Answer:

Return = 29.64%

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

Time = 20 years

Interest = $90

Face value = $1,000

Rate = 10%

Current price of the bond = interest [1 - (1-rate)^(-time)] ÷ rate + Face value × (1+r)^(-time)

= 90 [1 - (1-0.10)^(-20)] ÷ 0.10 + $1,000 × (1+0.10)^(-20)

= 90 × 8.5136 + $1,000 × 0.14864

= $914.864

Price of the bond after 1 year = 90[1-(1-0.08)^(-19)] ÷ 0.08 + $1,000 × (1+0.08)^(-19)

= 90 × 9.6036 + $1,000 × 0.23171

= $1,096.04

Return = Ending price + Coupon - Beginning price ) ÷ Beginning price

= ($1,096.04 + 90 - $914.864) ÷ $914.864

= 0.2964  

= 29.64 %

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Behan will recover his amount.

Explanation:

The contract has not been formed as the contract is only enforceable if the contract is legally allowed which means that the selling of fireworks in this case scenario is not allowed and hence Behan and Fourth of July Company are both equally responsible for not committing to such type of agreements. So the company must payback the money as the contract is not enforceable in the jurisdiction.

<span>When a firm grants licenses internationally, it is giving foreign companies access to its trademarks, </span>technology and patents. Having your licenses and business become international is a huge gain for most businesses. When items go international, they have a larger market they can sell their products too, but there are also some risk to it as well. Allowing the foreign countries and companies to see how your products work inside and out benefit them while bringing in more profit to the international licensee.

Fed [463]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Each unit of output requires 0.52 direct labor-hours. The direct labor rate is $9.00 per direct labor-hour. The production budget calls for producing 1,700 units in April and 1,600 units in May. The company is committed to paying its direct labor workforce for at least 960 hours a month.

We need to calculate the total number of hours required each month.

April:

Direct labor hours= 1,700 units* 0.52= 884 hours

Total cost= 960 hours*$9= $8,640

May:

Direct labor hours= 1,600 units* 0.52= 832 hours

Total cost= 960 hours*$9= $8,640
