Answer:

The present value of the par value of the bond is: $22,820.

Explanation:

As the characteristics of the bond, at the end of the bond period, which is 10 year, the bond's issuer will have to repay the face value of the bond to bond's holders. Thus, the future value of the bond = par value of the bond = 50,000.

As the bond pays coupon twice a year during 10 year with the coupon rate of 8% per year. There are 20 compounding periods, and the discount rate is 8%/2 = 4%. Thus, the present value factor of 20 periods at 4% is 0.4564 ( 1 / 1.04^20 ) should be used for calculating the present value of the par value of the bond.

 =>  Present value of the par value of the bond = future value of the bond x present value factor = 50,000 x 0.4564 = $22,820.

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: a passive; active

Explanation:

When a person or institution is said to have a passive asset allocation strategy it means that they either trade the same assets over and over or apply the same weighting to the asset class every time. Stephen only trades medical-related stocks so is using passive allocation.

An active security selection strategy means that the person or institution constantly changes and trades the stocks in their portfolio much like Stephen does when he constantly trades stock. Stephen is therefore using an active security selection strategy.

Holly's ham, inc. sells hams during the major holiday seasons. during the current year 11,000 hams were sold resulting in $220,0
lutik1710 [3]
To find: Breakeven point (in units)  
Given: Number of hams sold = 11000
 Sales revenue = $220,000 
 Variable cost = $55,000
 Fixed cost = $24,000 
 Solution: Break-even point (in units) can be calculated as:-
  Fixed costs / (sales price per unit-variable costs per unit) 
 Fixed costs = $24,000
 Sales price per unit = total sales revenue/number of units = 220000/11000 =
$20
 Variable costs per unit = total variable cost/number of units = 55000/11000 = $5 
 Putting values in the formula, 
 =24000 / (20-5)
 =24000/15
 =1600 
 Breakeven point (in units) = 1600 units
