Widget Inc. Earnings Statement

Sales: $200,000

Cost of Goods Sold: $80,000

Selling & General Expenses: $40,000

Depreciation: $5,000

Total Expenses: $30,000

  2. $50,000
  3. $120,000
  4. $45,000

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

"Sales are reduced by the expenses that were incurred in order to generate the goods sold (cost of goods sold). These expenses include the cost of inventories used to produce the goods as well as the labour that went into their production. The sales revenue, net of the cost of producing those goods, is known as gross profit. In this case, gross profit = $200,000 - $80,000 = $120,000."

The ZZZ Money Market Fund has a 7-day yield of 0.05%.
What is the current yield for the fund?

Round your answer to two decimal places.

  1. 1.61%
  2. 2.22%
  3. 0.05%
  4. 2.61%

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The current yield for a money market fund is calculated by annualizing the 7-day yield: (7-day yield × 365 / 7). For a 7-day yield of 0.05% (0.0005), the calculation is: 0.0005 × 365 / 7 = 0.02607 or 2.61%.
The feedback from the document states:

"The current yield for a money market fund is calculated as the most recent seven-day yield on the fund, adjusted to an annual rate. The formula is: Current yield = (Seven-day yield × 365 / 7). In this case the current yield is (0.0005 × 365 / 7) = 0.0261."
