Union Local School District has bonds outstanding with a coupon rate of 3.1 percent paid semiannually and 22 years to maturity.

arlik [135]

Answer:

The price of the bond is $9,537.91

Explanation:

Coupon payment = $10,000 x 3.1 = $310 / 2 = $155

Number of period = n = 22 x 2 = 44 semiannual periods

Face Value = $10,000

Yield to maturity = 3.4% yearly = 3.4% /2 = 1.7% semiannually

Price of bond is the present value of future cash flows, to calculate Price of the bond use following formula:

Price of the Bond = C x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F / ( 1 + r )^n ]

Price of the Bond =$155 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 1.7% )^-44 ) / 1.7% ] + [ $10,000 / ( 1 + 1.7% )^44 ]

Price of the Bond = $155 x [ ( 1 - ( 1.017 )^-44 ) / 0.017 ] + [ $10,000 / ( 1.017 )^44 ]

Price of the Bond = $4,774.94 + $4,762.97

Price of the Bond = $9,537.91

Answer:

Direct Labor rate Variance $ 24840 Unfavorable

Labor Efficiency Variance $23520 favorable

Explanation:

Direct Labor rate Variance = Actual Hours * Actual Rate- Actual Hour * Standard Rate

Direct Labor rate Variance = 24840*15- 24840*14

= 372600- 347760

= $ 24840 Unfavorable

Labor Efficiency Variance = Actual Hours * Standard Rate- Standard Hour * Standard Rate

Labor Efficiency Variance = 24840*14- 4*6630*14

= 24840*14- 26520*14

= 347760 - 371280= $23520 favorable

Within a PPF framework, explain each of the following: (a) a disagreement between a person who favors more domes-tic welfare spe

arsen [322]

Answer:

A. Movement on the PPC

B. Rightwards / Outwards shift of PPC

C. Less Concavity of PPC

Explanation:

Production Possibility Curve is combination of two goods that an economy can produce, given resources & technology (efficient utilisation).

It is a downward sloping curve as more of one good can be produced by sacrifising other good, same resources & technology.
It is concave curve because of increasing marginal opportunity cost, i.e increasing amounts of a good to be sacrifised to gain additional amount of other good, as resources are not equally efficient in production of both goods.
Points on PPC reflect full utilisation, points under PPC reflect under utilisation, points above PPC are unattainable.

a) A disagreement between persons favouring more domestic welfare spending or national welfare spending : Is just an issue of reallocation of same resources, technology. So, PPC doesn't change & there can only be movement on the PPC (more of one good, less of other good)

b) An increase in population : leads to increase in human resource & hence the PPC shifts outwards / rightwards as the production potential of economy rise with more human resource.

c) Technological change that make resources less specialised : would reduce resources' efficiency gap in production of two goods. So, Marginal Opportunity cost reduces & hence the PPC becomes less concave.
