Answer:

You can sell the bond for $1,008.78 today

Explanation:

We need to calculate current value of the bond & its coupon

Face value: $1,000

Left tenor: 20 years (= 30 years to maturity - 10 years ago)

Coupon rate: 5%

Yield to maturity: 4.93%

Total coupon to be paid every year= $1,000* 5%  = $50

To calculate the current value of coupon received in every of 20 years, we use formula PV in excel or manually as below:

PV = 50/(1+4.93%)^20 + 50/(1+4.93%)^19+.... +50/(1+4.93%)^1 = $626.83

The current value of face value after 20 years = $1,000/(1+4.93%)^20 = $381.95

So the value of bond = $626.83 + $381.95 = $1,008.78

The price of gold is currently $1,400 per ounce. The forward price for delivery in one year is$1,500. An arbitrageur can borrow
Rashid [163]

Answer:

The arbitrageur should borrow money at 4% per annum since it is cheaper than paying the forward price for delivery

Explanation:

Current price of gold=$1,400 per ounce

Forward price=$1,500

The arbitrageur can either pay the forward price or borrow $1400 and pay the interest of 4% in a year. Consider option 1 paying the forward price of 1500

Option 1

Since there are no additional costs, the total cost for buying the gold=forward price=$1,500

Option 2

If the arbitrageur borrows the 1400 to pay for the gold now, then pay the interest in 1 year;

The total cost=Amount borrowed+interest accrued in 1 year

Total cost=1400+(4%×1400)

1400+((4/100)×1400)

1400+56=$1456

Since there are no additional costs, option 2=$1456

If we compare option 1 to option 2, we notice that option 2 is slightly cheaper than option 1 by $44

(Option 1-Option 2)=(1500-1456)=$44

The arbitrageur should borrow money at 4% per annum since it is cheaper than paying the forward price for delivery

Joe is a new broker. how often will he be required to reconcile his escrow account(s)?
storchak [24]

Joe is a new broker. He will be required to reconcile his escrow account monthly.

<h3>Who is a broker?</h3>
  • In order to earn a commission after the trade is completed, brokers organize transactions between buyers and sellers.
  • Brokers that take on dual roles as buyers or sellers are considered primary parties to the transaction.
  • Neither function should be mistaken with that of an agent, who represents the principal party in a transaction.
  • An impartial party whose services are often used in several businesses is a broker.
  • The main duty of a broker is to connect buyers and sellers; as a result, the broker acts as a neutral intermediary between a buyer and a seller.
  • A real estate or stockbroker who helps in the sale of a property would be an example.

At the Penalty APR rate of 28.99% and a balance of about $1800, approximately how much interest would you owe in one month?
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

you owe $43.47 in one month

Explanation:

Daily Interest (for one month) = Balance × APR rate × [number of month / Total month in a year]

Daily Interest = $1800 × 28.99% × 1/12

                      = $1800 × 0.2899 × 0.0833

                      = $43.47

nirvana33 [79]

Answer: a. Boot camp is the military's version of employee orientation.

Explanation:

To become an employee in a company, it is standard practice for the employer to give the employee an orientation so that they may be able to perform better at their jobs because they would know what is expected of them and how to go about achieving this.

This is the same for the military. When they send recruits to boot camps, they are doing their version of employee orientation because the recruit will learn what Uncle Sam expects from them and how they are to accomplish these tasks.

Debit Bond Premium $1,000

Credit Bond Premium Amortization $1,000

To record the amortization of the premium for six months using the straight-line method.

Explanation:

a) Common Stock issued at $30 with $20 par value means that the shares were issued at above par value.  The difference is accounted for in a separate account called Additional Paid-in Capital.  The same applies to the preferred stock issued at above par value.

b) The face value of the Bonds is $500,000 but issued at a premium.  The total premium is $20,000 ($500,000 x 0.04).

c) Dividends on the Common Stock = $0.50 * 100,000 shares = $50,000.  The preferred stock dividends = $1.00 * 20,000 = $20,000.

d) Treasury Stock represents the value of common stock repurchased or reissued from stockholders by the company.  There are two methods to treat the above or below par value at which the shares are repurchased or issued.  One method is the costing method where the above or below par value is not taken to a separate account, but everything is treated in the Treasury Stock account.  The other method is the par value method.  This treats the above or below par value in the Additional Paid-in Capital account.  This is the method adopted here.  Note that Treasury Stock is a contra account to the Common Stock.

e) Bond Premium Amortization (straight-line method) is calculated as follows: $20,000/10 *6/12 = $1,000 for six months.  A Premium on Bonds arises when the bonds are trading at above the face value.  The amortization of Bond Premium is the write-down of the excess premium paid or received over and above the face value of the Bond.  In this case, we used the straight-line method.
