Navistar Electric issued 1000 debenture bonds 2 years ago with a face value of $5,000 each and a bond interest rate of 15% per y
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

$7,081.25

Explanation:

Face value = 5000

Coupon = 15% paid annually. Semi annual payment = 750/2 = 375

Time to maturity = 18 years

Interest rate = 10% compounded semi-annually

P = 375(P|A, 5%, 36) + 5000(P|F, 5%, 36)

P = 375(16.58131488) + 5000(0.17265193)

P = 6217.99308 + 863.25965

P = 7081.25273

P = $7,081.25

So, the present worth of one bond today is  $7,081.25

stira [4]

Answer:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $22,000 favorable

Explanation:

<u>To calculate the direct labor efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (3*8,000 - 22,000)*11

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (24,000 - 22,000)*11

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $22,000 favorable

The income statement for Stretch-Tape Corporation reports net sales of $540,000 and net income of $65,700. Average total assets
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

7.3%; 12.17%; 0.6 times; 15.95%

Explanation:

Return on assets:

= Net Income ÷ Average total assets

= ($65,700 ÷ $900,000) × 100

= 7.3%

Profit Margin:

= Net Income ÷ Net Sales

= ($65,700 ÷ $540,000) × 100

= 12.17%

Asset Turnover:

= Net Sales ÷ Average Total Assets

= $540,000 ÷ $900,000

= 0.6 times

Return on Equity:

= Net Income before dividend ÷ Equity

= [($65,700 + $30,000) ÷ $600,000] × 100  

= ($95,700 ÷ $600,000] × 100  

= 15.95%

An investment that costs $5,800 will produce annual cash flows of $2,480 for a period of 4 years. Given a desired rate of return
aleksandrvk [35]

Based on the present value of the annual cash flows and the investment cost, the present value index is 1.39

<h3>How is the present value index calculated?</h3>

To find the present value index, use the formula:

= Present value of cash flow/Investment cost

The present value of cash flow is:

= Annual cash flows x Present value interest factor of annuity, 9%, 4 years

= 2,480 x 3.239719877

= $8,034.51

The present value index is:

= 8,034.51 / 5,800

= 1.39
