tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

The loan will be reported in the December 31, 2019 and 2018, balance sheets, is shown below:-

Balance sheet(Partial)

As of December 31

2016 2015

Current liabilities

Current portion of long term debt $3,000 $2,000

Long term liabilities

Long term debt $10,000 $13,000

Total liabilities $13,000 $15,000

On December 2018 we represent the current liability of $2,000 loan because of year 31 December 2019 within of one year and the left portion of the loan represent as long term liability because it is not within one year from the balance sheet.

On December 2019 Loan remains outstanding $13,000 ($2,000 repaid on November 2019) from this amount, on November 30, $3,000 is due. So, $3,000 should be represented as current liability and the left balance $10,000 represented as long term debt.

g100num [7]

Complete question:

Assume that your uncle holds just one stock, East Coast Bank (ECB), which he thinks has very little risk. You agree that the stock is relatively safe, but you want to demonstrate that his risk would be even lower if he were more diversified. You obtain the following returns data for West Coast Bank (WCB). Both banks have had less variability than most other stocks over the past 5 years.

Year ECB WCB

2004 40.00% 40.00%

2005 -10.00% 15.00%

2006 35.00% -5.00%

2007 -5.00% -10.00%

2008 15.00% 35.00%

a. What is the expected return and risk of each stock?

b. Measured by the standard deviation of returns, by how much would your uncle's risk have been reduced if he had held a portfolio consisting of 60% in ECB and the remainder in WCB? In other words, what is the difference between portfolio's standard deviation and weighted average of components' standard deviations? (Hint: check the example on page 11-12 on my note).

Solution:

The estimated return of the stock is the average profit.

So the average of ECB is (40-10+35-5+15)/5

= $\frac{75 percent}{5}$

= 15% expected return

WCB expected return = 40+15-5-10+35

= $\frac{75 percent}{5}$

= 15%

They've had the same planned return.

This is generally defined in the Greek letter Mu, (U) A weighted average may also be used to calculate portfolio volatility.

Standard deviation of ECB is $\sqrt{{ sum [(x-U)^2]/5}}$

so for ECB:

$(40-15)^2$ = $25^2$ =6.25%

$(-10-15)^2$ = $-35^2$ = 0.1225

$(35-15)^2$ = $20^2$ = 0.04

$(-5-15)^2$ = $-20^2$ = 0.04

$(15-15)^2$ =0

now 0.0625+0.1225+0.04+0.04+0=0.265

stdev= $\sqrt{(0.265/5)}$ = 0.23

So WCB is the same except in a different order to make things quick I'm only going to add the median again WCB=0.23

Then the 60/40 portfolio will be the "weighted average" of the returns.

portfolio returns

2004: (60%*40%)+(40%*40%) = 40%

2005: (60%*-10%)+(40%*15%) = 0%

2006: (60%*35%)+(40%*-5%) = 19%

2007: (60%*-5%)+(40%*-10%) = -7%

2008:(60%*15%)+(40%*35%) = 23%

we have an average return of (40+19-7+23)/5 = 75/5 =15%

The estimated return of all combined stocks is a better way to do so.

we knew they both had expected returns of 15% so we can say

(60%*15%)+(40%*15%)=15% so the portfolio has an expected return of 15%

Now we do the standard deviation for the whole portfolio and get

$(40-15)^2$ = $25^2$ =6.25%

$(0-15)^2$ = - $25^2$ =6.25%

$(19-15)^2$ = $4^2$ = 0.16%

$(-7-15)^2$ = $-22^2$ = -4.84%

$(23-15)^2$ = $8^2$ = 0.64%

now add them up and get 9.78%

$\sqrt{(9.78%/5)}$ = 13.98%

Therefore, the normal portfolio variance is 13.98 per cent and the predicted portfolio return is 15 per cent.

Every stock has a standard deviation of 23 per cent and an average return of 15 per cent, meaning that the fund has the same estimated return but with less standard deviation. This ensures that the same gain is less costly. It's stronger than any of these products.

Block Island TV currently sells large televisions for $380. It has costs of $320. A competitor is bringing a new large televisio

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Effect on income= (2,400,000)

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Current selling price= $380

New selling price= $360

Unitary cost= $320

Units sold= 150,000*1.1= 165,000

<u>We need to calculate the effect on income:</u>

Effect on income= contribution margin new sales - contribution margin old sales

Effect on income= 15,000*(360 - 320) - 150,000*(380-360)

Effect on income= (2,400,000)

<u>Prove:</u>

New income= 165,000*40= 6,600,000

Actual income= 150,000*(380-320)= 9,000,000

Difference= (2,400,000)

The Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) is a projective test ________. a. that is designed to be culturally relevant to minority gr

n200080 [17]

Answer:

c. in which people are presented with ambiguous images

Explanation:

The Thematic Apperception Test, also known as TAT, involves showing subjects ambiguous pictures and asking them to come up with an explanation for what is happening in the scene.

The way the test works is that subjects decipher or describe ambiguous situations based on their own past experiences and motivations in the form stories. This could either be conscious or subconscious. Subject usually lowers his/her guard to the examiner while describing the story. At this point, much-valuable information about the subject is being divulged.
