A 10-year maturity zero-coupon bond selling at a yield to maturity of 7.25% (effective annual yield) has convexity of 157.5 and

modified duration of 9.06 years. A 30-year maturity 7.5% coupon bond making annual coupon payments also selling at a yield to maturity of 7.25% has nearly identical duration—9.04 years—but considerably higher convexity of 251.6.

Explanation:

Zero coupon

Bond Price =∑ [(Annual Coupon)/(1 + YTM)^k]     +   Par value/(1 + YTM)^N

                  k=1

                 K =10

Bond Price =∑ [(0*1000/100)/(1 + 7.25/100)^k]     +   1000/(1 + 7.25/100)^10

                  k=1

Bond Price = 496.62

On December 31, a $1,500,000 bond issue on which there is an unamortized discount of $70,100 is redeemed for $1,455,000.
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Bonds Payable A/c Dr. $1,500,000

Loss on Redemption of Bond A/c Dr. $25,100

             To Discount on Bonds Payable A/c $70,100

            To Cash A/c $1,455,000

(Being the redemption of the bond is recorded)

The loss on redemption of bond would be

= $1,455,000  + $70,100  - $1,500,000

= $25,100

Masters Corp. issues two bonds with 20-year maturities. Both bonds are callable at $1,050. The first bond is issued at a deep di
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Explanation:

a)

The YTM of the bond at par value is equals to its coupon rate, 8.75%. Other things being equal, this 4% coupon rate bond will be more eye-catching as the coupon rate is lower than the current market yields, and its price is far below the call price. So, if yields drop, capital gains on the bond will not be restricted by the call price.

b)

If an investor foresees that yields will fall considerably, the 4% bond proposes a better expected return.

c)

Implicit call protection is offered in the sense that any likely fall in yields would not be nearly enough to make the firm consider calling the bond. In this sense, the call feature is almost irrelevant

Horatio Alger is the product manager for Brand X, a consumer product with a retail price of $1.20. Retail margins are 35% while
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Contribution per unit of Bran X = 51 cents

Contribution margin: 51 / 69 = 73.91%

Explanation:

<em>Retail price: 1.20</em>

retail margin of 35% --> thus the cost of good is 1.20 x ( 1 - 0.35) = 0.78

At this price the wholesalers trade to grosery store and others

wholesales margin 11.5% --> the price at which Alger sales the product to wholesalers:

0.78 x (1- 0.115) =<em> 0.6903 producer selling price</em>

Now from this, Horatio has the following variable cost:

variable manufacturing cost:   0.08

shipping and other cost:          0.03

sales persons 10% commision 0.06903

Total variable cost: 0.17903

Contribution per product: .6903 - 0.17903 = 0.51127 = 51 cents
