Answer:

9.98%

Explanation:

Yield to maturity is the annual rate of return that an investor receives if a bond bond is held until the maturity. It is a long term return which is expressed in annual term.

As per given data

Annual Payment = $500

Current price = $5,012

$500 payment each year for indefinite period of time is a perpetuity, value of perpetuity can be calculated as follow

Current Price = Annual Payment / Yield to maturity

Yield to maturity = Annual Payment / Current Price

Yield to maturity = ( Annual payment / Current price ) x 100

Yield to maturity = ( $500 / $5,012 ) x 100

Yield to maturity = 0.0998 x 100

Yield to maturity = 9.98%

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

In June, Bedford Company sold 350 widgets. The average sales price was $34. During the month, fixed costs were $6,320 and variable costs were 40% of sales.

F<u>irst, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:</u>

Unitary variable cost= 34*0.4= $13.6

<u>Now, we can determine the contribution margin per unit and the contribution margin ratio:</u>

contribution margin per unit= selling price - unitary variable cost

contribution margin per unit= 34 - 13.6= $20.4

contribution margin ratio= contribution margin per unit/selling price

contribution margin ratio= 20.4/34

contribution margin ratio= 0.6

<u>To calculate the break-even point in units and dollars, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 6,320/20.4

Break-even point in units= 310 units

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 6,320/0.6

Break-even point (dollars)= $10,533

<u>To calculate the margin of safety, we will use the following formula:</u>

Margin of safety= (current sales level - break-even point)

Margin of safety= 350*34 - 10,533

Margin of safety= $1,367

<u>Finally, the desired profit is $4,000:</u>

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units=  (6,320 + 4,000) / 20.4

Break-even point in units= 506 units

Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit)/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 10,320/0.6

Break-even point (dollars)= $17,200

If the ratio for unit cost to sales price for a product is 1:4, how much would the selling price be for a product if it has a un
Mkey [24]
Ratio and proportion is a useful method in determining a value using a known constant in ratio form. In this case, the ratio of cost to price is always 1/4. Hence, the solution goes as follows:

1/4 = 33.85/price
Price = 33.85*4
Price= $135.4

An individual has utility function U(x)=x1/4U(x)=x1/4 for salary, and is considering new job offer which pays $80,000 with a bon
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

108,280.22

Explanation:

Certainty equivalent is solved by taking the inverse utility function from the expected utility of a random wealth variable

U(x) = x^1/4

U^-1(x) = x^4

U^-1(x) === x^4

CE(x) = x^4

Salary   Bonus   Total income   U(x)= x^(1/4)       P(x)        U(x)*P(x)

80000       0          80000               16.82                1/7             2.4

80000    10000     90000               17.32                1/7            2.47

80000    20000    100000              17.78                1/7            2.54

80000    30000    110000               18.21                 1/7            2.6

80000    40000    120000              18.61                 1/7            2.66

80000    50000    130000              18.99                1/7            2.71

80000    60000    140000              19.34                1/7             <u>2.76</u>

Sum                                                                                             <u>18.14</u>

CE(x) =  18.14^4

CE(x) = 108280.22

So therefore,  the certainty equivalent of this job offer is 108,280.22
