Answer:

YTM is 7.43%

Explanation:

The yield to maturity of a bond can be computed using the rate formula in excel,which is given below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

the nper is the number of coupon interest the bond would pay before it is redeemed at maturity starting from ,which is 15 years multiplied by 2=30

the pmt is the semiannual coupon payable by the bond,which is $1000*9.1%/2=$45.5

the pv is the price of the bond which is 115%*$1000=$1150

the fv is the face value of the bond at $1000

=rate(30,45.5,-1150,1000)=3.715%

The rate of 3.715% is a semi annual rate

annual rate 7.43%(3.715%*2)

Juniper Enterprises sells handmade clocks. Its variable cost per clock is $16.80, and each clock sells for $28. Calculate Junipe
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

For Juniper Enterprises to breakeven it must sell 607 units

Explanation:

To break-even means making sales where the proceeds from sales transactions equal the amount of total costs incurred,hence no gain no loss situation.

Break-even point in units=fixed cost/contribution per unit

fixed costs incurred is $8,400

contribution per unit=selling price per unit -variable cost per unit

selling price is $28

variable cost is $16.80

contribution per unit=$28-$16.80=$11.2 0

break-even in units =$6,800/$11.2 0=607 units

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

B. $6,448,519

Explanation:

The computation of the present value of this growing annuity is given below:

PVA = [Cash flow at year 1 ÷ (interest rate - growth rate)] × {1 - [(1 + growth rate) ÷ (1 + interest rate)^number of years}

= [$675,000 ÷ (0.18 - 0.13)] × [1 - (1.13 ÷ 1.18)^15]

= $6,448,519

Hence, the correct option is b.

Suppose for a given consumer the marginal utility (MU) of a pizza is 100 utils and the MU of a hamburger is 80 utils, and that t
NemiM [27]

Answer:

<u>is not</u> , <u>consume more of hamburgers</u>

Explanation:

A consumer is said to have achieved equilibrium when within his budget constraint, he purchases that combination of two goods which yield maximum satisfaction to him.

The equation for consumer equilibrium for two products is given by

\frac{MU_{x} }{P_{x} } = \frac{MU_{y} }{P_{y} }

In the given case, \frac{MU_{x} }{P_{x} } = \frac{100}{15} = \frac{20}{3} = 6.666

                            \frac{MU_{y} }{P_{y} } = \frac{80}{10}    = 8

wherein, x= pizza

              y= hamburger

As is evident, the marginal utility per dollar spent is greater in case of a hamburger, the consumer is not in a state of equilibrium.

Thus, he should consume more units of Hamburgers in order to maximize his utility.

How is insurance a trade-off between risk and cost?
Solnce55 [7]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Risk is involved in all types of investment the higher risk yields higher returns while lower risk yields lower returns. The trade off which the investor faces in making investment decisions is the risk return trade off.

In insurance the cost of risk includes the expected losses which are uncertain.  The trade off which is provided by insurance can be direct and indirect losses, internal risk reduction and residual uncertainty.  Insurance reduces the expected losses and eliminate the risk of loss by providing cover the cost of which depends on the nature of the risk.
