Answer:

0.0782

Explanation:

First and foremost we need to determine the price of investment A in order to ascertain the price of Bond B as well:

The price of investment A is the present value of its cash flows.

price of investment A=$342.76+$342.76/(1+14.48%)^1+$342.76/(1+14.48%)^2+$342.76/(1+14.48%)^3+$342.76/(1+14.48%)^4+$342.76/(1+14.48%)^5+$342.76/(1+14.48%)^6+$342.76/(1+14.48%)^7=$ 1,791.31  

Price of Bond=total value of holdings-price of investment A=$2,607-$1,791.31=$ 815.69  

The yield to maturity on Bond can be determined using rate formula in excel:

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

nper is the number of coupon payments which 20*2=40

pmt is the semiannual coupon=$1000*5.98%*6/12 =$29.9

pv is the current price of $815.69

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(40,29.9,-815.69,1000)=3.91%

Annual yield=3.91% *2=7.82%

Answer:

4.96%

Explanation:

In order to determine the component after-tax cost of debt first we need to  compute the before tax cost of debt by applying the RATE formula which is to be shown in the attachment below:

Given that,  

Present value = $1,155

Future value or Face value = $1,000  

PMT = 1,000 × 8.25% ÷ 2 = $41.25

NPER = 40 years × 2 = 80 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after applying the above formula

1. The pretax cost of debt is 3.54%  × 2 = 7.08%

2. And, the after tax cost of debt would be

= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)

= 7.08% × ( 1 - 0.30)

= 4.96%

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

TRUE.

Explanation:

One key for sport organizations to use market segmentation effectively involves integrating the strategy with a DBM or CRM system to pinpoint which segments can be contacted. Both DBM and CRM systems can give an organization very valid and reliable information about their customers which then managers can use to form patterns and analyse trends and buying habits of the customers. This information can be easily used for effective targeting. Managers can easily know which segments they should target and how sales can be increased in that particular segment. What offers should be sent to that specific segment.
