Answer:

Sheila letting Susan keep $1,000 without holding her liable for not completing the job is an example of a WAIVER.

Explanation:

A waiver is a legal intention or demonstration of a party in a contract to voluntarily relinquish their rights or claims in a contract. This is done without holding the other party (especially when they default in meeting the terms of the contract) liable for damages.

The party that voluntarily relinquishes their rights will usually not pursue any legal action against the defaulting party.

Therefore the scenario above is an example of a waiver, since Sheila has decided not to enforce the contract and has also allowed Susan keep part of the money.

A corporate bond has a face value of $1,000 and a coupon rate of 5%. The bond matures in 20 years and has a current market price
user100 [1]

Answer: 4.10%

Explanation:

Solve for the current rate being used using the RATE function on Excel.

Number of periods = 15

Payment = 1,000 * 5% = 50

Present value = Current market price - floatation costs = 900 - 25 = 875

Future value = 1,000 face value

The result will be:

= 6.31%

If tax is 35%, after-tax cost is:

= 6.31% * (1 - 35%)

= 4.10%

Corona Co. is expecting to receive 100,000 British pounds in one year. Corona expects the spot rate of British pound to be $1.49
Grace [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

1st strategy : Selling pound forward

The spot rate of the pound is quoted at $1.51.

The one-year forward rate exhibits a 2.65% premium.

The one-year forward rate = 1.51 ( 1+ 0.0265)

= $ 1.55

Dollars received = 100000 * 1.55 = $155000

2nd strategy : Buying put option

The strike price of put = $1.54

premium on option is $.03

Amount received per option = $ 1.54 - $ 0.03 =$1.51

Total Dollars received = 100000* 1.51 = $ 151000

the best possible hedging strategy is Selling pound forward and receiving $155000
