Nataliya [291]

Answer:

794 composite units.

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the firm's break-even point in composite units

First step

Contribution Margin per Composite Unit:

Youth model $700

($140× sales mix of 5 )

Adult model model $4,365

($485× sales mix of 9)

Recreational model $3,210

( $535 × sales mix of 6 )

Contribution Margin per Composite Unit=8,275

($700+$4,365+$3,210)

Now let determine the Break-even Sales in Composite Units using this formula

Break-even Sales in Composite Units = Total Fixed Costs/Contribution Margin per Composite Unit

Let plug in the formula

Break-even Sales in Composite Units = $6,570,000/$8,275

Break-even Sales in Composite Units = $793.9

Break-even Sales in Composite Units = 794 composite units

Therefore the firm's break-even point in composite units is 794 composite units.

Consider a bond with the following characteristics. Par: $1,000 Two coupon payments per year (i.e., coupons are paid semi-annual

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The new price of the bond is $928.94

Explanation:

Initially the bond's price is equal to its par value which means the coupon rate on bond and the market interest rates are the same i.e. 6%.

Th bond's price is calculated as the sum of the present value of the annuity of interest payments by the bond and the present value of the face value of the bond that will be received at maturity. The discount rate used to calculate the present values is the market interest rate.

As the bond is a semiannual bond, we will use the semi annual coupon payment, the semi annual percentage of the annual rate of interest on market and the number of semi annual periods outstanding.

Semi annual coupon payment = 1000 * 0.06 * 6/12 = $30

Number of semiannual periods till maturity = 10 * 2 = 20 periods

New market interest rate = 6 + 1 = 7% annual

New semi annual market interest rate = 7% / 2 = 3.5%

Price of bond = 30 * [ (1 - (1+0.035)^-20) / 0.035 ] + 1000 / (1+0.035)^20

Price of bond = $928.938 rounded off to $928.94

We used the present value of annuity ordinary formula for preset value of interest payments and the normal present value of principal formula for the face value.

Consider luxury weekend hotel packages in las vegas. When the price is $250, the quantity demanded is 2,000 packages per week. W

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer: Elasticity of luxury weekend hotel packages in las vegas is -1.432.

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in the price of the good.

Mid point method-

$e=\frac{Q2-Q1}{\frac{Q1+Q2}{2} } * \frac{\frac{P1+P2}{2} }{P2-P1}$ $e=\frac{1700-2000}{\frac{2000+1700}{2} } * \frac{\frac{280+250}{2} }{280-250}$

$e=\frac{-300}{1850} } * \frac{265}{30}$

$e= -0.16216*8.8333$

$e= -1.432$

Elasticity of luxury weekend hotel packages in las vegas is -1.432.

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Student responses will vary, but should include: A young investor has years of earning power and can take greater risks because he/she has time to make-up for losses.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The remaining part of the question is:

Which of the following statements are TRUE?

I New issues of Treasury Bills are generally priced at par

II New issues of Treasury Bonds are generally priced at par, or at a slight discount to par

III New issues of Agency Bonds are generally priced at par, or at a slight discount to par

A. I only

B. III only

C. II and III only

D. I, II, III

Correct Answer:

C. II and III only

Explanation:

It is a fact that virtually all new issues of T-Bills are always sold at a discount to par value. These are original issue discount obligations, with the accrued value of the discount being the interest income earned on these securities.

<em>Treasury Bonds and Agency Bonds are issued at par or in most cases at a very slight discount to par, and make periodic interest payments.</em>
