The 5.3 percent bond of Dominic Cyle Parts has a face value of $1,000, a maturity of 12 years, semiannual interest payments, and

givi [52]

Answer:

$936.17

Explanation:

The current market price of the bond = present value of all coupon received + present value of face value on maturity date

The discount rate in all calculation is YTM (6.12%), and its semiannual rate is 3.06%

Coupon to received semiannual = 5.3%/2*$1000= $26.5

We can either calculate PV manually or use formula PV in excel to calculate present value:

<u>Manually:</u>

PV of all coupon received semiannual = 26.5/(1+3.06)^1 + 26.5/(1+3.06)^2....+ 26.5/(1+3.06)^24 = $445.9

PV of of face value on maturity date = 1000/(1+6.12%)^12 = $490.27

<u>In excel:</u>

PV of all coupon received semiannual = PV(3.06%,24,-$26.5) = $445.9

PV of of face value on maturity date = PV(6.12%,12,-$1000) = 1000/(1+6.12%)^12 = $490.27

The current market price of the bond = $445.9 + $490.27 = $936.17

Blake eats two bags of potato chips each day. Blake's hourly wage increases from $9 to $15, and he decides to stop eating generi

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

-4 units

Explanation:

Using the midpoint method, Blake's income elasticity of demand for generic potato chips is given by the change in demand (D) multiplied by his average income (I), divided by the change in income multiplied by the average demand:

$E=\frac{\Delta D}{\Delta I}*\frac{I_{avg}}{D_avg}\\E=\frac{0-2}{15-9}*\frac{\frac{9+15}{2}}{\frac{2+0}{2} }\\E=-4\ units$

Blake's income elasticity of demand is -4 units.

Whats 2/5-3/7= A 1/2 B 5/12 C 14/15 D 29/35

Ivahew [28]

Find common denominators. What you do to the denominator, you do to the numerator.

(2/5)(7/7) = 14/35

(3/7)(5/5) = 15/35

14/35 - 15/35 = -1/35

If you meant to put addition, then your answer will be D) 29/35.

14/35 + 15/35 = 29/35

The distinction between efficiency and equality can be described as follows:

larisa [96]

Answer:

The correct answer is the letter b. Efficiency refers to maximizing the size of the pie; equality refers to distributing the pie fairly among members of society.

Explanation:

Efficiency is about maximizing production while minimizing costs, ie producing as much as possible with available resources. Equality refers to the distribution of production, that is, the division into economically considered fair parts of what was produced among the agents of society. In the example, efficiency would be to produce the largest pie possible given the existing resources. Equality would be the distribution of the pie considered socially fair.
