Answer:

d. it is balanced.

Explanation:

A budget is defined as the amount of money that is set aside for some future purpose. It is a way to effectively manage funds and avoids wastage. When one is going out of their budget they know is is an unallocated cost and this will lead to unbalanced funding for needs.

In this scenario the total budget of Jackie is

Monthly budget= fixed expenses+ living expenses+ annual expense

Monthly budget = 1,640+ 1,320+ 260

Monthly budget= $3,220

Yearly budget= monthly budget* 12

Yearly budget= 3,220* 12= $38,640

This is a perfect balance with her annual net income.

Bonds of Zello Corporation with a par value of $1,000 sell for $960, mature in five years, and have a 7% annual coupon rate paid

AURORKA [14]

Answer and Step by Step Explanation:

a i)Current yield = Coupon/Price = $70/$960 = 0.0729 = 7.29%

ii. Yield to maturity (to the nearest whole percent, i.e., 3%, 4%, 5%, etc.)

YTM = 3.993% semiannually or 7.986% annual bond equivalent yield.On a financial calculator, enter: n = 10; PV = –960; FV = 1000; PMT = 35

iii.

Realized compound yield is 4.166% (semiannually), or 8.332% annual bond equivalent yield.

Therefore to get this value, we would find the future value (FV) of reinvested coupons and principal in which there will be six payments of$35 each, reinvested semiannually at 3% per period.

PV = 0; PMT = 35; n = 6; i = 3%. Compute: FV = 226.39

Three years from now, the bond will be selling at the par value of $1,000 because the yield to maturity is forecast to equal the coupon rate. The total proceeds in three years will be: $226.39 + $1,000 =$1,226.39

The rate (yrealized) that makes the FV of the purchase price equal to $1,226.39: $960 * (1 + yrealized)6= $1,226.39

yrealized= 4.166% (semiannual)

b . i. Current yield. Current yield can be defined as the way capital gains or losses on bonds bought at prices , reinvestment income on coupon payments are not account for other than par value.

ii. Yield to maturity can be seen as the bond which is held until maturity and that all coupon income can be reinvested at a rate equal to the yield to maturity

iii. Realized compound yield are yield that is affected by the forecast of reinvestment rates, holding period, and yield of the bond at the end of the investor's holding period

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Unit of account:

There are some functions of money or we can say that characterstics of money:

(a) Medium of exchange

(b) Store of value

(c) Unit of account

(d) Standard of deferred payments

Sea shells are precious items but one cannot properly split divide those sea shells into small denominations like money does. Money is easily storable, people use as a medium of exchange and unit of account.

By unit of account we mean that we can easily measure the value of goods and service and many things in monetary terms but we cannot measure in terms of sea shells.

That's why sea shells unfit to act as money today.
