Answer:

8.53 years

Explanation:

Calculation for the duration of the bond

The first step is to calculate for Change in Bond Price

Change in Bond Price = -(30)/1,170

Change in Bond Price = -0.0256×100

Change in Bond Price =-2.56%

Second step is to find the Effective Duration

Effective duration = -0.0256/0.0030

Effective Duration = 8.53 years

Therefore the duration of this bond will be 8.53 years

A store accidentally priced an item at $20 instead of $30 and honored the mispricing. where should the $10 difference
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The difference is attributed to sales.

Explanation:

The difference of $10 will be attributed to sales because $20 is charged instead of $30 which means selling price has been changed. However, it cannot be considered as a loss because the cost price is not given. It might be the actual cost price for the item is $15 and the store is selling at $20 instead of $30. So, in this case, the store is making a profit of $5. Thus, the difference is considered as the sale difference.

Compute the total manufacturing cost for a manufacturer with the following information for the month. Raw materials purchased $
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Cost of goods manufactured= $87100

Explanation

Total manufacturing cost is the aggregate amount of cost incurred by a business to produce goods in a reporting period.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that the cost of goods sold shall consist of:

the cost of direct materials

the cost of direct labor

the cost of manufacturing overhead

Expenses that are outside of the manufacturing facilities, such as selling, general and administrative expenses, are not product costs. They are reported as expenses on the income statement in the accounting period in which they occur.

In this exercise:

<u>Cost of goods manufactured:</u>

Direct materials= $56,000

Direct Labor=$15,600

Factory overhead=Factory supervisor salary+ Depreciation expense+Indirect materials= 10,000 +3,700+1,800= $15,500

Total= $87100

Note: Salesperson commissions and  Depreciation expense Delivery equipment are not included in factory overhead

You are the beneficiary of a life insurance policy. the insurance company informs you that you have two options for receiving th
lesantik [10]

So in this case, you would need to find the present value (PV) of the monthly payments. With the information given, you would have a PV= 195,413.08, which is less than the lump sum payment. In this case, you would take the 1 time payment.

Another way to look at this is to calculate the future value (FV) of both payouts. For the lump sum payment, you would assume the same interest rate (6%) and at the end of the same 20 years period, your investment would be worth 662,040.90 while the monthly payment option would be worth 646,857.25

Silvana Inc. projects the following data for the coming year. If the firm follows the residual dividend policy and also maintain
Goshia [24]

Answer:

The dividend payout ratio is 43.33% as shown below

Explanation:

EBIT is an acronym for earnings before interest and tax, it is given as $2 million.In other words, to arrive at net income we need to deduct interest on loan and tax.

EBIT                                                 $2000000

less interest(5000000*10%)         ($500000)

Earnings before tax                       $1500000

Tax @40%                                        ($600000)

Net income                                      $900000

Since capital project requires 60% of equity(net income belongs to equity holders),hence we need to deduct 60% of capital outlay from net income to arrive at distributable earnings.

distributable earnings =$900000-(60%*$850000)

                                     =$390000

Hence dividend payout ratio=distributable earnings/net income

                                               =$390000/$900000

                                                =43.33%
