Answer:

Explanation:

exponential smoothing alpha = 0.5

formula = Previous demand x Alpha + previous forecast x (1 - alpha)

26   32   40   27    30

26  26  29  34.5  30.75

week 2 forecast

26x0.5 + 26x0.5 = 26.

week 3 forecast

32x0.5 + 26x0.5 = 29

use the same procedure for week 4 and week 5

week 6

30x0.5 + 30.75x0.5 = 30.375

Demand Forecast for week 6 = 30.38

A $1000 bond with a coupon rate of 6.2% paid semiannually has eight years to maturity and a yield to maturity of 8.3%. If intere
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The price of the bond will be $879

Explanation:

Price of the bond is the present value of all cash flows of the bond. Price of the bond is calculated by following formula:

According to given data

Coupon payment = C = $1,000 x 6.2 = $62 annually = $31 semiannually

Number of periods = n = 2 x 8 years = 16 periods

Current Yield = r = 8.3% / 2  = 4.15% semiannually

Price of the Bond = $31 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 4.15% )^-16 ) / 4.15% ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 4.15% )^16 ]

Price of the Bond = $31 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 0.0415)^-16 ) / 0.0415 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 0.0415 )^16 ]  

Price of the Bond = $31 x [ ( 1 - ( 1.0415)^-16 ) / 0.0415 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1.0415 )^16 ]  

Price of the Bond = $521.74 + $357.26   = $879

nevsk [136]

Answer:

$67.1 million

Explanation:

Given that,

Projected benefit obligation at the beginning of 2021 = $51 million

Service cost = $18 million

Retiree benefits  = $7 million

Projected benefit obligation at December 31, 2021:

= Beginning of 2021 + Service cost + Interest cost - Retiree benefits

= $51 million + $18 million + (10% × $51 million) - $7 million

= $51 million + $18 million + $5.1 million - $7 million

= $67.1 million
