Answer:

$5.97

Explanation:

In order to determine the capital gain of the bond in a year's time,it is first first of all important to calculate the yield to maturity on the bond which is arrived at by applying the rate formula in excel as follows:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of coupon interest the bond would pay over its entire life of 15 years which is 15

pmt is the annual interest,7.9%*$1000=$79

pv is the current market price of the bond which is $790

fv is the value of $1000

=rate(15,79,-790,1000)=10.79%

Afterwards,the price of the bond in one year' time can then be calculated:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

The variables in the formula are as above except for nper which would reduce by 1 in a year's time

=-pv(10.79%,14,79,1000)

pv=$ 795.97

Hence the capital gain=price now-price one year ago/price one year ago

price now is $795.97

price one year ago was $790

Capital gain=$795.97-$790=$5.97

Capital gain %= ($795.97-$790)/$790=0.76%

Answer:

revenue falls by $167,005.08

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

When elasticity of demand is less than 1, demand is inelastic

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.

change in percentage demanded when price falls by 11% = 11% x 0.6 = 6.6%

Quantity demanded increases by 6.6%

Increase in quantity demanded = 18,100 x 1.066 = 19,294.60

decrease in price = 0.89 x $180 = $160.20

change in total revenue

(180 x 18,100 ) - ( $160 .20 x 19,294.60)

= 3,258,000 - 3,090,994.92

=167,005.08
