Answer:

$1,137.94

Explanation:

<em>The value of the bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).</em>

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV

The value of bond for Wesimann Co be worked out as follows:

Step 1

<em>PV of interest payments</em>

Semi annul interest payment

= 8.5% × 1000 × 1/2

= $42.5

Semi-annual yield = 6.8/2 = 3.4 % per six months

Total period to maturity (in months)

= (2 × 12) = 24 periods (Note it was issued a year ago)

PV of interest =

PV = A × (1-(1+r)^(-n))/r

r-3.4 %- n- 24

42.5 × (1- (1+0.034)^(-2× 12)/0.034)

=$689.70

Step 2

<em>PV of Redemption Value</em>

= 1,000 × (1.034)^(-2× 12)

= 448.236

Step 3

Price of bond

= 689.70 + 448.23

= $1,137.94

Answer:

Current Price of the bond is $1,137.94

Explanation:

Price of a bond equals present value of coupon payments and the present value of face value at maturity

Face value = $1000

years to maturity equals to 12 years since the bond was issued a year ago and had 13 years to mature and payments are made semiannual = 12*2 =24

coupon payment since coupons are paid semiannual

1000*8.5/2=$40.25

YTM = 6.8%/2 = 3.4%

bond price = C * [1-(1+r)^-n / r) + FV/ (1+r)^n

                  =42.5 * [ 1-(1+0.034)^-24/0.034] + 1000/(1+0.034)^24

                  =689.7046 + 448.2363

                  =$1,137.94

Yowell Company began operations on January 1, Year 1. During Year 1, the company engaged in the following cash transactions: 1)
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

$9,500

Explanation:

The cash flow statement categories the company's transactions in a financial period into 3 groups; these are operating, investing and financing.

The net profit/loss, depreciation, changes in current assets (other than cash) and liabilities are considered as operating activities including income taxes.  

The sale of assets, interest received, purchase of investments are examples of investing activities while the issuance of stocks, debt principal deduction (loan settlement), issuance of debt securities etc are examples of financing activities.

An increase in assets other than cash is an outflow while an increase in liabilities is an inflow. Depreciation and other non-cash expenses deducted in the income statements are added back while the non-cash income such gain on asset are deducted from net income.

Yowell's net cash flow from operating activities

= $44,000 - $10,500 - $24,000

= $9,500

Other transactions will be stated in the investing and financing sections of the cash flow statements
