Answer:
$929 approx
Explanation:
<u>Assumption</u>: <u>Since face value of the bond is not provided, it has been assumed to be $1000 and solved accordingly.</u>
The present value of a bond i.e bond price is the sum total of the present value of it's future coupon payments in addition to redemption value, both discounted at yield to maturity rate. It is expressed as
where, = Present Value of the bond
C = Annual coupon payment
YTM = Yield to maturity rate
n = No of years to maturity.
Here, C = $55 (assumed par value of each bond as $1000)
YTM = 7.25% per annum
n = 5 years
Putting these values in above equation, we get,
Hence, 4.073 × 55 + 1000 × 0.7047
= $929 approx
Hence, Pierre should pay less than it's face value for such a bond.
Answer:
1,875 units.
Explanation:
Break-even is the point where a company neither generate profit not make loss, or we can say that it the sales at which the operating profit will be zero. It can be calculated for sales volume as-well-as dollar sales. Let's prepare a contribution income statement to calculate the break-even sales in quantity. We know that:
EBIT / Operating Profit = (SP * Q) - (VC * Q) - Fixed Cost
where
SP = Selling Price
Q = Quantity / Units
VC = Variable cost
As it is understood that the operating profit at break-even is zero, simply put it in the above contribution income statements along with other figures given in the question.
⇒ 0 = (20 * Q) - (12 * Q) - 15,000
OR 15,000 / (20 - 12) = Q
⇒ Break-even units = Q = 1,875 units.
Answer: Contingency planning
Explanation: In simple words, it refers to the planning for an upcoming event that may or may not occur in the future. This planning is usually done by organisation so that they can act accordingly if any problem in business operations occurs in future.
