A bridge design firm is performing an economic analysis of two mutually exclusive designs for a highway overpass. The steel gird

er option has an initial cost of $2.04 million, and the concrete option has an initial cost of $2.52 million. Every 25 years, the steel bridge must be painted at a cost of $790,000, and all other maintenance costs are the same for both options. The steel bridge is expected to last 50 years, and concrete bridge is expected to last 75 years. Both are assumed to be identically replaced indefinitely. Based on the shortest acceptable analysis period for each option, determine the equivalent uniform annual cost (EUAC) for the best option using an interest rate of 7%. Express your answer in $ to the nearest $1,000.

An annual has 15 years to maturity. It has a coupon rate of 5%, a YTM of 8%. Fill in the cells highlighted in yellow, and aswer
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Market value at 8% YTM  $ 743.2156

at 10% YTM                       $ 619.6960

Explanation:

Assuming the face value is 1,000 as common outstanding American company's bonds:

Market value under the current scenario:

<u>Present value of the coupon payment:</u>

<u />

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

Coupon: $1,000 x 5% =  50

time 15 years

rate 0.08

50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.08)^{-15} }{0.08} = PV\\

PV $427.9739

<u>Present Value of the Maturity</u>

<u />

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity   1,000.00

time   15.00

rate  0.08

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.08)^{15} } = PV  

PV   315.24

PV c $427.9739

PV m  $315.2417

Total $743.2156

If the interest rate in the market increaseby 2% then investor will only trade the bonds to get a yield 2% higher that is 10% so we recalculate the new price:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 50.000

time 15

rate 0.1

50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.1)^{-15} }{0.1} = PV\\

PV $380.3040

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity   1,000.00

time   15.00

rate  0.1

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.1)^{15} } = PV  

PV   239.39

PV c $380.3040

PV m  $239.3920

Total $619.6960

Afina-wow [57]

Similar to a stock split, a stock <u>dividend</u> also distributes additional shares of stock to existing stockholders on a pro rata basis at no cost to the stockholders.

A stock split is a decision made by the board of directors of a firm to issue more shares to present owners in order to increase the number of shares outstanding.

A stock split is a division of issued shares in a ratio determined by the company, whereas a stock dividend is a dividend paid in the form of extra shares. While in a stock split, already issued shares are divided in accordance with a predetermined ratio, a stock dividend gives stockholders extra shares.

While similar in some respects, the key difference between panel data and pooled cross-sectional data is that panel data consist
elixir [45]

Answer:Yes

Explanation:

Pooled data occur when there is a time series of different cross sections with each observations not necessarily from the same unit while Panel data is sample from the same units. The main difference between them is the "units". The units can be countries, households, schools or other things we are collating data on.

In pooled cross section, random samples from different time periods and from different units are taken e.g. we can take data on number of females and males in schools A, B and C in 2020 and schools X, Y and Z in 2023.

In pure panel data, we are using the same units e.g we can take data on genders in schools A, B and C in 2020 and collect data from the same schools in 2023. Therefore the main difference is just the units we observe.
