Answer:
11.15%
Explanation:
Given that
Risk free rate of return= 5%
Beta = 1.69
Expected rate of return = 15.4%
As per capital asset pricing model
Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - risk free rate of return)
15.4% = 5% + 1.69 × (Market rate of return - 5%)
After solving this
Market rate of return = 11.15%
b. reissuing treasury stock
c. purchase of long-term assets by issuing bonds
d. purchase of noncash assets by issuing equity

Explanation:
Investing Activities in the Cashflow Statement refer to transactions that have to do with the buying and selling of Capital Goods such as Fixed Assets. It also refers to investments in other company bonds and stock.
Financing has to do with how the firm finances it's operations. These include long term debt and stock related transactions.
When these transactions are non-cash, it means quite rightly that no cash was exchanged and instead something else for exchanged instead of cash. For example, A non-cash Investing and Financing activity would be the purchase of long-term assets by issuing bonds.
In this question, option B being the reissuance of Treasury Stock is not a non-cash transaction. Treasury Stock is the company's own stock that it required from the market. By reissuing it, they will be doing so with cash involved. That is, people will buy the reissued shares and pay cash for them thus making it a Cash Financing Activity.

Answer:
False
Explanation:
This is a True/False question and the answer is false because of the reason highlighted below.
When there's a decrement in the values of the market price of a 100 shares, there's a high probability that one will receive a margin call. The essence of the margin call is none other than asking to make up for the loss in the decreased value of the 100 shares because legally, the brokerage firm have the right to sell one's shares in other to cover your losses.
And also because, buying on margin can never be an "interest free.", this is the reason why the broker will demand the payment of interest on the loan.
The question discusses margin trading in the stock market, where the investor borrows money from a broker to buy more shares. In this example, the investor buys 100 IBM shares at $120 each, contributing half the total cost and borrowing the rest. If the share price rises, the investor can sell, repay the loan, and make a profit.
The topic here is related to stock market investing and more specifically, margin trading. When you buy on margin, you are essentially borrowing money from your broker to purchase more stocks than you could with just your available cash. In your example, you bought 100 shares of IBM for $120/share, which totals $12,000.
Since the margin on your account is 50%, this means that you only need to provide half of this amount, or $6,000, and the broker will loan you the remaining $6,000. The goal is that the price of IBM shares sufficiently rises, at which point you may choose to sell your shares, repay the broker's $6,000 loan, and then keep any remaining profit as your capital gain.

Where;
Fc= Final Capital
Ic= Inicial Capital
i= interest rate
n= period
In this particular case:
Fc = 1234 (1+0.034556) ^ 8 + 2345 (1+0.03456) ^ 6
Fc = 4,494.68

Answer: The adjusting entries for the uncollectible accounts would be as follows: Debit Bad debt expense $277,500; Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts $277,500
Explanation: As provided in the question, bad debt expense is determined by the percentage of sales method. In this instance, it is estimated at 1/4 of 1% of sales. 1% of $102,480,000 = $1,024,800; 1/4 of $1,024,800 = $256,200. Please note that there was an existing debit balance of $21,300 in allowance for doubtful accounts (usually, it should have a credit balance), in order to reinstate the allowance for doubtful account to $256,200, we have to credit it with $277,500 ($256,200 + $21,300), by way of the journals above.
The adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts can be calculated by adding the estimated bad debt expense ($256,200) to the existing balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts ($21,300), resulting in a total adjusting entry of $277,500.
To find out the amount of the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts, you first need to calculate the bad debt expense. Since the question states that bad debt expense is estimated to be 1/4 of 1% of sales, we would find this by multiplying $102,480,000 by 0.0025 (1/4 of 1%).
Bad debt expense = $102,480,000 * 0.0025 = $256,200
Given that the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts already has a balance (which is a debit balance of $21,300), we need to add this to the estimated bad debt expense to determine the adjusting entry.
Adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts = Bad debt expense + Existing Balance in Allowance for doubtful accounts
= $256,200 + $21,300 = $277,500
