Answer:

Current bond price  is $891.74

Explanation:

Coupon rate: 7%

Tenor (Nper): 13 years

Par value: $1,000

YTM (discounting rate): 8.4%

Coupon received annually (PMT) = $1,000 * 7% = $70

Current bond price  = present value of coupon received annually + present value of bond

To calculate PV of coupon received, we use excel in formula PV(discounting rate ,Nper,- PMT) = PV(8.4%,13,-70) = $541.30

or calculate manually = 70/(1+8.4%)^13+70/(1+8.4%)^12+…..+70/(1+8.4%)^1 =  $541.30

present value of bond = 1000/(1+8.4%)^13 = $350.44

Current bond price   = $541.30 + $350.44 = $891.74

Assume the demand function for basketballs is given by QD = 150 −3P + 0.1I, where P = price of a basketball, and I = average inc
TEA [102]

Answer: (1) Equilibrium price = 60 and Equilibrium quantity = 120, when I = $1500.

(2)  Equilibrium price = 54 and Equilibrium quantity = 108, when I = $1200.

Explanation:

(1) When Average income (I) = $1500

At equilibrium, QD = QS

150 - 3p + 0.1I = 2p

150 - 3p + 0.1 × 1500 = 2p

5p = 300

p = \frac{300}{5}

p = 60

q = 2p ⇒ 2 × 60 = 120

Hence, p and q are equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity, respectively.

(2) If 20% income tax is introduced then Average income (I) = $1500 - 20% of  $1500 ⇒ $1500 - $300 = $1200

At equilibrium, QD = QS

150 - 3p + 0.1I = 2p

150 - 3p + 0.1 × 1200 = 2p

5p = 270

p = \frac{270}{5}

p = 54

q = 2p ⇒ 2 × 54 = 108

Hence, p and q are equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity, respectively.

Property rights are theoretical elements in economics for determining how a resource is used and owned. Resources can be
Kobotan [32]

There are four parts to property rights are namely the right to use the good, the right  to transfer the good to others, the right to enforcement of property rights, and the right to earn income from the good .

Option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

Property rights are abstract and legally regulated legal buildings for deciding which property or economic goods are used and held. Property rights may be owned by (and therefore belong to) individuals, organizations, collectives. This characteristic comprises four wide elements and is frequently called a bundle of rights.

  1. The right to make use of the good
  2. The right to earn an income from the good
  3. The right to transfer the good to someone else, change it, give up it or destroy it (the right to cease ownership)  
  4. The right to implement property rights.

Throughout economics, the land is normally considered to be owned by an asset or good (rights on the income obtained from property). In fact, several economists argue that ownership rights must be fixed and relations between other parties represented in order to be more efficient .

Socks unlimited produces sport socks. the company has fixed expenses of $ 85 comma 000 and variable expenses of $ 1.20 per packa
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Contribution margin per unit = Sales price per unit – Variable cost per unit

$2 - $1.20=$0.80

The contribution margin per package is $ 0.80.

Breakeven sales in units = Fixed expenses + Operating income ) / Contribution margin per unit $85,000 + $22,000/0.80 = 133,750 packages

Contribution margin per package = $2 - $1.00 = $1.00

Breakeven sales in units = Fixed expenses + Operating income ) / Contribution margin per unit

$100,000 + $22,000/$1= 122,000 packages

The firm will have to sell 122,000 packages to generate $22,000 of operating income. Socks unlimited would have to sell 11,750 less packages of socks to earn $22,000 of operating income. The increase in fixed costs was completely offset by the decrease in variable costs at the prior target profit volume of sales. Therefore, the firm will need to sell less units in order to achieve its target profit level.
