Answer:

Yield to Maturity(YTM) = 3.47%

Explanation:

<em>The yield to maturity is the required rate of return (discount rate) that would equate the price of the bond and cash outflow  expected from the bond.  The yield on the bond can be determined as follows using the formula below:  </em>

YTM = C + F-P/n) ÷ 1/2 (F+P)  

YTM-Yield to maturity-  

C- coupon  

F- Face Value  

P- Current Price  

DATA  

Coupon = coupon rate × Nominal value = 1,000 × 8%× 1/2=40(note we divide by 2 because interest is paid semi-annually)

n= 4×2 = 8 (note there 2 half months in a year)

Face Value = 1000

YM-?, C-40, Face Value - 1,000, P-103.75/100×   1000 = 1037.5

YM = (40 + (1000-1037)/8) ÷ ( 1/2× (1000 + 1037.5  ) )  =0.0347

YM = 0.0347 × 100 = 3.47%  

Yield to Maturity = 3.47%

The balance of fixed assets is computed as

Opening balance - accumulated depreciation - depreciation + Addition - Disposal

Hence given that on December 31, 2017, Calgary Industries reports equipment of $470,000 and accumulated depreciation of $94,000. During 2018, the company plans to purchase additional equipment costing $100,000 and expects depreciation expense of $40,000, Additionally, it plans to dispose of equipment that originally cost $52,000 and had accumulated depreciation of $7,600 the balance then

= $470,000 + $100,000 - $52,000

= $518,000

The accumulated depreciation

= $94,000 + $40,000 - $7,600

= $126,400
