Answer:

The increase in yield to maturity from 5.5% to 7% will cause the price of the bond to fall from $ 1,057.46  to $ 972.70  

Explanation:

In order to ascertain the impact on the bond of a sudden increase in the yield to maturity from 5.5% to 7%, the present value of the bond, the current price is computed using yield of maturity of 5.5% and 7% respectively.

In calculating the present value, a discounting factor is used to state today's value of the future cash flows from the bond, given as 1/(1+r)^N, where r is the yield to maturity divided by 2 , in order to show that the bond is a semi-annual  interest paying bond.The fact that the bond is a semiannual one means interest would be paid 14 times( 7 years *2)

The present value is computed in the attached.

Suppose the demand and supply curves for eggs in the United
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:  Please find answers in explanation column

Explanation:

Given

Qd = 100 - 20P

Qs = 10 + 40P

Price Quantity       Quantity               Quantity  

( Per Dozen)      Demanded (Qd)    Supplied (Qs)

$ .50                             90                          30

$ 1.00                             80                           50

$ 1.50                            70                           70

$ 2.00                           60                           90

$ 2.50                          50                         110

Calculation

at price = $0.50

Qd = 100 - 20P =  100 - 20 x (0.50) =100-10 =90

Qs = 10 + 40P= 10 + 40 x (0.50)=10+ 20 = 30

at price = $1.00

Qd = 100 - 20P =  100 - 20 x (1.00) =100-20 =80

Qs = 10 + 40P= 10 + 40 x (1.00)=10+ 40 = 50

at price = $1.50

Qd = 100 - 20P =  100 - 20 x (1.50) =100-30 =70

Qs = 10 + 40P= 10 + 40 x (1.50)=10+ 60 = 70

at price = $2.00

Qd = 100 - 20P =  100 - 20 x (2.00) =100-40 =60

Qs = 10 + 40P= 10 + 40 x (2.00)=10+ 80 = 90

at price = $2.50

Qd = 100 - 20P =  100 - 20 x (2.50) =100-50=50

Qs = 10 + 40P= 10 + 40 x (2.50)=10+ 100 = 110

Current liabilities:

Trade Payables             Le24,000

Bank Overdraft               Le6,000

Total current liabilities Le30,000

Current ratio = Current assets/Current liabilities

Free Cash Flow Catering Corp. reported free cash flows for 2008 of $8.19 million and investment in operating capital of $2.19 mi
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

EBIT is $11.67 million

Explanation:

For computing the EBIT, first we have to calculate the operating cash flow which is shown below:

FCF = Operating cash flow – Investment in operating capital

$8.19 million = Operating cash flow - $2.19 million

So, the Operating cash flow = $10.38 million

Now we apply the operating cash flow which is shown below:

The operating cash flow is shown below:

= EBIT + Depreciation - Income tax expense

$10.38 million = EBIT + $0.9 million -2.19 million

$10.38 million = EBIT  - $1.29 million

So, EBIT is $11.67 million
