Answer:

The appropriated answer will be "$1,700,000".

Explanation:

Revenue understood by completion percentage = Design balance throughout progress = $200,000

The percentage completion throughout the whole year will be:

⇒  \frac{200,000}{2,000,000 }

⇒  10 \ percent

The cost incurred throughout the whole year will be:

⇒  Revenue \ recognized - Income \ on \ the \ contract

⇒  200,000 - 30,000

⇒  170,000 ($)

Now,

The total estimated cost of the project at the end the year 2021 will be:

⇒  \frac{170,000}{10 \ percent}

⇒  1,700,000 ($)

Answer:

b. the difference between Solomon's contract price and the amount paid by Renny

Explanation:

Neal sues Solomon for damages as Solomon breaches his contract with Neal to purchase the 500 pairs of socks from him. Although he can sell the 500 pairs to Renny even then he was in loss only as he sells socks to Renny at a lower amount then it's actual cost.

In this case, Neal will be able to recover the difference between Solomon's contract price and the amount paid by Renny.

Answer:

C) the costs and benefits of retaining a nonproductive employee.

Explanation:

The utilitarian approach weighs actions in terms of the benefits received over the costs of carrying them out. It is the basis for the cost-benefit analysis, where an idea, activity or investment is good only if the benefits it generates offset the costs of carrying it out. The goal of the utilitarian approach is to maximize the benefits received while minimizing the costs.

Both Bond Bill and Bond Ted have 10.4 percent coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond Bill has 5 ye
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Ans,

a) If interest rates suddenly rise by 3 percent, Bill´s bond would drop by -20.02%  and Ted´s bond would go down by -36.07%

.

b) If rates were to suddenly fall by 3 percent, Bill´s bond would rise by 26.79%

and Ted´s bond would rise too by 86.47%

.

Explanation:

Hi, first let´s go ahead and establish the stable scenario, for that we are going to use the information of the problem but we need to add the discount rate of the bond or yield, which is the missing information. All this so this concept can be explained in a better way, so for this example we´ll say that the yield of both bonds is 10% compounded semi-annually, the same units as the coupon. Now we have to use the following formula.

Price=\frac{Coupon((1+Yield)^{n}-1) }{Yield(1+Yield)^{n} } +\frac{FaceValue}{(1+Yield)^{n} }

Where:

Coupon = (%Coupon/2)*FaceValue= (0.104/2)*1,000=52

Yield = we are going to assume 10% annual, that is 5% semi-annual

n = Payment periods (For Bill n=5*2=10, for Ted, n=22*2=44)

So, let´s see what is the price of each bond if the yield was 10% annual compounded semi-annually.

Price(Bill)=\frac{52((1+0.05)^{10}-1) }{0.05(1+0.05)^{10} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.05)^{10} } =1,015.44

In Ted´s case, that is:

Price(Ted)=\frac{52((1+0.05)^{44}-1) }{0.05(1+0.05)^{44} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.05)^{44} } = 1,035.33

Now, if the interest rate (Yield) suddenly goes up by 3%, this is what happens to Bill´s Bond

Price(Bill)=\frac{52((1+0.08)^{10}-1) }{0.08(1+0.08)^{10} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.08)^{10} } = 812.12

If yield goes down by 3%, this is the new price of Bill´s bond.

Price(Bill)=\frac{52((1+0.02)^{10}-1) }{0.02(1+0.02)^{10} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.02)^{10} } =  1,287.44

Now, in the case of Ted, this is what happens to the price if the yield goes up.

Price(Ted)=\frac{52((1+0.08)^{44}-1) }{0.08(1+0.08)^{44} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.08)^{44} } =  661.84

If it goes down by 3%, this would be the price for Ted´s bond.

Price(Ted)=\frac{52((1+0.02)^{44}-1) }{0.02(1+0.02)^{44} } +\frac{1,000}{(1+0.02)^{44} } =   1,930.56

Now, in percentage, what we need to use is the following formula.

Change=\frac{(VariationValue-BaseValue)}{BaseValue} x100

For example, in the case of Bill´s bond, which yield went up by 3%, this is what we should do.

Change=\frac{(812.12-1,015.44)}{1,015.44} x100=-20.02Percent

So, the price variation is -20.02% if the yield rises by 3%.

This are the results of the prices and calculations for you to answer this question. Best of luck.

                         Bill        Ted                       % (Bill)       %(Ted)

Base Price     $1,015.44    $1,035.33    

(+) 3% Yield  $812.12          $661.84      -20.02%          -36.07%

(-) 3% Yield  $1,287.44     $1,930.56       26.79%            86.47%

British government 3.3% perpetuities pay £3.3 interest at the end of each year forever. Another bond, 1.8% perpetuities, pays £1
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Perpetuity is a time value of money concept where cashflows occur indefinitely; the recurring payments go on forever.

The formula for finding the present value of these perpetually recurring cashflows is as follows;

PV = CF/ r

whereby,

CF = Cashflow = £3.3

r = rate = 3.3% or 0.033 as a decimal

so PV = 3.3 / 0.033

PV = £100.00

If the rate is 1.80% or 0.018 and recurring CF is £1.80, then PV would be;

PV = 1.80 / 0.018

PV = £100.00
