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

If a store adds 50 chairs to its current inventory, the total number of chairs will be the same as three-halves the current inve

max2010maxim [7]

To answer this item, we let x be the current number of chairs. After adding 50 chairs to the current inventory, the total number of chairs would then be equal to x + 50. The equation that would allow us to determine the value of x is written below.

x + 50 = (3/2)(x)

Simplifying the equation,
x + 50 = 3x/2
x - 3x/2 = -50
-x/2 = -50

Dividing both sides of the equation by -1/2, the value of x is equal to 100.

To increase the inventory by 40%, the equation would be,
y = x(1.4) = 1.4(100) = 140

<em>ANSWER: 140 chairs</em>

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The new portfolio beta is 1.31 rounded off to two decimal places.

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is a function of the sum of the weighted average betas of the individual stock's that form up the portfolio. The portfolio beta is calculated using the following formula,

Portfolio beta = wA * Beta of A + wB * Beta of B + ... + wN * Beta of N

Where,

w is the weightage of each stock in the portfolio

The beta of the portfolio when one stock with a beta of 1 is sold is,

The sum of individual stock betas for 19 stocks is = 20 * 1.31 - 1 * 1 = 25.2

The new portfolio beta when one stock with a beta of 0.97 is added is,

Portfolio beta = (25.2 + 0.97) / 20

Portfolio beta = 1.3085 rounded off to 1.31
