Answer:

The Big Five

Explanation:

The Big Five personality dimension can explain the personality traits needed for specific job positions. The five traits are: neuroticism, agreeableness, extraversion, conscientiousness, and Openness.

An accounting manager should score high on conscientiousness because accounting requires a great degree of attention to detail and putting long hours working on difficult activities.

A director of graphic arts should score high on openness because this trait is related to creativity, and a graphic art director should be above all a creative person able to develop his own artistic expression that at the same time benefits the company.

Basic bond valuation Complex Systems has an outstanding issue of ​$1 comma 000​-par-value bonds with a 16​% coupon interest rate
salantis [7]

Answer:

a. Complex Systems' bond price​ today = $1,476.36

Explanation:

a. If bonds of similar risk are currently earning a rate of return of 9​%, how much should the Complex Systems bond sell for​ today?

This can be calculated by adding the Present Value of Coupons and the Present Value of Par Value as follows:

<u>Calculation of Present Value of Coupons</u>

The present of coupons is calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

Present value of coupons = C × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + r)]^n} ÷ r] …………………………………. (1)

Where;

C = Annual coupon amount = Par value * Coupon rate = $1,000 * 16% = $160

r = required rate of return or return of similar risk = 9%, or 0.09

n = number of years = 11

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

Present value of coupons = $160 × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.09)]^11} ÷ 0.09] = $1,088.83

<u>Calculation of Present Par of Value</u>

To calculate this, we use the present value formula as follows:

Present Value of Par Value = Par value / (1 + r)^n

Since Par Value is $1000 and r and n are as already given above, we have:

Present value of Par Value = $1,000 / (1 + 0.09)^11 = $387.53

Therefore, we have:

Complex Systems' bond price​ today = Present value of coupons + Present value of Par Value = $1,088.83 + $387.53 = $1,476.36

b. Describe the two possible reasons why the rate on​ similar-risk bonds is below the coupon interest rate on the Complex Systems bond.

The following are the possible two reasons:

1. Interest may vary bust the coupon is fixed. What can cause the interest rate to vary is the bond rating by rating agency. But his will not affect the coupon rate which is fixed. When the rating is high, the interest will be low. But when the rating is low, the interest will be high. This indicates a negative relationship between the rating and the interest rate.

2. The level of demand may also influence the interest rate to change. When the demand is high, the interest will be low. But when the demand is low, the interest will be high. This also indicates a negative relationship between the demand and the interest rate.

c. If the required return were at 16​% instead of 9​%, what would the current value of Complex​ Systems' bond​ be? Contrast this finding with your findings in part a and discuss.

To do this, we simply change he required return to 16% (or 0.16) in part a and proceed as follows:

Present value of coupons at 16% = $160 × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.16)]^11} ÷ 0.016] = $804.58

Present value of Par Value at 16% = $1,000 / (1 + 0.16)^11 = $195.42

Complex Systems' bond price​ today at 16% = $804.58 + $195.42 = $1,000.00

Comparing part c result with part a result shows that if the coupon rate is greater than the required rate of return, the bond is sold at a premium. That is, price of bond will be more than par. As it can be seen in part a, the price of bond is $1,476.36 when the coupon rate of 16% is greater than the required return of 9%.

Also, the bond will be sold at par when the coupon rate and require return are equal. This is shown in part c where the bond is sold at $1,000 when both coupon rate and required return rate are equal to 16%.

By implication, we can also infer without doing any calculation that the bond will be sold at a discount if the coupon rate is less than the required rate of return.

You are sitting around the fire at a lodge in Dillingham, Alaska, discussing a fishing expedition you are planning with your col
maw [93]

Solution :

Risk management first involves the identification of the potential risk that may be involved. It should focus both on the objectives as well as events that could cause the consequences.

Some of the major risks that can be involved are :

• sudden weather conditions which may not support the flight travel.

• Embargo on fishing by the State or local authority suddenly

• any kind of physical injury to the members of the group

• there may be forest fire around the lake

• technical error that might occur during the course of adventures

The impact for the risk that includes the majuere risk will be very high for all the parameters that can increase the cost by 40%, it can also lead to increase in time by about 20% which can cancel the expedition. . These types of risk will not be covered under any scope.

For the physical risk, the impact will be moderate for the parameters.

Auto Shoppe is considering the purchase of a new engine computer code reader for $30,000. Auto Shoppe can charge $50 for the ser
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Auto Shoppe

For Auto Shoppe to just break-even when it reads the codes from 200 car engines, it would charge $160 for the service of reading each car engine.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Fixed cost of new engine computer code reader = $30,000

Service charge for reading the code from a single car engine = $50

Variable cost of reading per car engine = $10

Number of engines to read their codes = 200

To break-even, total costs must equal total revenue

Total costs = Fixed costs + Variable costs

= $30,000 + $10 * 200

= $32,000

Therefore, revenue should be equal to $32,000

The amount to charge in order to break-even is:

= $160 ($32,000/200)

b) This implies that to break-even at $50 selling price, the number of engines should be increased to 750 ($30,000/$40).  This is because the contribution margin per unit = $40 ($50 - $10) and the fixed costs = $30,000.
