Answer: $34.33

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that bond has a par value of $1,000, a current yield of 6.84 percent, and semiannual coupon payments and that the bond is quoted at 100.39.

Thee amount of each coupon payment goes thus:

We have to calculate the bond price which will be:

= $1000 × 100.39%

= $1000 × 1.39

= $1003.9

It should be noted that the current yield is calculated as the annual coupon amount divided by the bond price. This will be:

6.84% = annual coupon amount ÷ $1003.9

Annual coupon amount = $1003.9 × 6.84%

= $1003.9 × 0.0684

= $68.67

Each coupon amount will now be:

= $68.67/2

= $34.33

Consider a project with free cash flows in one year of $90,000 in a weak economy or $117,000 in a strong economy, with each outc
lozanna [386]

Answer:

B) $90,000

Explanation:

The market value of the unlevered equity can be calculated using the following formula:

Expected value = Σpx

Where:

p = the probability of each outcome =50% in this case for both weak and strong economy.

x = the present value of cash flow for each outcome which is $90,000 in case of weak economy and $117,000 in case of strong economy.

Expected value= 0.50(90,000(1+15%)^-1)+0.50(117,000(1+15%)^-1)

                         =0.50(78,260.87)+0.50(101,739.13)

                         =$90,000

So the answer is B) $90,000

Musashi lives in Philadelphia and runs a business that sells pianos. In an average year, he receives $704,000 from selling piano
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Explicit costs are actual costs which Yakov must make while implicit costs are opposite of explicit costs, Implicit costs are opportunity costs.

Grouping them, we have the following;

•The wages and utility bills that Yakov pays. => Explicit costs

•The salary Yakov could earn if he worked as a paralegal.=>Implicit Costs

•The wholesale cost for the pianos that Yakov pays the manufacturer. => Explicit costs

•The rental income Yakov could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom =>Implicit Costs

2) Yakov's accounting and economic profit of his piano business.

Profit($)

Acct Profit.......... Economic Profit

$14,000. .............. -$9,000 (loss)

•Yakov's accounting profit will be his revenue - explicit costs.

Therefore accounting profit=

$704,000 - ($404,000 - $286,000) = $14,000

• Yakov's economic profit will be (accounting profit - (rent + forgone salary)

Therefore, accounting profit =

$14,000 - ($3,000+$20,000) = -$9,000

Which of the following is a risk (or potential pitfall) of cost leadership? Multiple Choice a. Cost differences increase as the
musickatia [10]

Answer:

d. Cost cutting in one area of the value chain might increase costs in another.  

Explanation:

Although cost leadership is an efficient way to dominate the competition,it does have potential pitfalls if not executed correctly. For example, if operating cost is decreased, the changed product feature may imply a higher marketing cost afterward. In order to be truly efficient, the cost leadership strategy has to be implemented in such a way, so it doesn't impact other value chain costs negatively (increasing them).

A company manufactures three products, A, B, and C. The following information is available about the products on a per unit basi
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Hi the demand for each  product for this question is missing, however, i have provided step by step approach to solving the problem below .

Explanation:

First Calculate the contribution per unit of each product

                                                        A                           B                            C

Sales price                                  $65.50                $57.50                  $75.25

Less Total variable cost            ($28.85)              ($26.50)                ($38.95 )

Less Direct material cost            ($11.25)                ($8.90)                 ($22.75)

Contribution                                $25.40                 $22.10                   $13.25

Calculate the contribution per limiting factor of each product and rank the products

<em>contribution per limiting factor = contribution per unit ÷ quantity per limiting factor per unit</em>

                                                        A                           B                            C

Contribution                                $25.40                 $22.10                   $13.25

Quantity of limiting factor             4.65                      6.3                          5.9

Contribution per limiting factor   5.46                      3.51                        2.25

Ranking                                            1                           2                             3

Allocate the limiting factor according to the limiting factor

The company will on produce Product A as this is the most profitable.

Contribution =  $25.40

The company is in the process of preparing a cash budget and must determine the expected cash collections by month. To this end,
nydimaria [60]

Answer: $186,000

Explanation:

January is the 2nd month from November which means that all of November's $31,000 will be collected in January.

January is the first month after December so 30% of December sales should be collected in January. 50% has already been collected in December and this left $50,000.

Total credit sales in December must have been:

= 50,000 / 50%

= $100,000

Amount to be collected in January for December:

= 100,000 * 30%

= $30,000

Amount to be collected from January credit sales:

= 50% * 150,000

= $75,000

January cash sales = $50,000

Total cash in January :

= 31,000 + 30,000 + 75,000 + 50,000

= $186,000
