Answer:
t = 4.607742347 years rounded off to 4.61 years
Explanation:
To calculate the number of years it will take an investment of $3500 to grow to $5900 at an annual interest rate of 12%, we will use the formula for the future value of cash flows. The formula can be written as follows,
Future value = Present value * (1+i)^t
Where,
- i is the interest rate
- t is the time in years
Plugging in the values for future value, present value and i, we can calculate the t to be,
5900 = 3500 * (1+0.12)^t
5900 / 3500 = (1.12)^t
1.685714286 = 1.12^t
Taking log on both sides.
Ln(1.685714286) / Ln(1.12) = t
t = 4.607742347 years rounded off to 4.61 years
Answer:
unrealized gain from change in market value = $10,617
Explanation:
Bonds carrying value = $739,816
amortization of bond discount = ($739,816 x 6%) - ($800,000 x 5.5%) = $389
amortization of bond discount = ($740,205 x 6%) - ($800,000 x 5.5%) = $412
bond's carrying value = $740,205 + $412 = $740,617
unrealized gain = carrying value - market value = $740,617 - $730,000 = $10,617
Answer:
a) Appeal to the receiver's sense of responsibility and pride in the company's good name
Explanation:
Persuasive messages refer to communicating an idea so as to persuade the recipient towards an action.
Such messages are usually drafted by sales and marketing personnel.

In the given case, Mikhail's claim has already been denied once and he is drafting the second persuasive message. As he expects resistance from the media company, he should draw the attention of the recipient towards their own responsibilities and duties and pride relating to the good reputation of the company.
He may choose to express, what the receiver's responsibility and duties are and how non performance of those puts the company's reputation (pride) at stake.
Answer:The entry to record the sale will include a Credit toPaid in Capital from treasury stock at $4,000.
Explanation:
Journal entry to record sale of shares
Accounts and explanation Debit Credit
Cash $18,000
Treasury stock $14,000
Paid in Capital from Treasury STOCK $4,000
Calculation
CASH = Number of shares x Price per share
= 400 x $45=$18,000
Treasury stock = Number of shares x Price per share
= 400 x $35=$14,000
Paid In Capital = Cash - Treasury stock= $18,000- $14,000= $4000
Answer:
less desirable to other investors
Explanation:
<u>Given</u>: Current fixed coupon rate 5%
Market rate of interest 5%
New Market Rate of Interest 6%
Value of a bond is inversely related to economy interest rate or the yield to maturity (YTM). Value of a bond is expressed by the following equation:
wherein, C = Coupon rate of interest
YTM = Market Rate of Interest or interest rate in the economy or investor's expectation
n= Years to maturity
RV = Redemption value
In the given case, C = YTM i.e par value bond. When ytm rises to 6%, the value of the bond shall fall making such a bond less attractive since it represents lower coupon payments than investor expectations.
Thus, now the bond would be less desirable to other investors.
