Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annua

l coupon payments. Suppose a German company issues a bond with a par value of �1,000, 25 years to maturity, and a coupon rate of 7.5 percent paid annually.
If the yield to maturity is 8.6 percent, what is the current price of the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))

Answer:

Bond price=$888.35

Explanation:

<em>The value of the bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV) discounted at the yield rate</em>

<em>Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV</em>

The value of bond for Local School District can be worked out as follows:

Step 1

PV of interest payments

PV = A × (1+r)^(-n)/r

A-annul interest payment:

= 7.5% × 1,000× = 75

r-Annual yield = 8.6%

n-Maturity period = 25  

PV of interest payment:

=75× (1- (1+0.086)^(-25)/0.086)

= 761.22

Step 2

<em>PV of Redemption Value</em>

= 1000 × (1.017)^(-25)

= $127.131

Step 3

<em>Price of bond</em>

=761.222 + 127.13

=$888.35

Which of the following correctly orders the investments from LOWER risk to HIGHER risk?
Yuliya22 [10]
Here is the correct order of investments from Lower Risk to Higher Risk: <span> Treasury bond − Diversified mutual fund – Stock

Treasury bond is released by Government, so unless your country went bankrupt, it is safe to assume that you will get the investment back.

Diversified mutual fund puts your eggs in a lot of baskets So in case one of your investment fail, the others could still support your overall investments

Since the stock is a single entity and really fluctuative, it is considered as the most dangerous type of investment.

Answer:

Yield management pricing

Explanation:

Yield management pricing is the charging of different prices for a given set of capacity at a specific time in order to maximize revenue. This is based on the demand and supply in the market and is very common in industries such as airlines, hotels and resorts. When there is very high demand for airline seats, prices for them are high. However, if some of those passengers decided to refund their tickets, close to departure and the flight would be taking off soon, instead of flying with empty seats and no revenue from them, the airline would decide to sell these same seats at a cheaper rate in order to gain some revenue. This is a form of revenue maximization.

9. Suppose Betty saves $200 each month in her 401(k) account. How much less will her monthly take-home pay be than if she saved
Elenna [48]

Answer:

$160

Explanation:

The way 401(k) savings work is that employees can save from their earnings before tax is deducted, which means that on the $200 saved no tax is deducted, hence, the take of the employee reduces by $200

When there are savings, a tax of 20% would have been deducted from the $200, as a result, the employee would be left with $160($200-($200*20%)), which means that take-home would reduce by $40, the amount tax deducted.

The reduction in take-home=$200-$40

The reduction in take-home=$160

why would it be cheapter to have pullition credits compared to reducing pollution units microeconomics
Katyanochek1 [597]

When Company A stops emitting pollution or lowers air pollution, a pollution credit may be created.

The federal Clean Air Act of 1990 (CAA) gave businesses a mechanism to comply with rules meant to reduce air pollution through the creation of pollution credits. Since 1995, a "cap and trade" system developed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and other states has given utilities and businesses permission to emit a set amount of particular pollutants. While assisting in upholding the requirements necessary to preserve cleaner air, this approach gives businesses considerable flexibility in their compliance. By voluntarily lowering its polluting emissions below the EPA's set limitations, a business can obtain pollution credits. After then, earned credits can either be sold to another business that struggles to keep its emissions within legal bounds or stored for later use.

You own a small manufacturing business that produces widgets. You have spent $150,000 acquiring the fixed assets you need to pro
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

11,538 units

Explanation:

Given that:

Fixed assets = $150,000

Variable cost = $2

Sales price = $15

Break even point = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin

Contribution margin = Sales per unit - Variable cost per unit = $15 - $2 = $13

Break even point (Sales) = $150,000 ÷ $13 = 11,538 units

Therefore, 11,538 widgets must be sold to break even.
