Answer:

2.072 rights

Explanation:

Amount needed to buy the land = $8.6 million = $8,600,000

stock outstanding = 540,000

Market price per share = $34.80

subscription price = $33 a share

Now,

Number shares to be issued = ( Amount needed ) ÷ ( subscription price )

= $8,600,000 ÷ $33

= 260606.06 shares

1 rights will be issued per stock

thus,

number of rights required for purchase

= ( stock outstanding ) ÷ ( Number shares to be issued  )

= 540,000 ÷ 260606.06

= 2.072 rights

kotykmax [81]

Explanation:

The computation of the fixed cost and the variable cost per hour by using high low method is shown below:

Variable cost per mile = (High Operating cost - low operating cost) ÷ (High miles - low miles)

= ($845 - $625) ÷ (3,350 miles - 2,250 miles)

= $220 ÷ 1,100 miles

= $0.2 per miles

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High operating cost - (High miles × Variable cost per miles)

= $845 - (3,350 miles × $0.2 per miles)

= $845 - $670

= $175

And, the contribution margin income statement is presented below:

Sales (1,400 × $0.6)                                         $840

Less: Variable cost (1,400 × $0.2)                ($280)

Contribution margin                                        $560

Less: Fixed cost                                               ($175)

Net  operating income                                    $385

Both Bond Sam and Bond Dave have 7.3 percent coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond Sam has three
Ainat [17]

Answer:

-5.14 for sam

-18.01% for dave

Explanation:

We first calculate for Sam

R = 7.3%

We have 2% increase

= 9.3%

We calculate for present value of coupon and present value at maturity using the formula for present value in the attachment

To get C

1000 x 0.073/2

= 36.5

time= 3 years x 2 times payment = 6

Ytm = rate = 9.3%/2 = 0.0465

Putting values into the formula

36.5[1-(1+0.0465)^-6/0.0465]

= 36.5(1-0.7613/0.0465)

36.5(0.2385/0.0465)

= 36.5 x 5.129

Present value of coupon = 187.20

We solve for maturity

M = 1000

T = 6 months

R = 0.0465

1000/(1+0.0465)⁶

= 1000/1.3135

Present value = 761.32

We add up the value of present value at maturity and that at coupon

761.32 + 187.20

= $948.52

Change in % = 948.52/1000 - 1

= -0.05148

= -5.14 for sam

We calculate for Dave

He has 20 years and payment is two times yearly

= 20x2 = 40

36.5 [1-(1+0.0465)^-40/0.0465]

Present value = 36.5 x 18.014

= 657.511

At maturity,

Present value = 1000/(1+0.0465)⁴⁰

= 1000/6.1598

= 162.34

We add up these present values

= 657.511+162.34 = $819.851

Change = 819.851/1000 -1

= -0.1801

= -18.01%
