Answer:

1. the prices of existing bonds would rise

Explanation:

General Interest rates and price of a bond are inversely related. The market interest rate also reflects an investors expected rate of return also referred to as yield to maturity i.e YTM.

Mathematically, price of a bond is the present value of it's future stream of coupon payments as well as principal repayments discounted at investors expected rate of return i.e YTM.

So, when market interest rates fall in general, this would lead to a rise in the price of bonds as general interest rates represent yield to maturity.

David saves money from his teaching job to buy a new boat when he retires in 20 years. The boat will cost $30,000. He has $12,00
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Invest at a minimum of 7.5% annual simple interest

Explanation:

Given the goal of purchasing a boat that will cost $30,000 in 20 years, David needs to earn an interest computed below on his investment in the savings account.

Interest required = 30,000 - 12,000

= 18,000

Therefore the minimum rate of interest that will achieve this goal,

= Principal * rate * time = target amount

= 12,000 * R * 20 years = 18,000

= R = 18,000/(12,000*20) = 0.075 = 7.5%.

In addition, David could also continue his saving from his teaching job. This will reduce the minimum investment return required to achieve the goal.

Inventory Valuation under Variable Costing Lane Company produced 50,000 units during its first year of operations and sold 47,30
otez555 [7]

Answer:

1. $5.62

2. $15,174

Explanation:

1. The computation of the cost of one unit of product under variable costing is shown below:-

Total product cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Variable overhead

= $123,000 + $93,000 + $65,000

= $281,000

Unit product cost = Total product cost ÷ Produced units

= $281,000 ÷ $50,000

= $5.62

2. The computation of cost of ending inventory under variable costing is shown below:-

Unsold at end = Unit produced - Unit sold

= 50,000 - 47,300

= 2,700

Cost of ending inventory = Number of units sold × Unit product cost

= $5.62 × 2,700

= $15,174
