Answer:

Current yield = 5.46%

Step-by-step explanation:

Current yield is calculated by dividing the annual income (coupon) on the bond divided by the current price of the bond

Current yield = Annual coupon / Current price

In this case,

Face value or Par value = $7,600

Price of the bond = $7,373 (shows it is a discount bond since the price < FV)

Coupon rate = 5.30%

Next, calculate the Coupon payment in dollars;

Annual coupon PMT = Coupon rate * Face value

Annual coupon PMT = 0.053 * 7,600 = $402.8

Therefore, Current Yield = 402.8 / 7,373 = 0.05463

Current yield = 5.46%

Candice spent 5 1/4 hours doing her homework. Her brother, Ronald, spent 1/2 that number of hours doing his homework. How many h

Elden [556K]

Let

x-----> the number of hours that Candice spent doing her homework

y-----> the number of hours that Ronald spent doing his homework

we know that

$x=5\frac{1}{4}\ hours$

convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$5\frac{1}{4}\ hours=\frac{5*4+1}{4}= \frac{21}{4}\ hours$

$x=\frac{21}{4}\ hours$ -------> equation A

$y=\frac{1}{2}x$ ------> equation B

Substitute equation A in equation B

$y=\frac{1}{2}*\frac{21}{4}=\frac{21}{8}\ hours$

convert an improper fraction to a mixed number

$\frac{21}{8}\ hours=2.625=2+0.625=2+\frac{5}{8}=2\frac{5}{8}\ hours$

therefore

<u>the answer is the option B</u>

$2\frac{5}{8}\ hours$

taurus [48]

Answer:

21.74 But if it tells you to round I would round to 21 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

its basically just a ratio of 92 to 20

92/20=4.6

92-20=72% the amount that is lost

so given that the plum is 100 lbs we know that 72% is depleted

(72/92 = .78)X100= 78 lbs depleted

Lastly 100-78 =22 for the remaining weight of the prunes.
