A 6-year bond, 8% semiannual coupon bond sells at par ($1,000). Another bond of equal risk, maturity, and par value pays an 8% a
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

  • The bond has 8% coupon paid semiannually, and those bonds sell at their par value.
  • Since the bond sales at par value, Market rate (Yield) = Coupon rate =8%

<u>Second bond:</u>

  • Coupon rate = 8%
  • Par value = $1,000
  • Semiannual coupon amount = 1000 x 8%/2 = $40
  • Time to maturity = 6 years = 12 semiannual periods
  • Semiannual Yield = 8%/2 = 4%

To get price of this bond we will use PV function of excel:

= PV (rate, nper, pmt, fv, type)

= PV (4%, 12, -40, -1000, 0)

= $1053.32

  • Price of this bond = $1,053.3

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer: Total Variable Costs = $110130

Explanation:

The question in incomplete. Requirements were not provided in the question, as a result it is not clear what the question requires us to do. We will assume the question requires us to calculate Total variable costs since There is nothing in the question that talks about fixed costs.

Total Variable Costs

Manufacturing costs

Direct Material Per pound = $2.95

Direct Material used  = 27800 pounds

Direct Material Cost = 27800 x 2.95 = $82010

Direct Labor

Direct Labor cost per hour = $6.20

Direct Labor hours = 3800

Direct Labour Cost = 3800 x $6.20 = $23560

Variable Manufacturing overhead cost = $4560

Total Variable Costs = Direct Material cost + Direct labor costs + Variable Manufacturing overhead

Total Variable Costs = $82010 + $23560 + $4560

Total Variable Costs = $110130

solmaris [256]

Answer:

Disadvantage of Corporate Form of Organization:

d. Government regulation

Explanation:

In recent times, government regulation of businesses appears to be regarded as a disadvantage of the corporate form of organizations.  Governments intervene and regulate corporate entities whenever they fail to be self-regulatory.  But, the regulations may appear to be so much that the corporate form of organization now looks like a disadvantage.  Given the many corporate scandals, collapses, and misapplications of resources by corporate entities that have become the order of the day, government regulation is very important.  Without government regulation, many corporate bodies will not be acting in the public interest.  This is more so with public entity corporate organizations with diverse stakeholders and corporate managers who act as if they were running their own autonomous governments.
