melomori [17]

Answer:

The Breakeven point is 13,000 units.

Explanation:

The breakeven point can be found from the following equation:

Breakeven units = Fixed Costs / Contribution Per unit

Here, contribution per unit is $5 per unit which is the difference between the selling price and variable costs per unit.

The fixed cost here is $65000.

By putting the values in the above equation, we have:

Breakeven units = $65,000 / $5 per unit = 13,000 units

One year ago, Alpha Supply issued 15-year bonds at par. The bonds have a coupon rate of 6.5 percent, paid semiannually, and a fa
Masja [62]

Answer:

option (C) - 6.11%

Explanation:

Data provided :

Coupon rate one year ago = 6.5% = 0.065

Semiannual coupon rate = \frac{0.065}{2} = 0.0325

Face value = $1,000

Present market yield = 7.2% = 0.072

Semiannual Present market yield, r = \frac{0.072}{2} = 0.036

Now,

With semiannual coupon rate bond price one year ago, C

= 0.0325 × $1,000

= $32.5

Total period in 15 years = 15 year - 1 year = 14 year

or

n = 14 × 2 = 28 semiannual periods

Therefore,

The present value = C\times[\frac{(1-(1+r)^{-n})}{r}]+FV(1+r)^{-n}

= \$32.5\times[\frac{(1-(1+0.036)^{-28})}{0.036}]+\$1,000\times(1+0.036)^{-28}

or

= $32.5 × 17.4591 + $1,000 × 0.37147

= $567.42 + $371.47

= $938.89

Hence,

The percent change in bond price = \frac{\textup{Final price - Initial price}}{\textup{Initial price}}\times100\%

= \frac{\textup{938.89-1,000}}{\textup{1,000}}

= - 6.11%

therefore,

the correct answer is option (C) - 6.11%

Do you believe the statement "perception is reality"? Why or why not?
Allisa [31]
I wholeheartedly agree and think it’s practically self-evident.

Here’s an excellent example from history.

For 28 years, the Berlin Wall separated East Berlin from West Berlin and was the most heavily militarized border crossing in the Western hemisphere. In 1989, during a press conference with western media, Gunther Schabowski was handed a note explaining a change in policy governing border crossing. Several discussions took place about making a show of opening the border between East and West Germany, but nobody informed Schabowski.

At the end of the press conference, he appears to have remembered the note belatedly, and read it verbatim—which was not what was intended. When asked about when the border would open, he assumed it was immediate.

The reality of course was that East Germany had no intention of opening the border, and certainly not immediately.

Within hours, the border crossing was practically buried under thousands of East Germans eager to be reunited with their families and other loved ones after 28 years on the press conference, which had been broadcast live.

The East Germans believed what they were told: Schabowski said immediately, and they intended to go immediately.

Border guards kept calling for instructions, until finally, they relented.

Perception became reality, and the border between East and West Berlin opened, spelling the de facto end of the separation of Germany.
