Answer:

Coupon= $30 per period.

20 period for semi annual coupon payment.

28.148% discount rate

Explanation:

1.) Coupon rate * face value of bond = coupon

semi annual rate =6%/2=3%

Coupon= 1000 *3%= $30 per period.

2.) t= number of periods = years of maturity * coupon payment semi-annual

t= 10 * 2 = 20 periods.

3. Discount rate formula =C+[(F-P)/t] / (F+P/2)

where C=coupon payment annual

F= face value of security

P=price of security= 1000 *8%=80

t= years of maturity.

so we have⇒ 60+[(1000-80)/10]/(1000+80)/2

=152/540

=28.148%

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

45

Explanation:

The formula to compute the number of parts is shown below:

= Demand × lead time × (1 + safety factor) ÷ kanban cards

= 300 units × 45 minutes × (1 + 20%) ÷ 6

= 300 × 0.75 hours × 1.2 ÷ 6

= 45

The 45 minutes would be 0.75 hours i.e 45 minutes ÷ 60 minutes = 0.75 hours.

So we consider all the components which are given in the question. Hence, all the information is relevant

What is the simple interest of a loan for $1,000 with 5 percent interest after 3 years?
Alex73 [517]
Simple interest produces interest only over the initial amount.

So every year the interest will be $1000 * 5 / 100 = $50.

That is, after 3 years 3 * $50 = $ 150.

Simple interest does not take into account the reduction of the principal but calculates the interest over the same initial amount, in this case $1000.

So, the answer is $150, which is the result of $50 times 3.

<h2>A control total for hours worked, prepared from time cards collected by the timekeeping department.</h2>

Which of the following statements about Treasury bonds is the most accurate? Treasury bonds are completely riskless. Treasury bo
WARRIOR [948]

Answer: 1. Treasury bonds are not completely riskless, since their prices will decline when interest rates rise.

2. Walmart

3. Corporate bonds

Explanation:

1. Indeed even though Treasury bonds have a very low risk rating, they are not completely risk-less. They have a very low risk rating because they will always be honoured (US T - bonds that is) and so that eliminates the default risk. However, they are still exposed to maturity risk as well as inflation risk for the most part. This means that as interest rates rise therefore, their prices drop making them just a little but risky.

2. Walmart issued the bonds making them the issuer. The rest of the names are Underwriters.

3. Since the bonds were issued by a Corporation being Walmart, the bonds are Corporate Bonds.

Which best explains what a credit score represents?
jeyben [28]

A credit score is a statistical number that depicts a person's creditworthiness. Lenders use a credit score to evaluate the probability that a person repays his debts. Companies generate a credit score for each person with a Social Security number using data from the person's previous credit history. A credit score is a three-digit number ranging from 300 to 850, with 850 as the highest score that a borrower can achieve. The higher the score, the more financially trustworthy a person is considered to be.
