Answer:

current yield 8.2089552%

YTM = 8.05%

effective annual yield = 4.92%

Explanation:

(A)

current yield = C/P

coupon payment / market price

8.8/107.2 = 0.082089552 = 8.2089552%

(B)

P = \frac{C}{2} \times\frac{1-(1+YTM/2)^{-2t} }{YTM/2} + \frac{CP}{(1+YTM/2)^{2t}}

First par being the present value of the coupon payment and second the redeem of the face value at the end of the bond.

market price 107.2

face value 100

time = 19

rate 8.8%

C = annual coupon payment 100 x 8.8% = 8.8

You solve this using a financial calculation and get the semiannual rate

YTM/2 = 0.040268160

then multiply by 2 to get the annual YTM

0.040268160  x 2 =

YTM = 0.08053632 = 8.05%

(C)

Effective Annual Yield

(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY

where:

Holding period return:

\frac{Net \: Return}{Investment} = HPR

In this case:

coupon payment + redem - investment = net return

8.8 * 19 + 100 - 107.2 = 160

160/107.2 = 1.492537313

Then

(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY

(1+1.142537313)^{\frac{365}{19\times365}} -1 = EAY

EAY = 0.049242509 = 4.9242509%

Suppose the economy only produces three goods: bread, laptops, and movies. Calculate the CPI of 2008, using 2004 as the base yea
arsen [322]

Answer:

Most of the question is missing, so I looked for a similar one and found the attached image.

CPI = (current year price × base year quantity) / (base year price × Base year quantity)

CPI for bread in current year = [($1.50 × 2,000) / ($1 × 2,000)] x 100 = 150

CPI for laptops in current year = [($1,500 × 100) / ($2,000 × 100)] x 100 = 75

CPI for movies in current year = [($7 × 50) / ($5 × 50)] x 100 = 140

CPI for current year = (CPI for bread x weight of bread) + (CPI of laptops x weight of laptops) + (CPI of movies x weight of movies) = (150 x $2,250/$227,530) + (75 x$225,000/$227,530) + (140 x $280/$227,530) = 1.48 + 74.17 + 0.17 =75.82

Assume that the risk-free rate is 6% and the market risk premium is 8%.
valkas [14]

Answer:

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%

Explanation:

Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.  

The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rpM is the market risk premium

Under CAPM, the assumption follows that the beta of the market is always equal to 1.

So, expected return on the stock market will be,

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.06 + 1 * 0.08

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%

The beta of the stock is given. We calculate the required rate of return on the stock to be,

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.06 + 1.9 * 0.08

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%

nder the general transfer pricing rule with excess capacity, the opportunity cost would be equal: Multiple Choice zero. the dire
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

ZERO.

Explanation:

A transfer price normally is used to determine the cost to charge another division, subsidiary, or holding company for services rendered. It is said that transfer prices are priced based on the going market price for that good or service. Transfer pricing can also be applied to intellectual property such as research, patents, and royalties.

However, companies at times can also use (or misuse) this practice by altering their taxable income, thus reducing their overall taxes. The transfer pricing mechanism is a way that companies can shift tax liabilities to low-cost tax jurisdictions.

g Cathy Rogers deposits $200 in currency in her checking account at a bank. This deposit is treated as:
Step2247 [10]

Answer: 4) No change in the money supply because the $200 in currency has been converted to a $200 increase in checkable deposits

Explanation:

The money supply refers to the total amount of money currently in circulation. In this instance it remains the same because no new money was introduced into the economy.

All that has happened is that Ms. Rogers took her $200 which was already in circulation and part of money supply and deposited it in her checking account. The money is therefore still in circulation, just not in immediate cash.

Money supply therefore remains the same.
