Answer:

Require the issuer to set aside assets at specified amounts to retire the bonds at maturity.

Explanation:

Sinking fund is defined as amounts of money that are set aside to pay off a bond or debt. When a company incurs a debt it will take a large allocation of revenue to offset it. So they start setting aside sinking funds to cushion the hardship of repayment.

This is a way to avoid lump sum payment at bond maturity.

Sinking funds gives some level of security and reduces default risk, so interest rate is usually lower. Cash flow and profitability is increased

Each firm in a competitive market has a cost function​ of: Upper C equals 25 plus q squared​, so its marginal cost function is M
Effectus [21]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

TC = 25 + q^2

Now

Marginal cost is

= dtc ÷ dQ

= 2q

Average variable cost  (AVC) = q

We Assuming perfect competition so there is a free entry so no profits

Therefore

ATC = P

ATC = TC ÷ q  

= q + 25 ÷ q

Now

MC = MR = P = ATC

2q = q + 25 ÷ q

q = 25 ÷ q

q^2 = 25

So, Quantity per firm = q = 5

Now

P = MC = MR = ATC

= q + 25 ÷ q  

= 5 + 25 ÷ 5  

= 5 + 5

= 10

hence, equilibrium price is 10

Now

Q = 35 - P  

= 35 – 10

= 25

Hence, Market quantity (Q)  = 25

And, the number of firms i.e n

N = Q ÷ q  

= 25 ÷ 5

= 5

5                           28,000                      14,542

a. Calculate NPV, IRR, MIRR, payback, and discounted payback for each project

Dry Prepreg

NPV = $4,330

IRR = 19.86%

MIRR = 17.12%

payback = 3 years

discounted payback = 4.17 years

Solvent Prepreg

NPV = $6,130

IRR = 16.80%

MIRR = 15.51%

payback = 3.21 years

discounted payback = 4.58 years

b. Assuming the projects are independent, which one(s) would you recommend?

  • both projects, since their NPV is positive

c. If the projects are mutually exclusive, which would you recommend?

Dry prepreg becuase its IRR, MIRR are higher, and its payback and discounted payback periods are shorter.

Baldwin has negotiated a new labor contract for the next round that will affect the cost for their product Buzz. Labor costs wil
harina [27]

Answer:

433 units

Explanation:

Information related to production costs are missing, so I looked for it. I found the following:

current sales price = $17

current fixed costs = $7,242

new labor costs per unit = $2.60, which results in a $0.50 increase

new direct materials cost per unit = $5.82, which results in a $1 decrease

total variable costs per unit = $8.42

Baldwin plans to pass 50% of the changes in costs to its customers:

  • Increase $0.25 due to higher labor costs
  • decrease $0.50 due to lower materials costs
  • net change = -$0.25

new sales price = $17 - $0.25 = $16.75

contribution margin per unit = $16.75 - $8.42 = $8.33

break even point in units = total fixed costs / contribution margin per unit = $7,242 / $16.75 = 432.36 = 433 units
