Answer:

YTM 7.02%

Explanation:

we will calcualte the YTM of the current bonds to know the market rate.

Issuing the bonds at this rate will put them at par value.

The YTM is the one which mades the future coupon payment and maturity equal to the market price.

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

Coupon payment: 1,000 x 8%/2 =  40

time 30 (15 years x 2 payment)

40 \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-30} }{r} = PV\\

PV coupon

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  1,000.00

time   30.00

\frac{1000}{(1 + r)^{30} } = PV  

PV maturity  355.24

PV coupon +  PV maturity = 1,090

For maths reason the only way to solve for rate is with trial and error

we can, however use excel to do it more quickly than by hand:

we write on A1 cell 0.1

en on B1 cell: =PV(A1,30,40)

on C1 cell= 1,000/power(1+A1;1/30)

on D1 =B1+C1

What we are doing is expressing the formulas on excel

then we use goal seek on D1

w e want it on 1090 cahnging the cell A1 which is the rate

this give us the semiannual rate of :

0.035100422

we multiply by 2 to get the annual rate:

0.070200843

YTM = 7.02%

we need to issue the bond at this rate.

Woodland industries manufactures and sells custom-made windows. Its job costing system was designed using an activity-based cost
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

a.

Direct materials 101,500

Direct labour (13,600 * 13) 176, 800

Materials handling (508 * 0.28) 142.24

Cutting and lathe work (508 * 12.32) 6258.56

Assembly and inspection (13,600 * 17.5) 238,000

Total manufacturing cost 522,700.8

Cost per unit produced = 522,700.8 / 3,050 =  

= 171.377 per unit.

b.

Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated overhead costs / Estimated Direct labour hours

(61,600 + 2,710,400 + 3,850,000) / 220,000

= 30.1 per direct labour hour

Direct materials 101,500

Direct labour (13,600 * 13) 176,800

Manufacturing overhead (13,600 * 30.1) 409,360

Total manufacturing cost 687,660

Cost per unit produced = 687,660/ 3,050

= 225.46 per unit.

irakobra [83]

Answer:

B. a decrease in the demand for loanable funds.

Explanation:

An increase in the real interest rate will result in a decrease for the loanable funds.

Loans act as a fund that is an amount of money borrowed by the companies to be utilized for the running of the business. Interest is the amount payable at a certain rate on the amount borrowed in the form of loans. Loans are generally provided by either the banks or the financial institutions to the public or even companies.

The higher the rate of interest the lesser the demand for loans is there. Interest is charged on loans because it is a facility given.

Lee Airlines plans to issue 12-year bonds with a par value of $1,000 that will pay $70 every six months. The bonds have a market
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

After tax cost of debt = 10.43%

Explanation:

Market price = 960

Flotation cost = 0.07

Market price after Flotation cost = 960*(1-0.07) = 960*0.93 = 892.8

Face value = 1,000

Interest payment (PMT) = 1000*0.07 = 70

Term of payment = 12*2 = 24

Cost of debt before tax = Rate(24, 70, -892.8, 1000, 0)*2

Cost of debt before tax = 0.080198497*2

Cost of debt before tax = 0.160396994

Cost of debt before tax = 16.04%

Tax rate = 35%

After tax cost of debt = 16.04% * (1-35%)

After tax cost of debt = 0.1604*0.65

After tax cost of debt = 0.10426

After tax cost of debt = 10.43%
