The convexity of the bond is 61.810 and the duration of the bond is 7.330 years.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- A newly issued bond has a maturity of 10 years. It pays a 7.7% coupon rate. The coupon payments will receive each year. Using the coupon payments the year will be reduced.
- The maturity year will get reduced. So the duration of the bond is approximately 7.330 years. If the bond is sold at par value the convexity can be calculated using the number of years.
- So the convexity of the bond is 61.810.
Answer:
$64,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the cost of goods sold using the average cost method
First step is to calculate the Average cost
Average cost = [(200 × $140) + (400 × $160) + (100 × $200)] ÷ 700 units
Average cost= $160
Now let calculate the Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold = $160 × 400 units
Cost of goods sold = $64,000
Therefore the cost of goods sold using the average cost method will be $64,000
Answer:
$493.8
Explanation:
Since the 2016 financial statements of Leggett & Platt, Inc. includes the following information in a footnote. (in millions) 2016 2015 Allowance for doubtful accounts $ 7.2 $ 9.3 Total accounts and other receivables, net $486.6 $520.2
Therefore the company’s current gross accounts and other receivables at the end of 2016 is
Net Total accounts and other receivables, net $486.6
Allowance for doubtful accounts ..........................<u>...$ 7.2</u>
Gross accounts and other receivables................<u>$493.8</u>
<u>The gross accounts and other receivables will be the amounts before making any allowances for doubtful accounts</u>
Answer:
a. continue with the project provided that the additional solar electricity is worth more than $10 million.
Explanation:
It is provided that after cost overruns of the project is $10 million, which can never be recovered, thus, it is a kind of sunk cost.
Sunk cost is the cost which is made previously, and now in no manner will affect the decision, as cannot be recovered.
Therefore, such cost is ignored.
Further provided additional cost will be $12 million, therefore, now the society shall make a rational choice whether to continue the project providing solar electricity of $10 million, as in case of amount of solar energy is $32 million or $22 million, then the choice is obvious to accept,
Rational choice will be for solar electricity worth $10 million.
Therefore, correct statement is
a. continue with the project provided that the additional solar electricity is worth more than $10 million.
