Stephanie Carter has been gifted a sum of $50,000 by her grandparents on completing her graduation successfully. She is a fresh finance graduate and is excited to invest some money in the capital market, for which she intends to use the gifted sum of $50,000. However, instead of committing this money to the market immediately, she decides to wait for some time, work in the field and acquire some experience before proceeding with her intended investment. She thus contemplates an extremely conservative investment in a portfolio of stocks and bonds, at the start of year 5 from now. For now, she will leave the $50,000 in a fixed deposit with the bank which promises an interest rate of 6% per annum.
She will require a return of at least 9% on her stock investments and 4% on bond investments. Stephanie would have to pay 25% taxes on any interest income. Dividends will be tax-free. Stephanie’s research has allowed her to narrow down on the following investment candidates:

- Suppose Clinton decides to use $9,500 currently held as savings to make a financial investment. One method of making a financial investment is the purchase of stock or bonds from a private company. Suppose Arcadia, a biomedical research firm, is selling stocks to raise money for a new lab. This practice is called finance. Buying a share of Arcadia stock would give Clinton the firm. In the event that Arcadia runs into financial difficulty, will be paid first. Suppose Clinton chooses to buy 250 shares of Arcadia stock. Which of the following statements are correct? Check all that apply. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is an example of a stock exchange where he can purchase Arcadia stock. Expectations of a recession that will reduce economywide corporate profits will likely cause the value of Clinton's shares to decline. The price of his shares will rise if Arcadia issues additional shares of stock. Alternatively, Clinton could undertake their financial investment by purchasing bonds…arrow_forwardSuppose you are 28 and married. You and your spouse file for income taxes jointly. You are in the 25% tax bracket. You are considering a few personal investment issues. While insurance is an effective way to protect against undesirable risk, it is by no means the only way. There exist many other tools for personal risk management. Cash reserve is one such example. By keeping cash reserve, you self-insure against unexpected future loss. Compared with self-insurance using cash reserve, buying insurance has both pros and cons. The biggest pro is mortality pooling—more efficient to manage risk on the group level than on the individual level. The biggest con is the high price of insurance policy. The high insurance premium results not just from an insurance company’s costs of producing the insurance but also from the high costs to market it (e.g.,commissions paid to insurance agents) and the additional costs caused the prevalent adverse selection and moral hazard problems in the…arrow_forwardSean and Amy Anderson have a home with an appraised value of $180,000 and a mortgage balance of only $90,000. Given that an S&L is willing to lend money at a loan-to-value ratio of 75%, how big a home equity credit line can Sean and Amy obtain? How much, if any, of this line would qualify as tax-deductible interest if their house originally cost $100,000?arrow_forward
