Answer:

(a) Dollar price of the​ bond = Par value × Current price percentage

                                             = $1,000 × 106.124%

                                             = $1,061.24

(b) Bond's current yield:

Annual interest paid in dollars = Bond par value × Rate of interest

                                                  = $1,000 × 7.8%

                                                  = $78

Current\ yield = \frac{Interest}{Bond\ value}

Current\ yield = \frac{78}{1,061.24}

                              = 0.0734

                              = 7.34%

(c) Issue price of bond is $1,000 and current maturity price is $1,061.24. Thus, bond price is greater than the par value.

(d) Current yield is the return on bond at current price. Yield to maturity is 6.588 % and current yield is 7.34%. Since the current price is more than the par value, therefore, YTM is lower than the current yield.

Strand company is planning to sell 400 buckets and produce 380 buckets during march. each bucket requires 500 grams of plastic a
Alekssandra [29.7K]
Given the data in the problem, we can calculate the cost of production for each bucket:

one bucket requires:

500 grams of plastic and one-half hour of direct labor. 

The plastic costs $10.00 per 500 grams and the employees are paid $15.00 per hour. 

Therefore, one bucket costs (material and labor):

$10.00 + $15.00 * (1/2 hour) = $17.50 per bucket plus (1.10 * $7.50) = $25.75

for 380 buckets :

$25.75 * 380 = $9785

This value only represents the cost of production of 380 buckets for the month of March. <span />

What is the difference between a Republican and Democrat?
Zigmanuir [339]
Republicans and Democrats are both political parties in America. Republicans are mostly made up of the rich, because it supports them. Democrats on the other hand, are made up of the middle to lower classes. In politics you'll hear a lot of "left" and "right." Left thinks your life should be supported by the government, and everything should be regulated by it. Right thinks there should be total self sufficiency in your life, and you should rely on YOU. Most of the time you'll hear leftism associated with communism, since its an extreme form of left-wing politics. And the same with right, but instead fascism, as it is an extreme form of right-wing. But don't associate that with them, but you should keep the extreme forms out of your opinion, just leave it in the back of your mind, and know what they are. Just know to separate Communism from leftism, and Fascism from rightism. Hope this helps!
