Answer:

The rate of return on the investment is 10.79% per year

Explanation:

The rate of return on the bond can be calculated using the future value formula, which is given as :

FV=PV*(1+r)^N

FV future value is the value of investment at redemption at $25000

PV is the current price of the bond now at $4,850

r is the rate of return on the bond which is unknown

N  is th number of years the bond matures which is 16 years

25000=4,850*(1+r)^16

divide both sides by 4850

(25000/4850)=(1+r)^16

divide the exponential on both sides by 16

(25000/4850)^1/16=1+r

1.107930178 =1+r

r=1.107930178 -1

r=0.10793

r=10.79%

A manufacturing company that produces a single product has provided the following data concerning its most recent month of opera
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

$71,240

Explanation:

The computation of the total gross margin under absorption costing is shown below:

As we know that

Gross Margin = Sales - Variable Manufacturing Cost - Fixed Manufacturing Overhead For Units Sold

Sales (2,740 units × $131) $358,940

Less Manufacturing Costs  

Direct Materials (2,740 units × $44) $120,560

Direct Labor (2,740 units × $19) $52,060

Variable Manufacturing Overhead (2,740 units × $13) $35,620

Fixed Manufacturing Overhead ($85,260 ÷ 2,740 units ÷ 2,940 units) $79,460

Gross Margin                         $71,240

We simply applied the above formula

Four companies computed their days' sales in inventory as follows: Company A: 47.2 Company B: 36.5 Company C: 45.1 Company D: 39
Leviafan [203]

The most efficient and effective in managing its inventory is Company B.

<h3>Who is the most efficient?</h3>

The days' sales in inventory  is a financial ratio that measures the rate at which a firm is able to sell its inventory in a given year. The lower the ratio, the more efficient a firm is in selling its inventory.

Days' sales in inventory = number of days in a period / inventory turnover

Inventory turnover =  cost of goods sold / average inventory

Dirty Don's Bicycle Shop is current financed with 100% equity. The firm currently has 100,000 shares of common stock outstanding
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Number of bonds to raise = 2250

Explanation:

given data

current financed = 100% equity

common stock outstanding = 100,000 shares

selling = $50 per share

debt = 45%

equity =55%

par value of a bond = $1,000

to find out

How many bonds would Don have to sell at par value

solution

we get here first the value of equity that is express as

value of equity = Number of shares × Price per share .................1

put here value

value of equity = 100,000 × $50

value of equity = $5,000,000

and

financed with bonds = 45 % of value of equity

financed with bonds = 45 % × $5,000,000

financed with bonds = $2,250,000

so

Number of bonds to raise is express as

Number of bonds to raise = \frac{2,250,000}{1000}

Number of bonds to raise = 2250
