Answer:

YTM is 4.94%

Explanation:

The  yield  to maturity is the return on the bond throughout the bond's tenure and can be computed using rate function in excel as shown below.

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

nper is the number of coupons the bond has left to pay(23 years*2)

pmt is the semiannual coupon of the bond=$1000*5.3%*6/12=26.5

pv is the curren price=$1000*105%=$1050

fv is the face value of the bond

=rate(46,26.5,-1050,1000)=2.47%

2.47% is the semiannual yield

annual yield=2.47% *2=4.94%

In a bill-and-hold arrangement, revenue only can be recognized after the sale of the goods to the end user.
Verdich [7]

The correct answer is True. When ownership of the items passes to the customer, revenue is realised. In addition to the requirements for determining when control transfers, a reporting entity must also satisfy certain additional requirements for a customer to have achieved control in a bill-and-hold arrangement.

A bill and hold sales arrangement allows for payment in advance of the item's delivery. This is a sales agreement when a product seller invoices a consumer up front but doesn't actually ship the thing until later.

In a bill and hold transaction, the vendor does not deliver the purchased goods to the customer, but the associated income is still recorded. Under this structure, revenue cannot be recognised until a number of severe requirements have been satisfied. The possibility of falsely recognising revenue too early exists otherwise.

Suppose the government enacts a price floor on milk, which leads to a surplus in the market. How will the government then attemp
Anna [14]

Answer:

Price Floor led Excess Supply can be solved by : Preserving goods Buffer Stock ; or processing goods to increase their shelf life (in case of perishable goods like Milk)

Explanation:

Unregulated markets are at equilibrium where : market demand , market supply are equal ; and downward sloping demand curve , upward sloping supply curve intersect.

Price Floor is minimum mandated price set by government, below which a good can't be sold in the market. It is usually set above equilibrium price, to protect interest of sellers. Example : Minimum Support Price as minimum agricultural  goods price to protect interest of farmers, Given Milk Price floor case.

Price Floor creates artificially higher prices ; so increases supply, decreases supply & hence creates Excess Supply. Government can solve this excess supply by preserving stock supply for contingent times , eg -  maintaining buffer stock. If the good is of perishable nature, as given milk case : it should be processed further to increase its shelf life, eg - cheese, such that the stock supply can be released at a slower pace.
