grigory [225]

Answer:

A. $119,000

B. 10%

C.$11,900

Explanation:

Deprecation is a method used in expensing the cost of an asset.

The depreciable cost = Cost of asset - Salvage value = $123,800 - $4,800 = $119,000

The straight line rate = 1/10= 0.1 = 10%

annual straight-line depreciation = depreciable cost × straight line rate = $119,000 × 0.1 = $11,900

Stech Co. is issuing $9 million 12% bonds in a private placement on July 1, 2017. Each $1,000 bond pays interest semi-annually o

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Expected selling price =$ 1,271.81

Explanation:

The price of a bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash inflows expected from the bond discounted using the yield to maturity.

These cash flows include interest payment and redemption value

The price of the bond can be calculated as follows:

Step 1

PV of interest payment

coupon rate - 12%, yield - 8%, years to maturity- 10 years

Semi-annual coupon rate = 12%/2 = 6%

Semi-annual Interest payment =( 6%×$1000)= $60

Semi annual yield = 8%/2 = 4%

PV of interest payment

= A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

A- interest payment, r- yield - 4%, n- no of periods- 2 × 10 = 20periods

= 60× (1-(1.04)^(-10×2))/0.04)

= 60× 13.59032634

=$815.41

Step 2

PV of redemption value (RV)

PV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)

RV - redemption value- $1000, n- 2×10 r- 4%

= 1,000 × (1+0.04)^(-2×10)

= $456.38

Step 3

Price of bond = PV of interest payment + PV of RV

= $815.41 + $456.38

= $ 1,271.81

Expected selling price =$ 1,271.81
