A Japanese company has a bond outstanding that sells for 90 percent of its ¥100,000 par value. The bond has a coupon rate of 5.7
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The yield to maturity of this bond is 6.55%

Explanation:

Yield to maturity is the rate of expected return on a bond which is held until the maturity. It is considered as a long term return and expressed in annual terms.  

According to given data

Coupon payment = C = 100,000 x 5.7% = $5,700

Face value = F = 100,000

Price  = P = 100,000 x 90% = 90,000

Number of year to mature = 19

Use following formula yo calculate YTM

Yield to maturity = [ C + ( F-P)/n ] / [ (F+P)/2 ]

Yield to maturity = [ $5,700 + (100,000-90,000)/19 ] / [ (100,000+90,000)/2 ]

Yield to maturity = 6,226.32 / 95,000 = 0.0655 = 6.55%

Red Line, Inc. has a cash balance of $80,000, short-term investments of $20,000, net receivables of $60,000, and inventory of $4
baherus [9]

Answer: 0.80:1

Explanation:

Given that,

Cash balance = $80,000

Short-term investments = $20,000

Net receivables = $60,000

Inventory = $450,000

Current liabilities total = $200,000

Quick assets = Cash balance + Short-term investments + Net receivables

= $80,000 + $20,000 + $60,000

= $160,000

Red Line’s quick ratio = \frac{Quick\ Assets}{Current\ Liabilities}

= \frac{160000}{200,000}

= 0.80 : 1
