The current value of a zero-coupon bond is $481.658412.

<h3>What is a zero-coupon bond?</h3>
  • A zero coupon bond (also known as a discount bond or deep discount bond) is one in which the face value is repaid at maturity.
  • That definition assumes that money has a positive time value.
  • It does not make periodic interest payments or has so-called coupons, hence the term zero coupon bond.
  • When the bond matures, the investor receives the par (or face) value.
  • Zero-coupon bonds include US Treasury bills, US savings bonds, long-term zero-coupon bonds, and any type of coupon bond that has had its coupons removed.
  • The terms zero coupon and deep discount bonds are used interchangeably.

To find the current value of a zero-coupon bond:

First, divide 11 percent by 100 to get 0.11.

  • 11%/100 = 0.11

Second, add 1 to 0.11 to get 1.11.

  • 1 + 0.11 = 1.11

Third, raise 1.11 to the seventh power to get 2.07616015.

  • 1.11⁷ = 2.07616015

Divide the face value of $1,000 by 1.2653 to find that the price to pay for the zero-coupon bond is $481.658412.

  • $1,000/1.2653 = $481.658412

Therefore, the current value of a zero-coupon bond is $481.658412.

Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

<u>Factor      Elasticity          Increase        Effective Increase </u>

                      A                        B      A × B

Capital      0.3                                 10%      3.00%

Labor        0.7                                  5%       3.50%

Increase due to Productivity                      5.00%

Total Increase in Output                             11.50%

(3% + 3.5% + 5%)  

Original Output                                              5000

Increase in Output (5000 × 11.5%)                 575

Increase Output (5000 + 575)                      5575

Fill in the missing numbers for the following income statement. (Input all amounts as positive values. Do not round intermediate
Strike441 [17]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Sales = 747300

Less: Costs = 582600

Less: Depreciation = 89300

EBIT = 75400

Less: Taxes at 22% = 22% × 75400 = 16588

Net income = EBIT - Taxes = 75400 - 16588 = 58812

a. Calculate the OCF.

OCF will be calculated as:

= Net income + Depreciation

= 58812 + 89300

= 148,112

b. What is the depreciation tax shield?

Depreciation tax shield will be:

= Depreciation × Tax rate

= 89300 × 22%

= 89300 × 0.22

= 19646

ohaa [14]

Answer:

Following are the organizational characteristics that explain the 100-year longevity of a company:

Explanation:

Selling Necessity Goods

Many of companies provide such goods and services which are essential for our everyday activities. Hence, people tend to buy from these companies as it is their routine to do so.

Laser-Sharp Customer Focus

These companies have always focused on the ever changing needs and demands of the customers and have worked accordingly.  Hence their focus on customer service is the key to their success.

Willingness to Chart New Territory

Since customer needs are always evolving, all organizations celebrating centennials have taken significant gambles in order to expand their offerings.  Steelcase, for instance, began as a furniture company but has recognized that the way people work has changed.  

Ongoing Community Relationships

Long-lasting organizations also make their mark by giving back to the communities in which they’ve thrived. The GSUSA estimates that its members complete more than 75 million hours of community service annually.  

These organizations have achieved so much because they have adapted their strategies to a changing world, and because they are always looking for ways to improve people’s lives.  It is these traits that position them well no matter what the future holds.
