The maturity risk premium on the 2-year Treasury security is C. 1.39%

Using this formula

rd = r* + IP + MRP

Where

rd represent Required rate of return on 2-year Treasury Security = 6 75%

r* represent real risk free return = 3.18%

IP represent Inflation Premium = 2.18%

MRP represent Maturity Risk Premium

Let plug in the formula

6.75% = 3.18% + 2.18% + MPR

6.75%=5.36%

MRP=6.75% -5.36%

MRP = 1.39%

Inconclusion the maturity risk premium on the 2-year Treasury security is C. 1.39%.

Cr. Common stock  $6,840,000

February 14

Dr. Cash                  $720,000  

Cr. Preferred stock $720,000

August 30

Dr. Cash                                                                   $2,635,000

Cr. Preferred stock                                                  $2,480,000

Cr. Paid in capital excess of par-Preferred stock $155,000

Explanation:

January 22

Common Stock = Numbers of shares issued x Issue price per share

Common Stock = 342,000 shares x $20

Common Stock = $6,840,000

February 14

Preferred stock = Numbers of preferred shares x Price per preferred share

Preferred stock = 9,000 shares x $80 per share

Preferred stock = $720,000

August 30

Cash Received = Numbers of shares x issuance price = 31,000 x $85 = $2,635,000

Cash Received = Numbers of shares x par value = 31,000 x $80 = $2,480,000

Paid in capital excess of par  = $2,635,000 - $2,480,000 = $155,000

NikAS [45]

Answer:

Selling price = $20.05

Explanation:

<em>The break even point </em><em>is the level of activity where the total cost of is exactly equal to the total revenue. At this point, the business makes no profit and no loss, because the total contribution is also equal to the total fixed costs.</em>

Contribution is the excess of sales revenue over variable cost

Total contribution = (S.p - VC per unit) × unit sold

So we can determine the selling price per unit by equating the total contribution to the the total fixed cost as follows:

Step 1

<em>Determine the total contribution</em>

= ( S.P - 6.80) × 900

Step 2

<em>Equate the total contribution to the total fixed cost and solve for S.P</em>

(S.P - 6.80) × 900 = 11,925.    Lets substitute S.P with x

(X-6.80) ×  900 = 11,925

900X -6,120 = 11,925

900X =  11,925 + 6,120

900X = 18045

X = 18,045/900

X = $20.05

Selling price = $20.05
