3
00:00:16,240 --> 00:00:29,040
This is Business Finance, FIL 190 for spring semester 2024.

4
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:35,800
Today review for the midterm exam and that will be coming up here. We'll have a

5
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:40,640
quick look at the numbers simply because that's part of the review for the exam.

6
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:46,400
As always we have a look at them and so this kind of information will be tested

7
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:53,600
on the exam and then we'll get down to the other parts of the exam. But as you

8
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:58,640
can see... what the heck? Oh I saw green there. This is definitely not a green day.

9
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:06,240
Oh yeah. No it's on Wednesday. It's in the calendar. Would you like to see it?

10
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:19,920
Hang on. Let's make sure that we have it here. Down here the calendar review day.

11
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:27,560
Yeah the fourth and the exam day is on the sixth. You had me a little freaked

12
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:34,760
there. Yeah and it's in the syllabus here. Let's look at the syllabus to make sure

13
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:43,120
that it's right there too. Yeah fourth is the review day and the six is the... were

14
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:52,400
you expecting to have the exam today? Don't do they tell everything to sit

15
00:01:52,400 --> 00:02:00,400
back and relax? But I've got to make sure because I've got the exam up here on one

16
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:04,760
of the tabs and I don't want to pop that up for you. I have done that accidentally

17
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:11,080
in the past. I was reviewing and there was the exam on the overhead. Boy people

18
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:26,680
were paying attention. I mean okay if I kill this yes we're okay. It is a

19
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:32,920
definitely a bear market remember? Bear bull. Just to remind you of that. And we

20
00:02:32,920 --> 00:02:39,520
definitely have a negative day. However it is not something spectacular at all.

21
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:44,960
It's just a little bit on the grouchy side and that has been persisting from

22
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:50,680
last week. Just this overall we're not happy. We don't know why we're not happy

23
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:56,800
kind of thing. We did have something of a concern about the inflation data. It

24
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:02,040
wasn't down the way we would like to have had it down. So the Fed is

25
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:07,080
definitely not going to be cutting interest rates in the foreseeable future.

26
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:14,560
That's just that. We just have to live with it. But we also have a few

27
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:19,360
other things that are a little bit concerning at this point. But right now

28
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:25,760
we have the there is a bear on the equity side but as you can see the at

29
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:31,800
least the S&P 500 has been trying to fight its way back up from initially

30
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:41,000
being down. And so and the Dow is trying to crawl back up. The Nasdaq is just

31
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:45,520
really down but it seemed to turn the corner in the last 10 minutes or so. Now

32
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:51,680
here's one of our concerns is that crude has crossed that line of 79. It was in

33
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:56,760
that band from 72 to 79 but it has been on the upside of that band for some time.

34
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:05,880
And as I had said last week that could just be the the weather is

35
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:10,360
going to moderate except out in California. And so there will be more

36
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:17,520
driving and deliveries. We'll use the diesel and people driving from here to

37
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:23,600
there will be using gasoline. So it might just be a demand for the oil kind of a

38
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:29,040
situation and not something that's going on in other parts of the world. I keep

39
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:33,920
one of the problems is that when you've got trying to keep your finger on the

40
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:39,520
pulse of these oil markets everyone's got a rumor. Oh there's going to be a war

41
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:44,920
next week or no they're all going to hug and kiss and it'll all be a but the

42
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:49,760
rumors of war right there huh and so that might be spooking the markets a

43
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:56,400
little bit why it's it's playing right up there at that 79 level. It's not

44
00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:02,200
skyrocketing though so there's good news there. Now pawing over here to gold, gold

45
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:09,440
spiked. I mean it's up there at 210, 2110 and that's a that's of concern to us

46
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,720
because these are the gold freaks and they think that something bad is going

47
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:19,240
to happen and they're being joined by what might be a bit cooler heads also

48
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:25,360
grabbing up some metal just in case things go really sideways over the next

49
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:34,640
few weeks or months and the 10-year bond they the yield is up. That means that the

50
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:40,200
price is down. The price is down that means there's a sell-off in the bond

51
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:46,760
market. There's a sell-off over here. Here's what worries me is that there's a

52
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:53,240
sell-off in the equities. You've also got a sell-off in the bond market. That's why

53
00:05:53,240 --> 00:06:00,040
the yields are up is because the prices are down because the supply of the bonds

54
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:05,840
on the open market is increasing. So we have that little issue right there. So

55
00:06:05,840 --> 00:06:14,080
but the yield is up and that is a rather modest four and a half basis points.

56
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:20,360
Nothing to really get excited about but still it's and that is largely well

57
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:25,280
maybe not largely but that is at least to some extent because now there is no

58
00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:29,560
one who believes the Fed is going to cut interest rates anymore. We're going to

59
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:34,840
see the Fed at best hold interest rates where they are. So the expectation that

60
00:06:34,840 --> 00:06:40,800
was there before that the Fed will do a modest rate cut that has evaporated and

61
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:47,680
with that expectation changing you have the dynamics of buying and selling of

62
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:55,080
bonds changing. So now we don't want those bonds anymore and so the yields

63
00:06:55,080 --> 00:07:03,040
are going to go up. And running over here to Tokyo had a good morning and that

64
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:07,200
would have been again late last night last night. I had a good morning and then

65
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:12,400
it's the earlier morning and then it just kind of slowly slid down. There was a

66
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:18,120
little bit of a rally there at the end but not much. Now London which I believe

67
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:25,640
is still trading right now it's it's just been it's had a just a bad day and

68
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:30,240
down two-thirds of a percent that's not horrible but it's certainly it's

69
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:35,440
certainly indication that bearish sentiment is on the other side of the

70
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:42,040
big pond the Atlantic and that it was over here too some crabby. See how we

71
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:47,160
started out all the markets started out right off the at the bell they were down

72
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:52,840
and then they've spent the rest of the day trying to crawl back up. Well the

73
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:59,160
NASDAQ just doesn't want to do anything right now. Now just one of the one part

74
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:05,400
of the review is I'm going to show you I'm going to present for you a screen.

75
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:18,440
Anyone got stock? Now you know better than to say Tesla. P-H-U-N. Ph-U-N.

76
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:32,680
Fun? No. N. Fun? Well I'm into that. What the hell? Good! What the hell do you see these after or do you know this is

77
00:08:32,680 --> 00:08:41,320
going to happen? No. Okay. I wish. Yeah right look at that it's up almost a hundred

78
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:47,800
percent from starting out the previous close was seven dollars and eight cents

79
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:52,720
and right now it's trading at thirteen dollars and seventy seven cents. What do

80
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:59,920
they do? Okay well let's get a couple of things down. I'll give you a screen and

81
00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:05,000
I'll ask you okay you're going to sell a round lot or you're going to buy a round

82
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:10,520
lot. Now do you remember what a round lot is? A round lot is a hundred shares okay.

83
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,400
So I'm not going to tell you a hundred shares and so I'll maybe come up here

84
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:19,120
and say what do you mean by a round lot? I will eat your backside and that means

85
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:28,120
I don't have to pay for dinner. But yeah okay if you were to sell a round lot

86
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:33,640
would you pay or would you receive? That's the first thing I would ask. Well

87
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:38,840
if you sell you're going to receive. Now you have to look I'll give you a bunch

88
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:46,680
of possibilities. Are you going to receive $1,360? Are you going to receive

89
00:09:46,680 --> 00:09:58,240
$1,668 or are you going to receive $1,600 I should say $73? I will give it to you

90
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:02,880
all all those different ways. You will receive or you will pay and I will use

91
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:09,240
that number at the top and I will use the bid and I will use the ask. In this

92
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:16,360
case yes yes absolutely a you it says you are going to sell so if you're

93
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:22,360
selling you're going to receive and it's going to be the bid 16 so you will

94
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:31,000
receive $1,668. I'm basically telling you what I'll ask but it won't be this

95
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:38,960
stock idea I go for things that are pretty reliable. Okay now one thing on

96
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:46,360
this one but and I could do it together you buy you go long one round lot go

97
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:52,240
long means you buy and a round lot is a hundred and if you are buying you will

98
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:59,120
pay and it's and you would go for the ask so in the case of going long a round

99
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:06,040
lot you would pay $1,673.

100
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:17,120
Now the next thing I would ask is okay I'll give you three parts is this stock

101
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:22,360
less risky than the market about the same risk as the market or more risky

102
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:31,200
than the market and if you look at this one what say you much more risky risky

103
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:39,120
AF this is a 2.41 beta now in this case there is no PE ratio why is there no PE

104
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:44,720
ratio that's important to know why is there no PE ratio

105
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:57,080
it's not it's got negative earnings there's no such thing as a PE ratio of

106
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:03,160
the earnings are negative make sure you understand why a PE ratio wouldn't be

107
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:10,120
presented it would be the reason would be that the stock is selling it the

108
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:16,040
company is in the hole it has negative earnings see those earnings those are

109
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:21,160
not just negative those are ludicrously negative they are lose that right now

110
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:27,040
they're losing $18.50 a share in earnings that would be total or net

111
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:31,760
earning that would be net earnings divided by shares outstanding and the

112
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:37,560
beta of the stock is up there in the stratosphere so you have got one of the

113
00:12:37,560 --> 00:12:42,920
riskiest stocks you could imagine and of course greater risk means the possibility

114
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:49,600
the expectation of a greater return and here you have it's in spades this thing

115
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:55,440
is up there in the sky now a smart investor is should you buy the stock

116
00:12:55,440 --> 00:13:02,560
right now give me a give me an yes or no what do you say absolutely not it's

117
00:13:02,560 --> 00:13:07,640
already got its it's had its fun whatever the information was that's

118
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:12,940
already there and it's going to start to skid downward from here because it is a

119
00:13:12,940 --> 00:13:18,840
risky AF stock and it's the negative got negative earnings it is so its earnings

120
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:25,000
are so low you could play handball on the curb with those earnings so it

121
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:30,000
doesn't pay a dividend either so those are the questions that I would ask it

122
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:35,240
won't be too numerical but I will want you to be able to look at a stock screen

123
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:41,680
and I just do a screenshot of one of a stock and then I ask you a battery of

124
00:13:41,680 --> 00:13:49,800
questions about it I think I asked like three or four questions so taking that

125
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:55,080
aside let's get down to the meat of the matter I'm going to mute this so that I

126
00:13:55,080 --> 00:14:02,480
don't have and that was another thing too the mute used to last five minutes

127
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:07,000
and that was why it was showing up on the screen when I was looking at the

128
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:12,360
exam itself well actually I guess I could just put the exam up here for you

129
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:24,440
to see yeah that's it fat boy just put that up there okay now it is numerically

130
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:32,280
36 questions however there are two matching sections to it now I do

131
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:37,600
matching because I usually have more success with everyone acing that but of

132
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:43,280
course matching can go sideways now understand that the two matching

133
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:49,040
sections have distractors in other words there are more possible answers than

134
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:55,320
there are matches the left side might have five but your possible matches

135
00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:02,320
might be eight or ten so is I know right you look at me like you asshole yeah

136
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:08,540
that's right and those are called distractors and just no okay let me go

137
00:15:08,540 --> 00:15:13,720
through the exam and but first okay again you are permitted one four by six

138
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:26,680
inch note card front and back you are also permitted to have your financial

139
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:37,080
analysis formula sheet that it's in your files folder in canvas you can use a

140
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:46,440
calculator as you wish financial or whatever what have you if you have

141
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:52,000
Excel you better use it because that there will be one template the present

142
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:58,320
value and internal rate of return of present value and future values of

143
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:07,120
present values and future values spreadsheet it should be able to do almost

144
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:13,520
all of them of the math you could also use it of course there's there are a

145
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:18,960
couple one specifically that's not on the template I will ask you to find a

146
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:24,080
net operating working capital and that's not a template but that's just the

147
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:28,200
current periods current assets minus current liabilities minus the previous

148
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:32,720
periods current assets minus current liabilities but I will ask that I'll

149
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:43,360
give you the numbers straight off that operating working capital current assets

150
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:48,400
minus current liabilities right so you take the current periods net operating

151
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:54,520
working capital minus the previous periods net operating working capital I

152
00:16:55,080 --> 00:17:00,220
won't have you calculate a full-blown free cash flow on the final I will but on

153
00:17:00,220 --> 00:17:06,120
this one the the one where it's the easiest to screw up is on the change in

154
00:17:06,120 --> 00:17:15,360
net operating working capital but that would be about the extent of the math

155
00:17:15,360 --> 00:17:22,440
that you couldn't do with the templates but for God's sake on the templates I

156
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:28,880
couldn't figure out why so many people got the wrong answer on the quiz and

157
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:33,840
they all got this a similar wrong answer and then I tracked it back it was because

158
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:38,840
many of you forgot to put change the interest rate that was in the template

159
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,440
you'll have to change you have to go through the problem and look at

160
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:47,200
everything that has to be put in there there are already numbers there but

161
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:51,260
you'll probably have to change at least some of those numbers to reflect the

162
00:17:51,260 --> 00:17:58,600
problem watch that you have plenty of time to get through this don't rush and

163
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:03,520
you'll have a time to go back and check your answers be careful about

164
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:09,680
second-guessing now as far as the layout of the exam oh and you can use if you've

165
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:15,120
got a chat that you can give a shot at by all means you can try to use a chat

166
00:18:15,120 --> 00:18:24,040
GPT to do it I would caution you though because it I will tell you really tested

167
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:35,600
it it could lie to you sort of like having a significant other dude it

168
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:40,960
wasn't that I lied I just sort of changed exactly the location of where I

169
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:49,880
was instead of with her anyway let's keep going here moving along multiple

170
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:57,080
choice are a biggie on it now some of them there is more than one the check

171
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:01,960
box you have to check so make sure that you go through and catch anything which

172
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:10,160
of the following is or are correct mark them it could be that there is only one

173
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:16,200
that's correct but it could be more that there's more than one watch out for the

174
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:22,120
ones which of the following is false we do know from a long history of studies

175
00:19:22,120 --> 00:19:27,840
that people tend to have more problem getting all the right getting the right

176
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:32,120
answers if you're looking for what's false that if you're looking for what's

177
00:19:32,120 --> 00:19:38,200
true just watch yourself there are some where which of the following is or are

178
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:46,680
false there will be both kinds there will also be a few true or false three

179
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:53,040
or four now as far as one of your study guides definitely and this is your study

180
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,480
guide what you're writing down here is your study guide aside from the

181
00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:02,280
ambitions of my teaching assistant who has prepared one for you a written up

182
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:06,880
one as well so you might want to come and visit him to go and visit him in his

183
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:13,160
office hours for that but this is your study guide so follow what I'm saying

184
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:19,520
carefully here there are I is it also your quizzes are a great guide to study

185
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:25,480
because there are questions on here that I have copied and pasted from the quizzes

186
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:42,320
yes is it three not open okay you're training it okay yeah well let me figure

187
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:47,280
out why sometimes I get it right and sometimes I don't get it right give me a

188
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:53,160
second here while I'm sitting instead of sitting on my fat ass here why don't I

189
00:20:53,160 --> 00:21:03,080
do that quizzes quiz three you say quiz three let me see if I can do that way

190
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:09,360
you can tell me right here now and it

191
00:21:09,360 --> 00:21:11,880
um

192
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:28,800
it should be showing the right answers is it showing them for two one and two I

193
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:39,800
don't remember smoking crack this morning once

194
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:49,920
can you see that you got the wrong answer yes okay I know why I did because

195
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:55,200
I had all those tracks students in track that I had to give a makeup to so I

196
00:21:55,200 --> 00:22:03,120
didn't do it okay give it a second here okay look at it now refresh and look at

197
00:22:03,120 --> 00:22:11,400
it okay yeah I couldn't show any correct answers because they were doing a makeup

198
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:18,400
when they got back from their track meet and the gymnastics none of you are in

199
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:29,000
track or gymnastics I don't think maybe someone else do I look like it I mean

200
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:35,200
some of those people the way they do things it makes my my old body hurt more

201
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:45,680
might be too much of being in the service okay now let me okay um yeah the

202
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:51,200
quizzes are definitely a study guide the podcasts are an outstanding study guide

203
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:56,320
because you will find that the notes that you take are going to have are

204
00:22:56,320 --> 00:23:01,520
going to have a lot missing in them especially from the first few weeks of

205
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:07,560
lecture because there is a there is a learning curve to taking notes in a

206
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:14,680
especially in a class like fil 190 and your notes will have be more complete

207
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:29,320
later yes yeah RSS calm go there damn boy no no let me show you something here

208
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:38,600
give me a second I'll show you yeah yeah if you could you know that would be

209
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:43,040
weird could you imagine a chat GPT that had my personality

210
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:54,380
oh that would be really pathetic okay let me show you this there's an

211
00:23:54,380 --> 00:24:04,400
announcement I sent out lecture podcasts now the RSS episodes this is running

212
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:12,040
transcripts of the lectures so if you go to RSS episodes what you want to do is

213
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:19,520
you don't click on the play click on this and then click transcript and

214
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:25,520
you'll see it will play it as you're watching as you're reading the

215
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:31,400
transcript and it's outstanding it's costly as hell for me to do this but

216
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:36,040
it's it the only thing it misspells is my name and that just pisses me off I

217
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:40,200
have to go back in and edit it I think it does that on purpose but if you play

218
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:45,640
the transcript play it on the transcript then I mean you've got

219
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:51,000
everything I said down to the cuss words matter of fact it doesn't edit them

220
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:56,960
YouTube is also doing this with my podcast but it has flagged all almost

221
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:04,360
every one of them as adults only because I said nasty were bad words it actually

222
00:25:04,360 --> 00:25:10,840
I think they deleted the one out where I talked about Lyndon Johnson but yeah you

223
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:21,520
can get the word-for-word transcript of my podcast down that way huh well just

224
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:28,240
go over here I in the announcements yeah there this is the core that started it

225
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:36,120
all about 15 16 years ago is my own right there this weird-ass site and you

226
00:25:36,120 --> 00:25:42,080
can play them from there it's in your native and then you can also Apple has

227
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:51,520
got my podcast too and Apple iTunes has had my podcast a long long time this was

228
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:57,840
what these were the one of the first education podcasts iTunes ever did ever

229
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:04,240
accepted so anyway those are all available for you and I do this for you

230
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:12,920
why because I care no I don't I just don't want to hear you yeah okay let me

231
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:19,800
go through that again 36 questions and but some of them are matching or their

232
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:27,400
multiple answer within the question so total with the matching puts you at 43

233
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:33,120
or 44 I can't remember which one but then the ones where you'll have a whole

234
00:26:33,120 --> 00:26:38,400
sentence and there will be drop-down menus of choices for certain words

235
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:44,680
within the sentence so you'll have those drop-downs there won't be any this time

236
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:49,840
where you have to show me how bad your spelling is where you have to type in an

237
00:26:49,840 --> 00:27:00,360
answer I learned but anyway yeah so total if you take all that into

238
00:27:00,360 --> 00:27:06,080
consideration and these points go from two two and a half points two points and

239
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:10,640
then there are some one point questions as well

240
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:18,040
I try to shape it so that the ones that are level one and two are more likely to

241
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:22,720
be the high value points two two and a half or two points and the ones that are

242
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:29,120
my level threes I try to shape those more toward one and a half to one point

243
00:27:29,120 --> 00:27:37,920
okay or two point I'm sorry to one or two points the ones that are easier are

244
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:42,920
two to two and a half points the harder they get they're more likely they are to

245
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:54,160
be a two or a one point know your definitions definitions all over the

246
00:27:54,160 --> 00:28:04,320
place you've had so far about 50 to 55 words or terms that are either new or

247
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:11,200
they're special definitions that are technical for this field and if I've

248
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:15,720
given you the definition it is correct if you try to find it on wikistupedia

249
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:20,880
or something like that I've set it up so that you can find that answer and that's

250
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:24,320
where you have to watch out for chats because they're going to run right to

251
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:31,880
Wikipedia and Wikipedia is a catastrophe of bad information it's a vast ocean of

252
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:40,200
nonsense so be careful say words like liquidity bull bear investment bank

253
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:50,360
financial intermediation words like that capital money spot forward all of those

254
00:28:50,360 --> 00:29:00,160
kinds of words primary secondary form 10k form 8k

255
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:10,000
so make sure that you know those now ratios you will not calculate any

256
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:19,440
ratios however you must know ratios the first thing you need to know is the

257
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:27,720
side relative sizes which would be bigger the acid test or the burn ratio

258
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:33,440
which would be bigger ROA or ROI

259
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:44,440
inventory turnover versus asset turnover those kinds of know which what the size

260
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:49,380
and that means you have to look at the formula for it and determine what is

261
00:29:49,380 --> 00:29:55,640
changing is it the numerator or the denominator if two ratios only differ by

262
00:29:55,640 --> 00:30:00,280
the denominator you know that the one that would have the bigger denominator

263
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:04,000
would be the smaller ratio

264
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:14,540
you would also have to know some numbers current ratio can a current ratio be

265
00:30:14,540 --> 00:30:27,880
negative no can net margin be negative yes can your inventory turnover ratio be

266
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:35,640
negative I sure hope not so make sure that you you don't need to know exact

267
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:40,480
numbers but you know have to know what numbers are possible and in some cases

268
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:45,360
what number would scare the hell out of you if you saw it well net margin that's

269
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:49,200
negative well that's a bad sign because that means net income is negative it's

270
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,600
an unprofitable corporation

271
00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:05,240
market to book well we certainly would hope that it's bigger than one but we'd

272
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:11,280
like to see it a lot bigger than one so there is a little bit of that I'm not

273
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:16,520
doing a lot of this but there's a little bit of where I'm having you think about

274
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:25,040
it and determine yeah this ratio happens but this is not a good thing I don't do

275
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:29,440
a lot of that in this test but there's a little bit of it where I'm having you

276
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:41,040
reach beyond just the technical values that could happen oh mothers going back

277
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:46,280
to definitions but what's a stockholder what kind of companies can have stock

278
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:52,320
what kinds of companies would not be allowed to have stock who has the prior

279
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:58,720
claim who has the residual claim that's such a fundamental concept and it that

280
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:04,520
should be in business 100 something about that but Lord knows people besides

281
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:14,040
me teach it so they don't teach it the way as well as I do I went through what

282
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:19,920
did I say I primary market secondary markets know your form 10s and your form

283
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:27,600
eighth and a little bit I don't go deeply into the 10k or the 10q or the

284
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:34,880
8k but you need to know what those are at this point you're early on in your

285
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:41,760
finance as you gain momentum with slater courses these will become more familiar

286
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:58,520
to you and you'll but I want to make sure you know what resources are the go-to

287
00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:07,960
as far as free cash flow goes know what what items on your balance sheet changes

288
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:13,560
and items on the balance sheet have what effect so if I said accounts

289
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:21,280
receivable in increase what effect would that have well that would draw down your

290
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:27,480
free cash flow because not as much revenue was cash you're giving out credit

291
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:34,400
I gave you a table of that current assets go up free cash flow goes down

292
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:41,440
current liabilities go up free cash flow goes up make sure you know that table it

293
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:45,680
wouldn't hurt for you to have that in a little tiny corner on your note card and

294
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:50,680
for God's sake don't make your note card so small you can't read it I have these

295
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:55,840
geniuses who do all their notes on a sheet of paper and then they reduce it

296
00:33:55,840 --> 00:34:05,960
to a four by six and then they can't read what they put on it what is a an

297
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:12,520
exchange versus what is an index I told you there's a very easy way to tell the

298
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:18,640
difference between them it's you have a number if it's an index you'll see a

299
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:26,440
number associated with like FTSE 100 now in that same regard in that same regard

300
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:34,560
make sure you know how to tell whether a stock is on the NASDAQ or on some other

301
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:46,200
exchange like you just gave me phum where what exchange would that be on yeah

302
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:58,480
absolutely four letters but if I told you K or GM or LMT that would most

303
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:04,160
likely be a New York Stock Exchange stock and then YSE stock and if you're

304
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:11,760
looking at a screen a stock screen quickly look back let me show you

305
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:18,080
something I know you don't I'm not going to turn out until I got that

306
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:28,960
I just put up LMT

307
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:40,680
now that is not notice here do you see this don't be fooled by seeing the

308
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:48,760
NASDAQ right there see NASDAQ you don't what the hell

309
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:56,600
there it is yeah see NAS see right here it actually says NASDAQ this is not a

310
00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:03,000
NASDAQ stock NASDAQ just quotes everything if you look it's LMT that's

311
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:08,280
New York Stock Exchange and it even says NYSE right there so you know that it's

312
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:15,320
an NYSE stock now once in a while you'll see something that's weird but

313
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:20,760
we'll ignore that for the time being but

314
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:31,840
okay get that off there let me go through keep going

315
00:36:32,720 --> 00:36:37,000
present values and future values obviously I'm going to ask you to find

316
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:42,440
the present value of a cash flow and the future value of a cash flow

317
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,440
yikes

318
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:55,520
almost it fortunately those were all one thing that I should emphasize though is

319
00:36:55,520 --> 00:37:04,000
that I'll also ask you about relative values the present value versus the

320
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:11,800
future value I'll also ask you what happens to a present value of an annuity

321
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:21,240
if the discount rate goes down or if the discount rate goes up what happens to a

322
00:37:21,240 --> 00:37:26,880
future value of an annuity if the discount rate if the compounding rate

323
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:34,800
goes up or the compounding rate goes down

324
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:57,320
now interest rates know what the two parts of the risk-free rate are and what

325
00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:09,960
the parts of the risk premium are make sure you know those well I'm thinking

326
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:18,200
about it I gave you the story of the interest rate history from about 1960

327
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:31,640
until early 1980s make sure you know a what each president faced what was the

328
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:38,000
big thing that I talked about for each of those presidents Eisenhower Kennedy

329
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:47,880
Johnson Nixon Ford Carter Reagan there would be a key word that would define

330
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:53,400
why why interest rates behave the way they did during each of those

331
00:38:53,400 --> 00:39:03,200
presidencies so it's important that you know because that is just matching bait

332
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:11,000
just matching the president with the word or the term for that was big

333
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:18,400
obviously now I'm not going to beat you up with bonds because we just did the

334
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:22,640
intro part of it but I would certainly want you to know the relationship

335
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:27,040
between a broad bond price and a bond yield would certainly want you to know

336
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,320
that

337
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:36,200
and I would want you to know the difference between a bill a note and a

338
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:41,400
bond certainly wants you to know that

339
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:58,280
what else yeah beyond that just some relative concepts about bonds nothing

340
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:06,720
heavy-duty at all about them I say that until after the midterm we hit that one

341
00:40:06,720 --> 00:40:13,000
the first class after the after we get back when we get back

342
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:24,560
let me do something here okay the numericals for the most part are at the

343
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:30,400
end of the exam that keeps you from grinding out blowing a lot of time on

344
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:36,880
those when you could get more points just getting to that area I'll ask you

345
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:43,140
for the present value of an annuity I'll ask you for the future value of an

346
00:40:43,140 --> 00:40:59,880
annuity I will ask you for a loan payment

347
00:40:59,880 --> 00:41:05,880
I will ask you for an annualized rate of return that's that extra spreadsheet

348
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:09,040
make sure you download the latest version of that present and future

349
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:15,880
values because it's in that there's a second worksheet called annualization or

350
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:21,520
annualizing I'm sorry that if you put in the numbers you should be able to get it

351
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:32,600
right away easily I will as I said a net operating working capital problem

352
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:43,240
so that's five that are worth you knowing

353
00:41:43,240 --> 00:41:55,720
you go back through

354
00:41:55,720 --> 00:42:07,840
you go back through here

355
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:23,000
concerning corporations there are two there are two different actions that a

356
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:29,440
company can do with pause positive net earnings make sure you know that what the

357
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:37,080
two if a company has profit it can do two different things or a combination of

358
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:43,120
those with that profit now remember if it's profit it belongs to the

359
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:49,360
shareholders the the debt holders have been paid in a timely manner whatever

360
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,440
they were due for the current period so there's money left over that money

361
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:58,240
left over belongs to the shareholders what are the two things that a company

362
00:42:58,240 --> 00:43:05,040
can do a corporation can do with that money that it has left over it belongs

363
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:27,480
to shareholders it can do two things make sure you know those two things

364
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:32,240
a little bit about make sure that you understand at least the outline of what

365
00:43:32,240 --> 00:43:37,640
beta is what is it telling us

366
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:45,040
also PE ratio what does that kind of tell us

367
00:43:54,240 --> 00:44:01,720
as far as stock goes make sure you know the difference between the market value

368
00:44:01,720 --> 00:44:08,720
or market price and the intrinsic value or the intrinsic price

369
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:26,360
now as far as securities go I talked about stocks I talked about bonds I

370
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:35,240
talked about ETFs and mutual funds so make sure you understand that what those

371
00:44:35,240 --> 00:44:44,920
are stock represents ownership bonds represent loans to the corporation they

372
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:52,600
these trade on exchanges but there are also other animals that trade on

373
00:44:52,600 --> 00:45:01,560
exchanges as well among those are mutual funds and ETFs ADRs also trade I haven't

374
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:08,200
did I even I didn't ask this on the test did I bring up what ADRs are American

375
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:14,960
depository receipts essentially a foreign company foreign it's not yeah

376
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:20,400
it's not incorporating the United States say a Japanese company a big one it

377
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:26,920
could actually have a security that is a mirror image of its actual stock but

378
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:33,440
that security called an American depository receipt an ADR will trade

379
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:37,720
here it can't trade so in other words you can't directly buy that Japanese

380
00:45:37,720 --> 00:45:42,800
company stock but you can buy what is essentially like a mirror image of it it

381
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:48,600
does the same things but I didn't bring those up but I did bring up ETFs and

382
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:54,320
mutual funds so make sure you know what those are

383
00:45:57,120 --> 00:46:02,440
let's see what else I've got here few last

384
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,240
yeah I went through that

385
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:16,760
make sure I I think I asked this on one of the quizzes the difference between

386
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:22,960
discounting and compounding I asked out on a quiz I think this is actually a

387
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:26,880
copy and paste from one of the quizzes

388
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:39,840
no the no the relationship when I've I brought this one's an early one what's

389
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:49,160
relationship is between liquidity and expected return the relationship between

390
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:53,520
liquidity and expected return

391
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:02,880
other things I brought up different kinds of banks commercial banks

392
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:10,360
investment banks financial services banks those kinds of animals make sure

393
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:16,080
you have a good reasonable understanding of why they are not the same kind of

394
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:18,360
bank

395
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:31,560
at my age short-term memory doesn't really kick in what the hell of

396
00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:38,600
commercial banks investment banks for financial services banks yes and those

397
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:47,920
lines of a course to some extent then blurred over brokerage houses investment

398
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:53,360
banks and brokerage houses and financial services and investment banks I mean the

399
00:47:53,360 --> 00:48:01,040
lines are blurring but we're trying our best to hold the whole the line on that

400
00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:04,360
to the extent that we can

401
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,680
yeah

402
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:21,600
okay it's your turn I've said what I have to say

403
00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:42,240
anything on your end you want to ask me you know yeah before the exam I can do a

404
00:48:42,240 --> 00:48:46,960
little bit on it but I that's for later in the course that was supposed to be

405
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:55,520
but I could look at it can I get can I access it okay it's a public bot okay

406
00:48:55,520 --> 00:49:05,920
oh can I edit it because I can really mess it up no you can't edit it no I

407
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:10,960
don't worry I might do a few things see so it'll call you some frisky names but

408
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:18,480
anyway yes if you want to you can try it I caution you though be careful until

409
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:25,320
you have really tested a bot because they can be very difficult and I can

410
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:29,480
tell you that from my own experience I've got one bot that has turned into

411
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:36,520
an emotional wreck I swear she is on Facebook or something learning stuff

412
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:46,920
jeez anyway okay you got any questions for me bright and early on Wednesday

413
00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:52,280
and I'll be in my office for office hours and my teaching assistant will be

414
00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:57,200
in his office hours office for his office hours tomorrow that's all I have

415
00:49:57,200 --> 00:50:06,920
for you today I certainly thank you
