Answer:

1. 5.00%

2. 15.70 year

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

1) For computing the interest rate we need to applied the RATE formula which is shown in the attached spreadsheet

Given that

Future value = 0

Present value = -$2587.09

PMT = $950

NPER = 3 years

The formula is shown below:

= RATE(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV)

The present value comes in negative

After applying the above formula, the interest rate is 5%

2) For computing the number of years we need to use NPER i.e to be shown in the attachment below

Given that

Future Value = $920,925

Present Value = 0

PMT = -$40,000

Interest rate = 5%

The formula is shown below

= NPER(RATE;-PMT;PV;FV)

The PMT comes in negative

After applying the above formula, the nper is 15.70 years

A famous quarterback just signed a contract for $18.6 million, providing $3.1 million a year for 6 years. A less famous receiver

barxatty [35]

Answer:

a) The PV of the quarterback's contract is 13.91 million

b) The PV of the receiver's contract is 14.42 million .

c) The Receiver is better paid

Explanation:

PV of quarterback

= 3.1/1.09 + 3.1/1.09^2 + 3.1/1.09^3 + 3.1/1.09^4 + 3.1/1.09^5 + 3.1/1.09^6

= 3.1/0.09*(1 - (1/1.09)^6)

= 13.91 million

Therefore, The PV of the quarterback's contract is 13.91 million .

PV of receiver's contract

= 5 + 2.1/1.09 + 2.1/1.09^2+2.1/1.09^3+2.1/1.09^4+2.1/1.09^5+2.1/1.09^6

= 5 + 2.1/0.09*(1 - (1/1.09)^6)

= 14.42 million

Therefore, The PV of the receiver's contract is 14.42 million .

c) Since the PV of the quarterback's contract is less than the PV of the receiver's contract, The Receiver is better paid.

Tempest Co. purchased 60, 6% Ulrich Company bonds for $60,000 cash. Interest is payable semiannually on July 1 and January 1. If

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (a).

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Purchase Bonds = 60

Purchased bonds value = $60,000

So Purchased value of 30 bonds = $60,000 ÷ 2 = $30,000

Sold 30 bonds at value = $32,000

So, we can calculate the gain on sale by using following formula:

Gain on sale = Sold 30 bonds at value - Purchased value of 30 bonds

By putting the value, we get

= $32,000 - $30,000

= $2,000

A customer opens a new margin account with the following position:

galben [10]

Answer:

$1,000

Explanation:

The above means that for every $1 increase in the market value in a long margin account, the SMA increases by $0.50

If the market value rises to $22,000, the account will show

Long market value - Debit = Equity % SMA

$22,000 - $10,000 = $12,000

Against $22,00 of market value, 50% can be borrowed or $11,000. Since the debit is $10,000, an additional $1,000 can be borrowed . This is the SMA
