Answer:
At Yield to maturity = 11%
Price = $1,000
Explanation:
As for the provided information we have:
Par value = $1,000
Interest each year = $1,000
11% = $110
Effective interest rate semiannually = 11%/2 = 5.5% = 0.055
Since it is paid semiannually, interest for each single payment = $110
0.5 = $55 for each payment.
Time = 8 years, again for this since payments are semi annual, effective duration = 16
Price of the bond = 
Here, C = Coupon payment = $55
i = 0.055
n = Time period = 16
M = Maturity value = Par value = $1,000
Therefore, if yield to maturity = 11% then,
P = 
= $1,000
Answer:
Different aspects to be considered:
First of all, the steakhouse probably has the most clients between 6 to 8 PM, that is why discounts are not offered during that time.
Second, the discount is offered to only a certain group, employees of other stores, because it is a promotional strategy aimed at increasing the number of clients during slow hours. Since this is a fancy place, it is probably expensive also. Most employees would not actually eat there except on a special event, e.g. birthday or anniversary dinner. Even with the 20% discount, not many of them will actually eat there.
This is something nice to offer, since a shopping mall is a close environment where a lot of different people work together, even if very few will actually take the offer. It is normal that different stores have distinct promotions for the employees that work there. It is similar to offering perks that help create a better working environment between the employees of different stores.
Answer:
Real GDP will rise by $100 million
Explanation:
Aggregate Demand [AD] is total amount of goods & services, all sectors of an economy are planning to buy . So AD = Aggregate Planned Expenditure [APE]
Aggregate Supply [AS] is total amount of goods & services, all sellers are planning to sell. As total output value of goods & services produced is distributed among factors of production, AS = National Income [NY] = GDP
At equilibrium : AD or APE = AS or NY or GDP
If AD or APE increases by $100 million :
AD or APE > AS or Aggregate Planned Production or GDP . This implies willingess to buy > willingness to produce. So, inventory levels will fall below desired level. To mantain inventory level, production [AS] & income level [GDP] will rise till it becomes equal to risen AD or APE
So, GDP will also rise by $100 million
Answer: $107,500
Explanation:
There is an "Exclusion of gain on sale of home" provision by the IRS that allows for a single tax payer to exclude up to $250,000 from the sale of their primary home. A home qualifies as primary if the owner has lived in it for 2 years or more so Steve's home here is a primary home.
The gain he received was:
= 705,000 - 347,500
= $357,500
From this gain, $250,000 can be excluded so total gain recognized:
= 357,500 - 250,000
= $107,500
Answer:
1) Colt Carriage Company
Income Statement
For the month ended April 202x
Revenues:
- Adults passengers $186,300
- Children $81,000
- Total revenues $267,300
Variable costs:
- City fees $26,730
- Souvenirs $7,425
- Brokerage fees $11,340
- Carriage drivers $52,650

- Horse leases $48,000
- Marketing expenses $7,350
- Payroll expenses $7,600
- Total period costs <u>$65,850</u>
Operating profit $103,305
2) If the total amount of passengers increase by 10%, then all variable costs will increase by 10% except brokerage fees which would increase only by 6%. Revenues should also increase by 10%. Period costs should not change.
Contribution margin should increase by 10.29% and operating profit would increase by 16.81%.
