Answer:

(b) + 4.89%

Explanation:

Price of bond is the present value of future cash flows. The coupon payment and cash flow at maturity is discounted to calculate the value of the bond.

Assuming the face value of the bond is $1,000

As per given data

Coupon payment = $1,000 x 8.4% = $84 annually = $42 semiannually

Number of periods = n = 19 years x 2 = 38 periods

Yield to maturity = 7.2% annually = 3.6% semiannually

To calculate Price of the bond use following formula

Price of the Bond = C x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F / ( 1 + r )^n ]

Price of the Bond =$42 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 3.6% )^-38 ) / 3.6% ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 3.6% )^38 ]

Price of the Bond = $42 x [ ( 1 - ( 1.036 )^-38 ) / 0.036 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1.036 )^38 ]

Price of the Bond = $862.38 + $260.81

Price of the Bond = $1,123.19

There is an increase in selling price

Change in price = $1,123.19 - $1,070.85 = 52.34

Percentage change = 52.34 / $1,070.85 = 4.89%

Pauline

a. Summary of the flow of physical units:

Beginning Work in process = 209,000

Started during month =        1,025,000

less ending work in process  159,000

Units completed in month = 1,075,000

b. Computation of output in terms of equivalent units:

Units completed:

                                                       Physical      Direct      Conversion

                                                            Unit        Material        Cost

Determination of equivalent units:

less ending work in process  159,000    103,350 (65%)   127,200 (80%)

Units produced                     1,075,000   1,075,000 (100%)  1,075,000 (100%)

Explanation:

Data:

                                                         Physical      Direct      Conversion

                                                            Unit        Material        Cost

Beginning work in process            209,000

Ending work in process                  159,000      65%          80%

Units started during the month  1,025,000

Total units in production             1,234,000        103,350      127,200

Determination of equivalent units:

less ending work in process         159,000      103,350      127,200

Units produced                           1,075,000   1,075,000   1,075,000

a) The equivalent unit is the product of the class of unit in production multiplied by the percentage of completion.  This forms the basis for allocating cost between a product's costs and the ending work in process.  Calculating the equivalent units helps to determine accurate costs of units completed.

If the internal rate of return is used as the discount rate in the net present value calcula-tion, the net present value will be
bezimeni [28]

If the internal rate of return is used as the discount rate in the net present value calculations, the net present value will be  equal to zero. The internal rate of return (IRR) is a financial analysis metric used to estimate the profitability of potential investments.

The IRR calculations use the same formula as NPV calculations. Keep in mind that the IRR is not the project's actual the dollar value. The annual return is what brings the NPV to zero. The IRR is calculated in the same way as net present value (NPV), except that it sets NPV to zero.

Explain why the monopsonist's marginal-revenue-product curve is downward sloping. Include the role of the price for the final go
alekssr [168]

Answer:

A monopsony is market where there is only one buyer, e.g. the government is the sole buyer for nuclear submarines in the US.

The demand curve of a monopsony is similar to the demand curve of any other type of market, i.e. it is downward sloping. Since there is only 1 buyer, the demand curve is also the supply curve. If the monopsonist wants to increase the quantity demanded at a lower price, the supplier (or suppliers) must be able to lower its costs and that generally results in lower labor costs.
