Answer:

6%

Explanation:

Yield to maturity is the annual rate of return that an investor receives if a bond bond is held until the maturity. It is the long term return of the bond which is expressed in annual term.

Face value = F = $1,000

Coupon payment = $1,000 x 7.5% = $75

Selling price = P = $1110.40

Number of payment = n = 10 years

Yield to maturity = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]

Yield to maturity = [ $75 + ( $1,000 - $1,110.4 ) / 10 ] / [ ( $1,000 + $1,110.4 ) / 2 ]

Yield to maturity = [ $75 - 11.04 ] / $1,055.2

Yield to maturity = $63.96 / $1,055.2

Yield to maturity = 0.0606 = 6.06%

Rounded off to whole percentage 6%

kirza4 [7]

Answer: B. Bought the bonds from Dalrymple and sold them to the public

Explanation:

Investment Banks help companies issuing new securities in diverse ways to ensure that they raise the capital they are looking for. Some of the ways they help include; underwriting securities and market research. The main way they help companies issuing new securities however, is underwriting.

With Underwriting, the Investment Bank usually buys all the securities on offer from the Issuing company, then sells them at higher price to make a profit. This helps the issuing company because they get to sell all or most of their securities so it reduces uncertainty.

The Commonwealth Bank of Australia therefore bought the bonds from Dalrymple and sold them to the public.

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The answer is 11.2%

Explanation:

Cost of acquisition: $16 per share

Annual dividend: $1

The stock increases by $2 every year for 3 years. Therefore, we have:

First year is $16 per share

Second year is $18 per share

Third year is $20 per share.

The arithmetic average annual capital gain will be

($2/$16 + $2/$18 + $2/$20)/3

(0.125 + 0.111 + 0.1) / 3

0.336/3

0.112

Expressed as a percentage:

= 11.2%

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

$462,094

Explanation:

Depletion expense is a charge against profits for the use of natural resources. It is calculated by multiply the number of consumed units of the natural resources by the cost per unit.

Cost per unit = Total cost / total number of units expected to be extracted = $5,300,000 / 32,000,000 = 0.165625

Depletion expense = Cost per unit x  extracted units =  0.165625 x 2,790,000 = $462,094

You just inherited ?$12 comma 00012,000. while you plan to squander some of it? away, how much should you deposit in an account
soldier1979 [14.2K]
44% annual interest sounds too good to be true, but we'll work with it.
Don't know exactly how much is <span>$12 comma 00012,000.
I will work with $1,000,000  (one million).  You can scale the results to the right amounts.

Future value = $1,000,000
i=0.44 
n=88
Present value=$1,000,000/(1+0.44)^88=$1.159*10^(-8), not even one cent!

However, if the interest rate is 4% for 88 years (more likely), then
Present value=F/(1.04^88)=1,000,000/1.04^88=$317,000.50.
That's the amount you need to put in today to get $1000000 in 88 years at 4% APR (compounded annually).</span>
