Answer:
The correct option is B,7.70%
Explanation:
Annual coupon interest rate=coupon payment/face value
the coupon payment is the semi-annual interest payment*2
the semi-annual interest payment can be computed using the pmt formula in excel:
=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)
rate is the semi-annual yield to maturity which is 9.25%/2=4.625%
nper is the number of semi-annual interest payable by the bond which is 25*2=50
pv is the current price of the bond which is $850
fv is the face value of the bond at $1000
=pmt(4.625%,50,-850,1000)
pmt=$38.50
annual interest =$38.50*2=$77.00
Annual coupon interest=$77/$1000=7.7%
Answer:
B. $323,900.00
Explanation:
Nper = 300 periods
Rate = 8%/12
FV = 0
PMT = $2500
Amount to be Accumulated = PV(Rate,Nper,PMT,FV)
= PV(8%/12,300,2500,0)
= $323911.31
Therefore, The amount to be accumulated by the beginning of retirement to provide a $2,500 monthly check that will last for 25 years is $323,900

Answer:
295 units
Explanation:
The cost -volume-profits CVP concepts calculate the breakeven point by dividing fixed costs by the contribution margin per unit.
i.e., Breakeven point = Fixed cost/ contribution margin per unit.
For this company,
Fixed costs are $177,000
Contribution margin per unit
= selling price - variable costs.
=$1250 -$650
=$600
Breakeven point = $177,000 / $600
=295 units
Answer:
$15 trillions
Explanation:
The computation of the GDP is shown below:
GDP = Consumption + Investment + Government purchase + Net exports
where,
Consumption = $10 trillions
Investment = $2.5 trillions
Government purchase = $3 trillions
Net exports = Exports - imports
= $1 trillion - $1.5 trillion
= -$0.5 trillion
So, the GDP would be
= $10 trillions + $2.5 trillions + $3 trillions - $0.5 trillions
= $15 trillions
= 13.5 trillions
