Answer:

Decrease in price of the bond by 16.01%

Explanation:

Find the price of the bond with the two different YTMs and compare the two prices;

<u>a.) at 7% YTM and semi-annual coupons</u>

N = 12*2 = 24

I/Y = 7%/2 = 3.5%

FV = 1,000 (use 1000 as FV if not given)

PMT = (4%/2)*1000 = 20

PV = $759.12

b.) <u>at 7% YTM and semi-annual coupons</u>

N  = 24

I/Y = (7%+2%)/2 = 4.5%

FV = 1,000 (use 1000 as FV if not given)

PMT = (4%/2)*1000 = 20

PV = $637.61

Percentage change in price = [($637.61 - $759.12)/$759.12] *100

Percentage change in price = -16.01%

There is a decrease in price of the bond by 16.01%

sdas [7]

Answer:                        

Explanation:

1.                                     Jasper Company

                                      Income Statement

                                                                                         

            Sales (280000 x $12)                                  $3360000

            <u>Less: Cost of goods sold</u>

            Add: Direct Material                   $180000

            Add: Direct Labor                       $505000

            Add: Manufacturing Overhead  <u>$110000</u>

            Cost of goods sold                                      <u>($795000)</u>

            Gross Profit                                                  $ 2565000

           <u>Less: Expenses</u>

           Selling expense                           $437000

           Administrative expense              <u>$854000</u>

          Total expenses                                               <u>($1291000)</u>

          Net income                                                     <u> $1274000</u>

Percentage of sales for each line item

Sales = 100%

Cost of goods sold: \frac{795000}{3360000} x 100= 23.7%

Selling expense : \frac{437000}{3360000} x 100 = 13%

Administrative expense: \frac{854000}{3360000} x 100 = 25.4 %

2. According to the income statement in requirement 1, the manager can control cost by outsourcing the product if it is cheaper to get it from a third party in order to cut/control cost of goods sold.

Manager can also try controlling the administrative expenses as they are taking a bigger proportion than any other cost/ expense.

salantis [7]

The factors are: Lack of experience, Economic depression,  Inappropriate comments or behaviour in the interview, Poor use of English language,and  low cognitive skills

Tennyson honors a military unit's bravery for charging the enemy despite insurmountable odds: they are "six hundred" against an "army."

Hence the appropriate answer is Bravery.

On the basis of the research it has gathered on consumer perceptions, the tests it has conducted, and competitive considerations
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

1) the product launch.

Explanation:

As the product in consideration is new, and that the company performs the analysis of customer demands and needs for the product to be introduced, also the company defines the target market for its product, this conclusively reflects that the company wants to launch a new product.

Since it is a preliminary activity basically analyzing market before launch of product, there are no results therefore there is no evaluation of results.

Further there is a market testing, not for the entire company products, but only for the new product thus, it can not be termed as pre-market demonstrations.
