Answer:

How much must Icon allow Emily to diversify this year?

The answer is $250,000

Explanation:

  • After attaining the age of 55 years and participating already for ten years in the ESOP.
  • Emily will be allowed to diversify the value equal to 25% of investments.
  • 50% of the investment is allowed to be diversified if it is final year of participation but in the present case it is not the final year before the retirement of the Emily so she will not be allowed 50% diversification and only up to 25% is allowed on which the percentage of investment already diversified in previous years will also be reduced.
  • Since here in the past no amount has been diversified by Emily so she will be allowed 25 % of investment to diversify in the current year which comes to $250,000 ($1,000,000* 25%). Thus the answer is $250,000.

The question is incomplete as there is no above statement here. Here a general interpretation of the question shall be made.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

If you are alone in heavy expressway traffic at rush hour, use the middle lane to avoid vehicles constantly entering and exiting your path. If the lanes are three wide, using the middle lane allows you to move easily in either direction. If the road only has two lanes, it’s best to be in the left lane to avoid in coming traffic.

Leo received $7,500 today and will receive another $5,000 two years from today. He will invest these funds when he receives them
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Value of Investment= Principal (1+Rate of return)^Number of periods

For the first investment the principal is 7,500, the rate of return is 11.5% and the number of periods are 5 so the value of the investment will be

7,500 (1+0.115)^5=12,925

For the second investment the principal is 5,000, the rate of return is 11.5 and the number of periods are 3 as the 5,000 is invested two years from today.

5,000*(1+0.115)^3=6,931

Total value of investments = 12,925 +6,931 = $19,856
