A corporate bond with a 6.5 percent coupon has 15 years left to maturity. It has had a credit rating of BBB and a yield to matur

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Price change in dollars = $104.22

% decrease in price of dollars = 11.13%

Explanation:

We assume the corporate bond have a face value of $1,000

Face Value = $1000

Coupon = 6.5%*1000/2 =32.50

Number of Periods = 15*2 =30

Semi annual rate of BBB bond = 7.2%/2 =3.6%

Price of BBB Bond = PV of Coupons + PV of Par Value =

Price of BBB Bond = 32.50*(((1-(1+3.6%)^-30)/3.6%)+1000/(1+3.6%)^30

Price of BBB Bond = $936.43

Semiannual Discount Rate for BB bond = 8.5%/2 = 4.25%

Price of BB Bond = PV of Coupons + PV of Par Value

Price of BB Bond = 32.50*(((1-(1+4.25%)^-30)/4.25%)+1000/(1+4.25%)^30

Price of BB Bond= $832.21

Price change in dollars = $936.43 - $832.21

Price change in dollars = $104.22

% decrease in price of dollars = $104.22 / $936.43

% decrease in price of dollars = 0.111295025

% decrease in price of dollars = 11.13%

Explanation:

PREP method is demonstrated as the effective method or approach of presentation or speech that consists of four steps: 'P stands for 'point'(statement of claim), 'R stands for 'reasons'(explanation of the point), 'E stands for 'examples or evidence'(to support the claim), and lastly, 'P stands for point('justification and restatement of the claim').

According to this method, option A i.e. 'She cites a personal services company in another city that increased its business by adding dog walking to its services' reflects the third step that Khandi uses for her presentation. This citation would not only support her claim but also establish the credibility of her claim while the next step would prove how her claim is justified. Thus, option A is the correct answer.

sergeinik [125]

Depreciation rate= 1/5 = 0.2 or 20% per year

Finally, the units of production depreciation for the first year:

Annual depreciation= [(original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production in copies]*number of copies

Annual depreciation= (48,000/1,000,000)*240,000

Annual depreciation= 0.048*240,000

Annual depreciation= $11,520
