Answer:

Yes it is copyright infringement.

In order for someone to transfer any material (in this case music) digitally or online, it must be copied first. So when someone produces a digital sampling of copyrighted material, no matter if it only lasts a couple of seconds, it constitutes copyright infringement.

Vital Silence Corp. has just issued a 30-year callable, convertible bond with a coupon rate of 6.4 percent and annual coupon pay
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

a. $880.74

b. 13 years

Explanation:

a.  Conversion ratio = Current Value of bond / Conversion price  = 1,000 / 93.4 = 10.71

Conversion price of bond = 10.71 × 28.60  = $306.31

Coupon = Par value of bond * Coupon rate  = $1,000 * 6.4% = $64

Present value of straight debt is calculated below:

Present Value = $64 × [1-(1+7.4%)^-30 / 7.4%] + [$1,000 / (1+7.4%)^30]

= $64*11.93 + $117.46

= $763.28 + $117.46

= $880.74 .

Therefore, the minimum value of bond is $880.74

b. Conversion ratio = 10.71

Current stock price = $28.6

Suppose number of year the stock will take to reach above $1,140 is t.

Conversion value = Current stock price * Conversion ratio*(1+10.8%)^t

$1,140 = $28.6 * 10.71 * (1.108)^t

(1.108)^t = 3.7218

t = 12.8145 year.

t = 13 years

Explanation:

The customer sold the stock short at $74 per share. Later on, the customer sold a Sept 65, Put at $3 on this stock. If the short put is exercised, the customer is obligated to buy the stock at $65 per share. Since the customer received $3 in premiums when the put was sold, the net cost to the customer is $62 per share for the stock (this is the cost basis in the stock for tax purposes). The stock that has been purchased is delivered to cover the short sale, closing the transaction. The customer's gain is: $74 sale proceeds - $62 cost basis = 12 point gain.
