This draft (an
17、other name for Bill of Exchange) is often U(23) /U to the shipping documents and is called a Documentary Bill of Exchange. Banks often state that the seller can U(24) /U on them for the amount of the Credit.A buyer or his bank may ask the seller if he is willing to allow them a period of 30, 60, or
18、90 days to pay. They may write. “can you present your drafts for 60 d/s?“ this is a form of U(25) /U and allows the buyer time to pay.

21、ld for cash. To get cash quickly, payees sometimes sell a note receivable to another party before the note matures. The payee endorses the note and hands it over to the note purchaser-often a bank-who collects the maturity value of the note at the maturity date.Selling a note receivable before matur
22、ity is called discounting a note receivable because the payee of the note receives less than its maturity value. This lower price decreases the amount of interest revenue the payee earns on the note. Giving up some of this interest is the price the payee is willing to pay for the convenience of rece
23、iving cash early.Assume that the maturity date of the Dorman note is January 18, 1995 and that General Electric discounts the Dorman note at First City National Bank on December 9, 1994. The discount period-which is the number of days from the date of discounting to the date of maturity (this is the
24、 period the bank will hold the note) - is 40 days; 22 days in December, and 18 days in January. Assume the bank applies a 12 percent annual interest rate in computing the discount value of the note. The bank will want to use a discount rate that is higher than the interest rate on the note in order
25、to increase its earnings. GE may be willing to accept this higher rate in order to get cash quickly. The discounted value, called the proceeds, is the amount that GE receives from the bank. The proceeds are computed as follows:General Electrics entry to record discounting the note is:Dec. 9, 1994cas

27、alue of the note (principal plus interest) rather than on the original principal amount, and (2) the discounting period extends backwards from the maturity date (January 18, 1995) to the date of discounting (December 9, 1994).（分数：10.00）(1).What is a note receivable?（分数：2.00）A.It is a note received b

To enable a UK importer to pay his Ameri
33、can supplier, for example, the facilities of two or more banks are used, firstly in handling the often complex documentation and secondly, through the foreign exchange market, in obtaining the currency required. At one time payments to and from other countries were made by bills of exchange; hence i
34、n part the term “exchange rate“, which was maintained even though other methods of payment have largely superseded the bill of exchange. The British importer will probably need to pay his American supplier in dollars and his British bank can offer him several alternative methods of settlement. It ca
35、n provide him with a bankers draft drawn in dollars. The bank is able to do this because it will have an account with another bank (called a correspondent bank) in an American city and it simply issues a dollar cheque or draft drawn on that account. The British importer can then send this draft by a
36、irmail to the supplier.Since there is a danger that the draft may be lost or fall into the wrong hands the safer and more normal method would be for the British bank to arrange for payment by mail transfer. Instructions are sent by airmail to the correspondent bank in the US to pay on behalf of its
37、customer the required sum to the named recipient from the British banks dollar account. This mail transfer system is very flexible since the instructions for payment can be varied or elaborated to suit practically every kind of requirement.（分数：10.00）(1).How many methods of settlement are mentioned i

43、 First, a market is thought of as a formal or informal organization of buyers and sellers who conduct trades in particular commodities or services. The market may be located at a geographical meeting place, such as your friendly neighborhood bookstore or shopping center (a retail market). A market m
44、ay be organized over wide areas connected through phones or computer terminals. Although the trading room of the New York Stock Exchange is located in New York City, buyers and sellers who actively participate in this market may conduct their trades from distant locations. This description is the in
45、stitutional way of looking at a market.The second meaning of the word “market“ is used in formal economic models. Here the equations that explain the demand and supply of a commodity such as money are sometimes grouped together. Although money is traded in all markets, the reasons for supplying and
46、holding money are thought to be specific enough to warrant separate equations. This is an abstract way to think of the money market.New financial assets are traded in primary markets. Financial assets that are resold are traded in secondary markets. Finns that specialize in trading either new or rei
47、ssued financial assets are called primary and secondary dealers, respectively. Both new and reissued securities are traded in many markets, such as the U. S money market. The New York Stock Exchange, however, is a secondary market.（分数：3.00）(1).A financial market may be thought of as an ordinary mark
