.

Elodia [21]

Answer:

The total net increase in cash is $ 110,000

Explanation:

Net Increase (Decrease) in Cash = Net cash provided/(used) by operating activities + Net cash provided/(used) by investing activities + Net cash provided/(used) by financing activities.

Net Increase (Decrease) in Cash= $140,000 + $120,000 -$ 150,000

QUESTION 11 Given the following information, calculate the equity dividend rate for this investment: first-year NOI: $18,750; be
Alja [10]

Answer: D. 2.2%

Explanation: Equity Dividend Rate is calculated by dividing the Before Tax Cash Flow by the Acquisition price. If you need the answer in percentage form, you then multiply by 100.

Here, before-tax cash flow =  $11,440

Acquisition price = $520,000

So Equity Dividend Rate = \frac{11440}{520000} X 100

     Equity Dividend Rate = 2.2%

In this question, you do not need the Net Operating Income (NOI). You only need the NOI if the Before Tax Cash Flow is not given and the debt service payment is. If this is the case, you subtract the debt service payment from the NOI to get the Before Tax Cash Flow.

You just opened a brokerage account, depositing $3,500. You expect the account to earn an interest rate of 9.652%. You also plan
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

$108,583.98

Explanation:

Given:

Initial deposit = $3,500

Rate = 9.652%

You also plan on depositing $4,500 at the end of years 5 through 10.

Required:

What will be the value of the account at the end of 20 years, assuming you earn your expected rate of return?

First calculate the future value of first installment, $3500 at end of year 20, since the amount was not deposited at once:

3500 * PVIF(0.9652, 20) = 22,100.35

Calculate the future value of annual deposits at end of year 10:

Given, N = 6 years )i.e from 5 to 10 years)

I/Y = 9.652%

PV = 0

PMT = $4,500

FV(9.652%, 6, 4500, 0)

FV = $34,416.63

Calculate the future value of annual deposits at end of year 20:

Given, N = 10 Years (from end of year 10, to year 20)

PV = 34,416.43

I/Y = 9.652%

FV = 34,416.43 * PVIF(0.9652, 10)

FV = $86,483.63

The total future value at end of year 20:

Future value of initial deposit + Future Value of annual deposits

= $22,100.35 + $86,483.63

= $108,583.98

The value of the account at the end of 20 years = $108,583.98
