Six years ago, James Corporation sold a $100 million bond issue to expand its facilities. Each debenture has a $1,000 par value,

an original maturity of 20 years (there are now 14 years left to maturity), and an annual coupon rate of 11.5% with semiannual payments. If you require a 14% return, what price would you pay today for a James bond?

Answer:

Price of Bonds=$848.286

Explanation:

<em>The value of the bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV) discounted at the yield rate </em>

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV

The value of bond for James Corporation  can be worked out as follows:

Step 1  

PV of interest payments

PV = A × (1+r)^(-n)/r

A- semiannual interest payment, n-number of periods, r- semi annul yield

A-semi- annul interest payment:

=11.5%× 1,000× 1/2 = 75

r-semi-Annual yield = 14%/2 = 7%  

n-Maturity period =1 4 × 2= 28

PV of interest payment:  

=57.5 × (1- (1+0.07)^(-28)/0.07)

= 697.88

Step 2  

PV of Redemption Value

= 1,000 × (1.07)^(-28) = 150.40

Step 3

Price of bond

=697.88 + 150.40

=$848.286

You are considering investing $1,000 in a T-bill that pays 0.05 and a risky portfolio, P, constructed with 2 risky securities, X
Leokris [45]

Answer:

% in T bills = 18.92%, % in P = 81.08%

Explanation:

Portfolio return = Weighted average return

Return of portfolio P = 0.14*0.6 + 0.10*0.4

Return of portfolio P = 0.124

Let % money in T bills be x

0.11 = 0.05*x + 0.124*(1-x)

0.11 = 0.05x + 0.124 - 0.124x

0.014 = 0.074x

x = 18.92%

Hence, % in T bills = 18.92%, % in P = 81.08%

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

(a) 5

(b) $150 million

(c) 45 million

Explanation:

(a) Multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - MPC )

                     = 1 ÷ (1 - 0.8 )

                     = 1 ÷ 0.2

                     = 5 ⇒ the value of the simple multiplier is 5.

b) If the autonomous expenditure is increased by $30 million then the total output will increase by:

= $30 million × 5

= $150 million

c) If the Marginal propensity to import is 0.3 then the import will increase by:

= 150 × 0.3

= 45 million
