Answer:

Interest per six months =$64,750 .

Explanation:

B<em>onds are instruments used by companies, governments and other entries to borrow from the public. </em>

<em>They represent a contractual agreement where  the borrower commits to pay a percentage of the principal amount borrowed plus the principal amount to the lender or investor.</em>

The proportion of the amount borrowed which is paid as interest is called coupon. The interest payment is computed as the the coupon rate in percentage multiplied by the amount borrowed.

Interest payment = Coupon rate (%) × Nominal Value

 Annual interest payment    = 7%  × 1,850,000 =$129,500

Semi-annual interest payment = Annual interest payment/2

Semi-annual interest payment =129,500 /2 =64,750 .

Interest per six months =$64,750 .

Note we had to divide by 2 because they are two six months in a year.

Consider four different stocks, all of which have a required return of 14 percent and a most recent dividend of $3.50 per share.
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Stock W   3.64%

Stock X  14.00%

Stock Y 21.28%

Stock Z   1.56%

Explanation:

We calculate the horizon value for each one. This will provide us with their price and with that, we solve for dividends yield

Stock W - Horizon Value

 3.50 x 1.10            3.85

-----------------  =    -----------  = 96.25

  0.14 - 0.10           0.04

Dividend yield: 3.50 / 96.25 = 0.036363636 = 3.64%

Stock X: g= 0

3.5 / 0.14 =  25

3.5 / 25 = 0.14

Stock Y g = -0.06

3.50 x (1 - 0.06) / (0.14 - (-0.06)) = 16.45

Dividend yield 3.50 / 16.45 = 0,212765957 = 21.28%

Stock Z

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}#&Dividends&Discounted\\&3.5&\\1&4.2&3.68\\2&5.04&3.88\\2&5.6448&217.17\\&TOTAL&224.73\\\end{array}\right]

First we solve for the next two dividends:

next year 3.50 x (1 + 20%) = 4.2

second year 4.20 x (1 + 20%) = 5.04

Here we solve for the horizon value of the constant grow:

5.04 x 1.12 / (0.14 - 0.12) = 282.24

now, we solve for the Present value of each one and add them together.

Getting a value of $224.73

We now solve for dividend yield: 3.50 / 224.73 = 0,01557 = 1.56%

Cost of Normal Spoilage
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

1. Cost of the Tramel Job

= Direct material cost + Direct labor cost + Overhead applied

= $1,900 + $500 + (140% × $500)

= $1,900 + $500 + $700

= $3,100

2. Journal entry to record the overhead cost

Overhead cost account Dr $500

To Material account Cr $400

To Labor account Cr $100

3. Effect of additional rework required $200 of direct labor on the cost of Tramel job

= Direct material cost + Direct labor cost + Overhead applied

= $1,900 + ($500 + $200) + (140% × $500)

= $1,900 + $700 + $700

= $3,300

The effect of additional rework required of $200 of direct labor cost is an increase of $200 on the cost of job for Tramel
