Describe at least three exchange rate factors that are likely to attract foreign investors to a country's currency. Explain why these factors are attractive to foreign investors.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 1. High Interest

2. Low Government Debt

3. Political Stability

Explanation:

Foreign Investors are Investors and investors always like to invest where there are prospects of growth and profit.

High Interest Rates give them the opportunity to invest their money in a currency that will give them a great return because a country where there are high interest rates imparts this on its currency which causes it to rise in value thereby giving currency holders a capital gain.

Another factor is Government Debt. A country with high Government debt will typically be unable to raise funds through the bond market easily. This shortage of funds can lead to inflation which devalues currency causing foreign currency investors to flee.

Finally there is the Political Factor (other factors exist). A stable country politically stands a better chance of maintaining a higher value currency that one with lower political stability. This is because political Stability attracts investors and as more investments come into a country, this reflects in its currency by making it stronger which will attract foreign currency investors.

Audreys free-throw percentage so far this season is .875. If she makes only 13 of her next 20 free throws, her percentage will drop to .860. How many free throws has Audrey made this season?



solve using a guess and check method

Answers

Answer: 245

Explanation:

From the question, Audreys free-throw percentage this season is 0.875 and if she makes only 13 of her next 20 free throws, the percentage will drop to 0.860. To calculate the number of free throws Audrey has made this season goes thus:

Audrey's current rate = 0.875

Let us say y out of z should be 0.875

y/z = 0.875 ........ equation i

Therefore,

y+13/z+20 = 0.860 ........ equation ii

Recall that y/z = 0.875

y = 0.875z

Put the value of y into equation ii

y+13/z+20 = 0.860

0.875z + 13/z + 20 = 0.860

Cross multiply

0.875z + 13 = 0.860(z + 20)

0.875z + 13 = 0.860z + 17.2

Collect like terms

0.875z - 0.860z = 17.2 - 13

0.015z = 4.2

z = 4.2/0.015

z = 280

Since y =0.875z

y = 0.875 × 280

y= 245

Therefore, the number of throws Audrey made this season is 245

Assume that $4.4 million is deposited into a bank with a reserve requirement of 16 percent. Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. a. What is the money supply as a result

Answers

Answer:

$3696000

Explanation:

Given:

Amount deposited into a bank is $4.4 million with a reserve requirement of 16 percent.

To find: money supply

Solution:

Amount deposited into a bank = $4.4 million = $4400000

Amount of reserve = [tex]\frac{16}{100}[/tex] × 4400000 = $704000

Money supply = Amount deposited into a bank - Amount of reserve

= $4400000 - $704000

=$3696000

Ridiculousness, Inc., has sales of $44,000, costs of $20,600, depreciation expense of $1,700, and interest expense of $1,000. If the tax rate is 35 percent, what is the operating cash flow, or OCF

Answers

Answer:

Operating cash flow= 15,155

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Ridiculousness, Inc., has sales of $44,000, costs of $20,600, depreciation expense of $1,700, and interest expense of $1,000.

Tax rate= 35%

To calculate the operating cash flow, we need to use the following structure:

Sales= 44,000

COGS= (20,600)

Gross profit= 23,400

Depreciation= (1,700)

Interest= (1,000)

EBT= 20,700

Tax= 20,700*0.35= (7,245)

Depreciation= 1,700

Chuck Olson, age 16, buys a used car from Bobby Duncan Used Cars Center on September 15, 2006. Olson agrees to pay $200 a month for 12 months. A month after the purchase, Olson is involved in an accident that wrecks the car. He immediately calls Duncan Cars and informs them that he is disaffirming the contract. According to traditional common laws, which of the following is most likely to be true?
a. Olson does not have a duty to place Duncan in status quo ante
b. Olson can ask Duncan to pay for the damages as he hasn't made the full payment for the car.
c. Olson has to pay for the damages and then return the car to Duncan.
d. Olson can successfully press charges and force Duncan to take care of the damages caused to the car.

Answers

Answer:

Olson can successfully press charges and force Duncan to take care of the damages caused to the car ( D )

Explanation:

Chuck Olson age 16 ( a minor ) can successfully press charges and request/force Bobby Duncan used cars center to take care of the damages caused to the car. this is because according to traditional common laws a contract entered by a minor is considered null and void hence Olson can successfully disaffirm the contract and Bobby Duncan would have to accept the damages and take care of them.

A minor is not required by traditional common law to entered into any form of obligatory contract.

The company's fixed costs that are traceable to the Northern branch is $175,000, while fixed costs that are traceable to the Southern branch is $180,000. The Northern branch is further divided into two segments based on the customer types: the local and the nonlocal. Traceable fixed cost for the local is $68,250, and traceable fixed cost for the nonlocal is $88,700.

How much is the common fixed costs of the two order types for the Northern branch?

Answers

Answer:

$18,050

Explanation:

The computation of the common fixed cost of two order types for the northern branch is shown below:

= Company fixed cost traceable to the northern branch   - traceable fixed cost for the local - traceable fixed cost for the non local

= $175,000 - $68,250 - $88,700

= $18,050

For computing it we simply deducted the traceable fixed cost from the company fixed cost so that the common fixed cost for the two orders types could come

The common fixed cost is the cost which supports more than the one division in the same business

The Chief Information Officer (CIO) and the Managing Director (MD) of Illustrious Limited recently had the following conversation regarding the development of a new information system for the company: CIO: The way to go about the analysis is to first examine the old system, such as reviewing key documents and observing the workers performing their tasks. Then we can determine which aspects are working well and which should be preserved. MD: We have been through these types of projects before, and what always ends up happening is that we do not get the new system we are promised. Instead, we get a modified version of the old system. CIO: I can assure you that this will not happen this time. My team just want a thorough understanding of what is working well and what is not. MD: I would feel much more comfortable if we first started with a list of our requirements. We should spend more time determining what exactly we want the system to do upfront. Then your team can come in and determine what portions to salvage if you wish. Just don’t constrain us to the old system! Required: a) The CIO and MD have different views on how the system analysis should be performed. Comment on whose position you sympathize with the most. b) What method would you recommend to Illustrious Limited for system analysis? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Illustrious Limited

a) I sympathize with the MD.  He noted "We have been through these types of projects before, and what always ends up happening is that we do not get the new system we are promised. Instead, we get a modified version of the old system."  The implication of his assertion is that something is missing in the way the CIO and her team had been handling system development projects in the past.  Even the CIO acknowledged the MD's assertions by assuring "that this will not happen this time."  In the past, the system development team had neglected understanding "what is working well and what is not."  This should not be the case in any good system development.  Preliminary analysis or investigation should uncover users' requirements and then conduct a thorough system analysis before the design and other stages are carried out in an iterative process.

b) I would recommend SCRUM instead of the Waterfall methodology.  With Scrum, the system development project is teamwork.   The team is held accountable and SCRUM utilizes iteration to achieve well-defined goals.  The SCRUM framework "begins with a simple premise, starting with what can be seen or known before it tracks progress and tweaks as necessary," to achieve set goals defined by users' requirements.

Explanation:

a) System Development is a process that follows a system development life cycle (SDLC) methodology and involves these seven stages: requirement analysis, system analysis, system design, development or programming, testing, implementation and documentation, and evaluation and support.

b) SCRUM is a framework in SDLC which follows "a set of meetings, tools, and roles that work in concert to help teams structure and manage their work."  SCRUM has been described as "an agile way to manage a project," especially software development because of its "iterative and flexible approaches."

c)  Waterfall model, on the other hand, follows linear sequential phases of conception, initiation, analysis, design, construction, testing, deployment, and maintenance, and each stage depends on the deliverables of the previous stage.  This is why "in software development, it tends to be among the less iterative and flexible approaches, as progress flows in largely one direction ("downwards" like a waterfall) through the phases."

Calip Corporation, a merchandising company, reported the following results for October: Sales $413,000 Cost of goods sold (all variable) $169,100 Total variable selling expense $20,700 Total fixed selling expense $17,900 Total variable administrative expense $13,100 Total fixed administrative expense $30,400 The contribution margin for October is:_________.
a) $210,100
b) $364,700
c) $161,800
d) $243,900

Answers

Answer:

$243,900

Explanation:

Calip corporation reported the following results for the month of October

Sales= $413,000

Cost of goods sold= $169,100

Total variable sling expenditure= $20,700

Total fixed selling expense= $17,900

Total variable administrative expense= $13,100

Total fixed administrative expense= $30,400

The contribution margin can be calculated by subtracting the total cost of goods sold from the sales

= $413,000-$169,100

= $243,900

Hence the contribution margin for October is $243,900

Texas Roadhouse opened a new restaurant in October. During its first three months of operation, the restaurant sold gift cards in various amounts totaling $3,500. The cards are redeemable for meals within one year of the purchase date. Gift cards totaling $728 were presented for redemption during the first three months of operation prior to year-end on December 31. The sales tax rate on restaurant sales is 4%, assessed at the time meals (not gift cards) are purchased. Texas Roadhouse will remit sales taxes in January.
Required:
1. Record (in summary form) the $3,500 in gift cards sold (keeping in mind that, in actuality, the firm would record each sale of a gift card individually).
2. Record the $728 in gift cards redeemed. The $728 includes a 4% sales tax of $28.

Suppose that a company's equity is currently selling for $28.25 per share and that there are 4.7 million shares outstanding and 27 thousand bonds outstanding, which are selling at 100 percent of par. If the firm was considering an active change to their capital structure so that the firm would have a D/E of 1.7, which type of security (stocks or bonds) would they need to sell to accomplish this, and how much would they have to sell

Answers

Answer:

Debt would be issued

amount of debt issuance is $ 198,717,500.00  

Explanation:

Target capital structure  is Debt/Equity=1.7

Current capital structure=debt value/equity value

equity  value=$28.25*4,700,000=$132,775,000.00  

debt value=27,000*$1000=$27,000,000

Current D/E=$27,000,000/$132,775,000= 0.20  

This implies that debt would to be increased

The required amount of debt is computed below which is x

1.7=x/132,775,000.00

x=1.7*132,775,000.00

x=$ 225,717,500.00  

Required debt is $225,717,500.00  

amount of debt issue=required debt-existing debt= 225,717,500.00-27,000,000=$198,717,500.00

Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound known as Zoom. The direct materials and direct labor standards for one unit of Zoom are given below:



Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price
or Rate Standard Cost
Direct materials 5.6 pounds $ 3.00 per pound $ 16.80
Direct labor 0.4 hours $ 7.00 per hour $ 2.80


During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded:
a. Ten thousand eight hundred pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.90 per pound.
b.
The company produced only 1,080 units, using 9,720 pounds of material. (The rest of the material purchased remained in raw materials inventory.)

c. Five hundred and thirty two hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $6,384.
Required:

Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Direct materials price variance F
Direct materials quantity variance U

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard:

Direct materials 5.6 pounds $ 3.00 per pound

Actual:

10,800 pounds were purchased at a cost of $2.90 per pound.

The company produced only 1,080 units, using 9,720 pounds of material.

To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (3 - 2.9)*10,800

Direct material price variance= $1,080 favorable

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (5.6*1,080 - 9,720)*3

Direct material quantity variance= $11,016 unfavorable

Suppose Antonio and Caroline are playing a game in which both must simultaneously choose the action Left or Right. The payoff matrix that follows shows the payoff each person will earn as a function of both of their choices. For example, the lower-right cell shows that if Antonio chooses Right and Caroline chooses Right, Antonio will receive a payoff of 3 and Caroline will receive a payoff of 7.

Caroline
Left Right
Antonio Left 4, 6 6, 8
Right 7, 5 3, 7

The only dominant strategy in this game is for_________ to choose________ . The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Antonio chooses_________ and Caroline chooses_________ .

Answers

Answer:

Caroline to choose right

Antonio chooses left and Caroline chooses right.

Explanation:

Interpreting the payoff matrix:

Both choose right:

Antonio receives 3, Caroline receives 7

Both choose left:

Antonio receives 4, Carolina receives 6

Caroline chooses left, Antonio chooses right:

Antonio receives 7, Caroline receives 5

Caroline chooses right, Antonio chooses left:

Antonio receives 6, Caroline receives 8

As we can see, Antonio only has a better payoff then Caroline if she chooses left and he chooses right. Therefore, the dominant strategy is for Caroline to choose right, this way she will always have the greater payoff.

If Antonio chooses right, the outcome may alter depending on the outcome, therefore it is not a Nash Equilibrium. However, if Antonio chooses left, no matter what Caroline chooses, she will have the greater payoff. At the same time, if Caroline chooses right, Antonio cannot change the outcome by changing his strategy. Therefore, the outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Antonio chooses left and Caroline chooses right.

Private solutions to correct for externalities consider the following scenario:________.
Suppose that a chicken farm uses a nearby stream to dispose of the wastes released by its chickens. These wastes flow downstream into a lake that has become thick with algae and polluted due to the minerals in the waste matter. The local office of a nonprofit environmental organization collects enough donations to stop the farm's pollution.
Which of the following types of private solutions to the externality of pollution has occurred in this case?
A. Integration of different types of businesses
B. Contracts
C. Moral codes and social sanctions
D. Charities
It's important to note that sometimes private solutions to externalities do not work. For example, this occurs when communications barriers or social customs are important enough relative to the potential gains involved that __________

Answers

Answer: Charities; coordinating negotiations among all of the parties too costly

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that that a chicken farm uses a nearby stream to dispose of the wastes that is released by its chickens and that the wastes flow downstream into a lake that has become polluted due to the waste matter. The local office of a nonprofit environmental organization then collects enough donations in order to stop the farm's pollution.

The type types of private solutions to the pollution externality which has occured is charity. This is because it is a voluntary activity. The money collected is meant for a specific objective which is to tackle the issue of pollution.

It is also vital to note that sometimes the private solutions to externalities might not work. For example, this occurs when communications barriers or social customs are important enough relative to the potential gains involved that coordinating negotiations among all of the parties too costly.

Answers

Answer:

a. Working capital.

current assets - current liabilities

current year = 7,800,000 - 3,900,000 = $3,900,000          last year = 5,940,000 - 2,760,000 = $3,180,000

b. The current ratio. (Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.)

current year = 7,800,000 / 3,900,000 = 2          last year = 5,940,000 / 2,760,000 = 2.15

c. The acid-test ratio. (Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.)

current year = (7,800,000 - 3,900,000) / 3,900,000 = 1          last year = (5,940,000 - 2,400,000) / 2,760,000 = 1.28

d. The average collection period. (The accounts receivable at the beginning of last year totaled $1,750,000.) (Use 365 days in a year. Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal place.)

turnover ratio = net sales / average accounts receivable

7

7.03

current year = 365 / 7 = 52.14 days       last year = 365 / 7.03 = 51.92 days

e. The average sale period. (The inventory at the beginning of last year totaled $2,110,000.) (Use 365 days in a year. Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal place.)

current year = {[(3,900,000 + 2,400,000) / 2] / $12,600,000} x 365 = 91.25 dayslast year =  {[(2,400,000 + $2,110,000) / 2] / $9,900,000} x 365 = 83.14 days

f. The operating cycle. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal place.)

current year = 52.14 + 91.25 = 143.39 days      last year = 51.92 + 83.14 = 135.06 days

g. The total asset turnover. (The total assets at the beginning of last year totaled $14,690,000.) (Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.)

current year = 15,750,000 / [(17,100,000 + 14,880,000)/2] = 0.98         last year = 12,480,000 / [(14,880,000 + 14,690,000)/2] = 0.84

Consider the hypothetical example of Dominion Island that has firms producing only two goods, gold and cotton, the
proceeds of which it uses to purchase other goods and services from neighbouring islands through its banks. Assuming
that all other required institutions in an economy are prevalent in this island, discuss the circular flow of income and
spending in Dominion Island. No diagram is required.

Answers

Answer:

Circular Flow of Income simply refers to how money moves from one point to another through an economy.

Explanation:

Inflow

In every economy, the household sector must engage in spending. This is referred to as Consumption (C).    

When injects money via public projects, and other forms of spending, it is referred to as Government Spending (G).

In the case above, the money flows from those who produce the gold and the cotton.

The two firms producing goods (gold and cotton) also inject money into the economy when they invest and expand their operations. This is referred to as (I).    

As the produce gold and cotton and export to other neighbouring Islands, more money flows into the economy. This is typified by (X).

From the monies they receive, they pay their workers the banks make money from the transactions and also pay their workers, hence the Consumption loop is completed.  

Outflow

Both the bank and the companies producing gold and cotton and the workers who have received payment all pay taxes (T) to the government. This reduces the flow of money in circulation but also enables Government Spending. Hence the Government Spending loop is completed.

The household and businesses also keep monies aside. This is called savings (S) and also has a way of reducing money from the economy when it increases.

Another leakage happens when the two firms import raw materials and labour for their production. Let's call this (M). When importation happens, money leaves the economy and the Import-Export loop is completed.

Let's examine the Inflow-Outflow factors      

All the income (inflow) into Dominion Island are captured as C + G + X + I while  

all the expenditure/outflows of Dominion Island are captured as T + S + M.

The relationship between the inflow and the outflow also helps us to understand the Gross Domestic Product of Dominion Island.

"GDP of Dominion Island is defined as the  value (in monetary terms) of all finished goods and services made within it in a given period." It can also be summarised as "the sum of monies spent by consumers, the government, monies invested by the firms in Dominion Island, and the income from exports minus the total value of imports into Dominion Island.

Put in the form of an equation GDP for Dominion Island therefore  

= C + G + I + (X – M).

Cheers!

Explanation:

The groups in this island of Dominion are;

1.  the firm

2. the banks

3. the workers

4. neigboring islands

For the firms, they have:

1. In one case cash outflows to labourers who work to produce the two products gold and cotton.

2. And in another case, the firms are consumers since they pay for other products available in neighbouring islands.

For the banks, they get cash inflows since they receive payments from the two firms.

For workers, who receive their wages from the firms take this wages to their individual households as cash inflows which they spend in the economy making them Consumers and they may likely save some part of their wages.

For the neighbouring islands, they receive cash inflows from Dominion island as exports.

Explanation:

Cumulative, Preferred Stock attracts fixed dividend every year, whether profit is made or not, and whether dividend is declared or not.  In any year when there is no dividend declared, the dividend due to cumulative preferred stock is accumulated and paid whenever dividend is declared.  And the holders of cumulative prefered stock take precedence in receiving dividends.

Preferred Stock is a class of stock that attracts fixed dividend based on percentage.  They have preference with respect to dividend before the Common Stock  and in the sharing of company resources.  There are many variants.  Some are cumulative and others are non-cumulative.  Some are participatory while others are not.
