mars1129 [50]

Answer:

7%

Explanation:

Return on investment (ROI) is a very popular and simple profitability ratio used by financial and business analyst to test the profitability or otherwise of an investment. It is always calculated by dividing the net income by the Cost of Investment, expressed as a percentage.

ROI = (Net Income / Cost of Investment) x 100%

Net Income = Capital gain + dividend received

Capital gain = Sales of stock - Cost of stock

= $104,000 - $100,000 = $4,000

Dividend = $3,000

Net Income = $4,000 + $3,000 = $7,000

Cost of Investment = $100,000

ROI = ($7,000 / $100,000) x 100%

ROI = (0.07) x 100%

ROI = 7%

Therefore, the return on investment of the Gamma stock is 7%.

(Bond valuation) You are examining three bonds with a par value of $1 comma 000 (you receive $1 comma 000 at maturity) and

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Bond A, 5 years to maturity, semiannual coupons, 8%

Bond B, 10 years to maturity, annual coupon, 8%

Bond C, 15 years to maturity, semiannual coupon, 8%

a) market rate 8% semiannual

Bonds A and C will be worth $1,000 (par value)

price of bond B:

effective interest rate = 1.04² - 1 = 8.16%
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.04²⁰ = $456.39
PV of coupon payments = $80 x 6.66192 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 8.16%, 10 periods) = $532.95

market price = $989.34

b) price of bond A:

PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.025¹⁰ = $781.98

PV of coupon payments = $40 x 8.75206 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 2.5%, 10 periods) = $350.08

market price = $1,132.06

price of bond B:

effective interest rate = 1.025² - 1 = 5.0625%
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.025²⁰ = $610.27
PV of coupon payments = $80 x 7.69817 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 5.0625%, 10 periods) = $615.85

market price = $1,226.12

price of bond C:

PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.025³⁰ = $476.74

PV of coupon payments = $40 x 20.93029 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 2.5%, 30 periods) = $837.21

market price = $1,313.95

c) price of bond A:

PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.075¹⁰ = $485.19

PV of coupon payments = $40 x 6.86408 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 7.5%, 10 periods) = $274.56

market price = $759.75

price of bond B:

effective interest rate = 1.075² - 1 = 15.5625%
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.075²⁰ = $235.41
PV of coupon payments = $80 x 4.91292 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 15.5625%, 10 periods) = $393.03

market price = $628.44

price of bond C:

PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.075³⁰ = $114.22

PV of coupon payments = $40 x 11.81039 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 7.5%, 30 periods) = $472.42

market price = $586.64

d) If the market rate is lower than the coupon rate, then the bonds will sell at a premium. The longer the maturity date, the larger the variations in market price due to different interest rates. E.g. the 15 year bond is more affected than the 5 year bond.

A small clothing firm currently produces 50,000 shirts and blouses per month. The cost of its factory, raw materials, and labor

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

b. $10

Explanation:

The computation of the cost per shirt is shown below:

= (The cost of its factory, raw materials, and labor) ÷ (production level)

= $500,000 ÷ 50,000 shirts

= $10

Since we have to compute the cost per shirt before the increase in production level so we do not consider the increased production level and increase labor and raw material expense.

Vaseline, the world's most famous—and priciest—brand of petroleum jelly, wants to improve its financial performance (i.e. revenu

ohaa [14]

Answer:

Please consider the following explanation

Explanation:

Vaseline can improve its financial performance by doing some product differentiation, as the rest 15% are also selling petroleum jelly but at much lower costs than Vaseline, and to convince its customers to spend extra bucks to buy Vaseline, it needs to provide something extra.

Vaseline can incorporate extra ingredients like aloevera, or turmeric, etc, i.e. the beauty or health fashions prevalent in the market this information can be obtained by a thorough research of the beauty blogs available online.

Once the product has something extra, Vaseline can go ahead and market its product better based on the benefits of the product differentiation, and hence steam away market from the remaining 15% and increase its financial performance.
