You own 300 shares of Somner Resources' preferred stock, which currently sells for $39 per share and pays annual dividends of $5.50 per share. If the market's required yield on similar shares 12% is percent, should you sell your shares or buy more?
Solution as mentioned below:
First of all we need to calculate value of the preferred stock by dividing the annual dividend per share from the market required rate.
Value of preferred stock = 5.50 / 12%
Value of preferred stock = $45.83
Now given the fact that the current price at which the stocks are sold is $39 which is less than the price at which they are actually valued which is $45.83. You should buy more of the shares as they are currently undervalued.
Answer:
10%
Explanation:
Since the bond is selling at a discount, it means that the coupon rate is blow the market rate, so the actual rate must be higher. Since there is only one option with an interest rate above 9%, we must check to see if it works.
10% yearly interest rate = 5% semiannual interest rate
we must determine the PV of the 20 coupons paid and the face value at maturity.
to calculate the PV of the 20 coupons ($45 each) we can use an excel spreadsheet and the NPV function with a 5% discount rate: PV of the coupons = $560.80
the PV of the face value in 10 years = $1,000 / 1.05²⁰ = $376.89
the present value of the coupons and the bond at maturity = $560.80 + $376.89 = $937.69. The PV using a 5% semiannual rate is very similar to $937.75, and since the question asked us to round up to the nearest whole percent, we can assume it is correct.

First let us define the nature of each of the following as per Balance sheet of a company:
Payroll payable- Liability
FICA taxes withheld- Liability
Federal taxes- Liability
410(k)- Liability
Explanation:
Effect of Transaction on assets and liabilities:
- Payroll expense Debit will have no impact
- Payroll payable, Federal taxes, FICA and 401(k) will increase the current liability.
- And when they are subsequently paid, cash will be credited hence decreasing the current assets and all these current liabilities shall be debited, hence decreasing the current liability portion.
