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)

Amount that will be provided a year = $50,000

Expected rate of return = 2.75%

Now,

The Present value of perpetuity is given as:

Present value of perpetuity = \frac{\textup{Annual return}}{\textup{Expected rate of return}}

liberstina [14]

Answer:

Value added to the gallery will be $3000

So option (C) will be correct answer

Explanation:

We have given that Caroline sells her original painting for $1500 to an art gallery.

And after that her painting was sold to an art lover at cost of $4500

We have to find the value added to the gallery

Value added to the gallery will be equal to difference of price sold to the art lover and cost at which painting is sold to art gallery

So value added to gallery = $4500 - $1500 = $3000

So option (C) will be correct answer

Smiley Industrial Goods has $1,000 face value bonds on the market with semiannual interest payments, 13.5 years to maturity, and
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Annual Coupon rate =  66.56990711 / 1000 = 0.06656990711 or 6.656990711% rounded off to 6.66%

Option B is the correct answer

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond today, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = C

Total periods (n) = 13.5 * 2 = 27

r or YTM = 0.064 * 6/12 = 0.032 or 3.2%

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

We will first calculate the value of semi coupon payment  made by the bond.

1023 = C * [( 1 - (1+0.032)^-27) / 0.032]  + 1000 / (1+0.032)^27

1023 = C * 17.8994796  +  427.2166529

1023 -  427.2166529  =  C * 17.8994796

595.7833471 / 17.8994796  =  C

C = 33.28495355 rounded off to 33.28

The annual coupon payment will be = 33.28495355 * 2 = 66.56990711 rounded off to 66.57

Annual Coupon rate =  66.56990711 / 1000 = 0.06656990711 or 6.656990711% rounded off to 6.66%
