Answer:
c. 30 percent lower.
Explanation:
Since the manufacturer is contemplating a switch from buying to producing a certain item while setup cost would be the same as ordering cost, the production rate would be about double the usage rate.
Compared to the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ), the maximum inventory would be approximately 30 percent lower under Economic Production Quantity (EPQ), and higher under EOQ.
I would ask them if they were comfortable with a fluctuating rate, which though at the moment is lower than the fixed rate, could go up in the future. I would also ask them if they needed to be sure of the rate say for example for a 5 year term like in a mortgage for peace of mind or if they are willing to take a risk with the fluctuations. If the latter, I would tell them that at any time they could lock it in for a 5 year term if they saw it going up.

Answer:
Yield to maturity is 1.51%
Explanation:
Zero Coupon rate does not offer any coupon payment and it is issued at deep discount value.
Face value = F = $100
Price = P = $98.50
Year to mature = n = 1 year
Yield to maturity = ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]
Yield to maturity = ( $100 - $98.5 ) / 1 ] / [ ( $100 + $98.5 ) / 2 ]
Yield to maturity = $1.5 / 99.25
Yield to maturity = 0.0151
Yield to maturity = 1.51%
