kramer

Answer: $1.637; $1.404

Explanation:

Given that,

Last year:

Output - Sales = $200,100

Input:

Labor = 30,100

Raw materials = 35,100

Energy = 5,010

Capital = 50,010

Other = 2,010

Input = 30,100 + 35,100 + 5,010 + 50,010 + 2,010

         = 122,230

Total Productivity = \frac{output}{input}

                              = \frac{200,100}{122,230}

                              = $1.637

This year:

Output - Sales = $202,100

Input:

Labor = 40,100

Raw materials = 45,100

Energy = 6,050

Capital = 49,750

Other = 2,875

Input = 40,100 + 45,100 + 6,050 + 49,750 + 2,875

         = 143,875

Total Productivity = \frac{output}{input}

                              = \frac{202,100}{143,875}

                              = $1.404

EHealth Corporation has $1,000 par value bonds with 4 years to maturity. The bonds pay an 8% coupon rate with semi-annual coupon
Degger [83]

Answer:

Yield to Maturity(YTM) = 3.47%

Explanation:

<em>The yield to maturity is the required rate of return (discount rate) that would equate the price of the bond and cash outflow  expected from the bond.  The yield on the bond can be determined as follows using the formula below:  </em>

YTM = C + F-P/n) ÷ 1/2 (F+P)  

YTM-Yield to maturity-  

C- coupon  

F- Face Value  

P- Current Price  

DATA  

Coupon = coupon rate × Nominal value = 1,000 × 8%× 1/2=40(note we divide by 2 because interest is paid semi-annually)

n= 4×2 = 8 (note there 2 half months in a year)

Face Value = 1000

YM-?, C-40, Face Value - 1,000, P-103.75/100×   1000 = 1037.5

YM = (40 + (1000-1037)/8) ÷ ( 1/2× (1000 + 1037.5  ) )  =0.0347

YM = 0.0347 × 100 = 3.47%  

Yield to Maturity = 3.47%
