Both Bond Sam and Bond Dave have 7.3 percent coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond Sam has three

Ainat [17]

Answer:

-5.14 for sam

-18.01% for dave

Explanation:

We first calculate for Sam

R = 7.3%

We have 2% increase

= 9.3%

We calculate for present value of coupon and present value at maturity using the formula for present value in the attachment

To get C

1000 x 0.073/2

= 36.5

time= 3 years x 2 times payment = 6

Ytm = rate = 9.3%/2 = 0.0465

Putting values into the formula

36.5[1-(1+0.0465)^-6/0.0465]

= 36.5(1-0.7613/0.0465)

36.5(0.2385/0.0465)

= 36.5 x 5.129

Present value of coupon = 187.20

We solve for maturity

M = 1000

T = 6 months

R = 0.0465

1000/(1+0.0465)⁶

= 1000/1.3135

Present value = 761.32

We add up the value of present value at maturity and that at coupon

761.32 + 187.20

= $948.52

Change in % = 948.52/1000 - 1

= -0.05148

= -5.14 for sam

We calculate for Dave

He has 20 years and payment is two times yearly

= 20x2 = 40

36.5 [1-(1+0.0465)^-40/0.0465]

Present value = 36.5 x 18.014

= 657.511

At maturity,

Present value = 1000/(1+0.0465)⁴⁰

= 1000/6.1598

= 162.34

We add up these present values

= 657.511+162.34 = $819.851

Change = 819.851/1000 -1

= -0.1801

= -18.01%

You purchased five August 13 futures contracts on soybeans at a price quote of 1056′6. Each contract is for 5,000 bushels with t

stira [4]

Answer:

B) $1,187.50

Explanation:

The computation of the total profit or loss on this investment is given below:

Expiration price = 1061'4 = 1061 + 4 ÷ 8 = 1061.50

Quoted price = 1056'6 = 1056 + 6 ÷ 8 = 1056.75

Now the profit is

= (1061.50 - 1056.75) × 5000 × 5

= $1,187.50

Hence, the profit on this investment is $1,187.50

A company purchased a piece of equipment for $50,000 and the equipment has an expected useful life of five years. Its residual v

Simora [160]

Answer:

$12,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Cost of equipment = $50,000

Expected useful life = 5 years

Estimated residual value = $4,000

Depreciation refers to the fall in the value of fixed assets with the passage of time.

Here, we are using double-declining-balance depreciation method,

Firstly, we are calculating the straight line depreciation rate as follows:

= (100% ÷ useful life)

= (100% ÷ 5)

= 20%

So, the double-declining depreciation rate is calculated by multiplying the straight line depreciation rate by 2. It is calculated as follows:

= 2 × straight line depreciation rate

= 2 × 20%

= 40%

First year depreciation is calculated as follows:

= Double-declining depreciation rate × Cost of equipment

= 40% × $50,000

= $20,000

Therefore, the amount of depreciation expense for the second year is calculated as follows:

= Double-declining depreciation rate × (Cost of equipment - First year depreciation)

= 40% × ($50,000 - $20,000)

= 0.4 × $30,000

= $12,000
