这个比率越高,说明公司的财务杠杆越大,偿债能力越弱。

因此,资产负债率是反映公司偿债能力的重要指标。

2. 问题:在进行股票投资分析时,以下哪项因素是影响股票价格的宏观经济因素?A) 公司盈利能力B) 利率水平C) 行业竞争状况D) 公司管理层能力答案:B) 利率水平解析:宏观经济因素包括利率水平、通货膨胀率、经济增长率等,这些因素会影响整个经济环境,进而影响股票市场。

利率水平是宏观经济因素之一,它会影响公司的融资成本和投资者的预期回报,从而对股票价格产生影响。

3. 问题:在固定收益投资中,以下哪项因素会导致债券价格上升?A) 市场利率上升B) 市场利率下降C) 债券信用评级下降D) 债券到期时间延长答案:B) 市场利率下降解析:在固定收益投资中,债券价格与市场利率呈反向关系。

当市场利率下降时,新发行的债券的票息率会低于市场上已有的债券,因此已有债券的相对吸引力增加,导致其价格上升。

4. 问题:在投资组合管理中,以下哪项策略是用于降低非系统性风险的?A) 资产配置B) 多元化投资C) 市场时机选择D) 杠杆投资答案:B) 多元化投资解析:非系统性风险是指特定于某个公司或行业的投资风险,这种风险可以通过多元化投资来降低。

通过投资于多个不同公司或行业的资产,可以减少单一资产或行业波动对整个投资组合的影响。

5. 问题:在金融衍生品中,以下哪项产品允许投资者在未来以特定价格买入或卖出资产?A) 期货合约B) 远期合约C) 期权合约D) 掉期合约答案:C) 期权合约解析:期权合约是一种金融衍生品,它赋予持有者在未来某个时间以特定价格买入或卖出资产的权利,但不是义务。

D.Inventory turnover, defined as COGS/Average inventory, if often meaningless forLIFO companies due to the mismatching of costs. The numerator representscurrent costs, whereas the denominator reports outdated historical costs.

Net profit margin, defined as EA T/Sales,is higher during periods of decreasing profits for LIFO companies. LIFO leadsto a smaller COGS, which reduces EAT, without affecting sales.56. A.In this situation, LIFO results in lower cost of goods sold because it uses the morerecent and lower costs than LIFO. LIFO results in lower cash flows becausethe cash on income taxes is a percentage(the marginal tax rate) of thedifference in inventory values. Thus, with LIFO:Sales-COGS(smaller)EBT (larger)-Taxes (larger) Because taxes paid out are a cash outflow.EAT (larger) If taxes are larger, then cash flow ill be smaller.57.

D.Inventory turnover, defined as COGS/Average inventory, if often meaningless forLIFO companies due to the mismatching of costs.

Net profit margin, defined as EA T/Sales,is higher during periods of decreasing profits for LIFO companies. LIFO leadsto a smaller COGS, which reduces EAT, without affecting sales.56. A.In this situation, LIFO results in lower cost of goods sold because it uses the morerecent and lower costs than LIFO. LIFO results in lower cash flows becausethe cash on income taxes is a percentage(the marginal tax rate) of thedifference in inventory values. Thus, with LIFO:Sales-COGS(smaller)EBT (larger)-Taxes (larger) Because taxes paid out are a cash outflow.EAT (larger) If taxes are larger, then cash flow ill be smaller.57.
