The correct answer is D. 4

Explanation:

In research, a causal approach is a research method used when the variables the researcher is studying have a cause/effect relationship. This means one of the variables originates the other (cause) or it is the consequence (effect). For example, if the researcher is studying the effects of literacy rate in access to job opportunities, the approach is causal. In this context, to use to approach it is key that the researcher wants to show one variable or factor determines the other through a cause/effect relationship. Thus, this is used when "the researcher must show that one variable determines the values of another variable".

A store has been selling 100 DVD burners a week at $450 each. A market survey indicates that for each $30 rebate offered to buye

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

a rebate of 200 dollars will generate 500 sales

with a revenue of 125,000

Explanation:

We need to maximize the total revenue which is:

TR = Price x Quantity. First we define each of these:

P = (450 - 30X)

Q = (100 + 60X)

Being X the cash rebate

We now replace this into the TR formula:

TR = P x Q = (450 -30X) (100 + 60X)

TR = -1800x2 +27,000x -3,000x + 45,000

TR = -1800x2 +24,000x + 45,000

as this is a quadratic function: a: -1,800 b = 24,000 c = 45,000

the maximum revenue will be at the vertex: -b/2a

-24,000/2(-1,800) = 6.67

now we multiply by 30: 6.67 x30 = 200 dollars

which bring 60 x 6.67 = 400 new customers

250 x (100 +400) = 250 x 500 = 125,000

If the appropriate discount rate for this bond is 6%, what would you be willing to pay for ABC’s bond?

Juliette [100K]

Question:

Suppose there is a bond in ABC Company that that pays coupons of 8.5%, and suppose that these coupons are paid annually.

Suppose the face value of the ABC bond is $1000 and the maturity is 11 years.

If the appropriate discount rate for this bond is 6%, what would you be willing to pay for ABC’s bond?

Answer:

Price of bond = $ 1197.17

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV

The price of the bond can be worked out as follows:

Step 1

PV of interest payments

Annual Interest payment = 8.5%× 1000 = 85

Annual yield = 6%

Total period to maturity (in years) = 11

PV of interest =

85 × (1- (1+0.06)^(-11)/)/0.06 = 670.38

Step 2

PV of Redemption Value

= 1,000 × (1.06)^(-11) = 526.78

Step 3:

Price of bond

670.38 + 526.78= 1,197.17

Price of bond = $ 1197.17
