Answer:
5.32%
Explanation:
The computation of the coupon rate on the bonds is shown below:
As we know that
Current price = Annual coupon × Present value of annuity factor(6.1%,8 ) + $1,000 × Present value of discounting factor(6.1%,8)
$952 = Annual coupon × 6.18529143 + $1,000 × 0.622697222
Annual coupon is
= ($952 - 622.697222) ÷ 6.18529143
= $53.24
Now
Coupon rate is
= Annual coupon ÷ Face value
= $53.24 ÷ $1,000
= 5.32%
Working notes:
1. Present value of annuity is
= Annuity × [1 - (1 + interest rate)^-time period] ÷ rate
= Annual coupon × [1 - (1.061)^-8] ÷ 0.061
= Annual coupon × 6.18529143
And,
2.Present value of discounting factor is
= $1,000 ÷ 1.061^8
= $1000 × 0.622697222
Answer:
Total fixed cost $16,000
unit fixed cost for 10,000 units $1.60
Explanation:
the budget was made for 8,000 units
so the 2.00 dollars for fixed cost will be based on a production for 8,000 units
total fixed cost: 8,000 budgeted units x $2 per unit = 16,000
This is the level of fixed cost.
<u>For 10,000 units the total fixed cost should be the same.</u>
and for units it will be total cost / units of production
16,000 / 10,000 = 1.6
On unit-level it will drop by 40 cent to $1.60 from $2.00
I would say the answer is D
Answer:
d. the quantity demanded for the market will increase to less than 30,000 workers.
Explanation:
Missing options:
- a. the quantity demanded for the market will increase to 30,000 workers.
-
b. the quantity demanded for the market will increase to more than 30,000 workers.
-
c. the quantity demanded for the market will increase, but we can't tell which of the above answers is correct.
-
d. the quantity demanded for the market will increase to less than 30,000 workers.
maximum total demand for labor = 30 (at $8) x 1,000 firms = 30,000 workers, but since the equilibrium rate had been $9 for many years, some workers have already been hired at $9, and it is usually very difficult to lower someone's wage once they have been working. Even thought the quantity demanded will increase, it will probably not be able to reach 30,000 workers.
Answer:
10.77%
Explanation:
FV: $1000
PV: $845.87
PMT: $60
Nper: 40 = (25 years - 5 years ago)* 2 for semi-annual payment
We use excel to calculate semi-annual discount rate by formula Rate(Nper,PMT,-PV,FV)
= rate(40,$60,-$845.87,$1000) = 7.18%
⇒ annual rate = semi-annual rate * 2 = 7.18% * 2 = 14.36%
after-tax cost of debt = 14.36% * (1 - 25%) = 10.77%
