Answer: $325,592
Explanation:
Selling price of bond = Present value of coupon payments + Present value of Par value
No. of periods = 5 * 2 = 10 semi annual periods
Coupon payments = 300,000 * 8% * 1/2 = $12,000
Periodic interest = 6% / 2 = 3% per period
Selling price = (12,000 * Present value of annuity factor, 10 periods, 3%) + (300,000 * Present value of single sum, 10 periods, 3%)
= (12,000 * 8.5302) + (300,000 * 0.7441)
= $325,592

Answer:
C) Wolfe can hold either Harris or the employer or both liable.
Explanation:
Since Harris was acting within the scope of his employment, then he and his employer are liable for the injuries that Wolfe suffered. Wolfe can decide to recover from either of them (generally the employer would be chosen) or from both parties, there is no legal limitation.
It doesn't matter who owns the vehicle, what matters is what was Harris doing at the time of the accident; he was performing tasks on behalf of his employer.
If Wolfe died, Harris could face criminal charges, but his employer still would be liable in a civil case.
Answer:
a) the fire and all the events that are related to it should decrease Roybus's stock by $5.50
b) The market is pretty quick to adjust to bad news, specially when they are single isolated events. There is a minimum chance that you might be able to make some money by selling your stocks to someone that hasn't heard about the fire and its negative consequences (not a regular trader or outside the market), but it would be extremely rare for it to happen. When such extraordinary events happen, it is common for stocks to be traded after market hours, so when the market opens the next day, the price will already be adjusted.
Explanation:
the total decrease in Roybus's market value = ($175,000,000 / 1.126) + ($61,000,000 / 1.126²) = $155,417,407 + $48,111,960 = $203,529,367
the decrease will negatively affect stock price by -$203,529,367 / 37,000,000 stocks = -$5.50 per stock
