Ray Of Light [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Yes. I agree

Explanation:

Due to a fall in barriers to international trade, <u>companies in wealthy advanced economies now find it easier to move their manufacturing activities to other countries</u> with lower labor rates so that they can reduce their manufacturing costs.

This move means that manufacturing companies in the wealthy advanced economies have reduced job opportunities and as such, workers in this industry will suffer.

Wine and Roses, Inc., offers a bond with a coupon of 7.0 percent with semiannual payments and a yield to maturity of 7.75 percen
Aneli [31]

Answer:

P = 9359.8

Explanation:

Given:

  • n = 14
  • YTM = 7.75% = 0.0775
  • F = 1000
  • Coupon rate = 7.0 percent => Coupon payment is: 1000*7% = 70

As we know that, the formula to find out YTM is:

       YTM = [C + (F-P/n) ] / (F+ P) / 2

<=> 0.0775 = [ 70 + (1000 - P/14)] / (1000+P)/2

<=> 0.0775(1000+P) /2 =  70 + (1000 - P/14)

<=> 0.0775(1000+P)  = 140 + 2(1000 - P/14)  

<=> P = 9359.8

So the price of the $1,000 face value bond is 9359.8

Troyanec [42]

Answer: d. a two year opportunity cost of $40,000 after leaving her teaching position.

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this we have to analyze the information given.

The difference between teaching modern dance and joining a touring dance company per year is:

  • $44,000- $24,000 = $20,000

We simply subtracted the earnings per year at the touring dance company to the earnings per year of teaching modern dance.

The opportunity cost per year is $20,000.

Since she is joining the touring dance company for 2 years, the opportunity cost is:

  • 20,000 x 2 = 40,000  

Dawnell’s decision will result in a two-year opportunity cost of $40,000 after leaving her teaching position. (option d)

Taylor inc., the company you work for, is considering a new project whose data are shown below. what is the project's year 1 cas
arsen [322]

Answer:

$27,175

Explanation:

Year 1

Sales                                  $62,500

Depreciation        $8,000

Operating Cost    $25,000

Total Expense                    <u>($33,000)</u>

Income Before tax              $29,500

Tax 35%                              <u>($10,325)</u>

Net Income                          <u>$19,175</u>

Interest Expense is not relevant to the project, It is a financing decision which will not be part of project calculation.

As the Net income includes the deduction of non cash item of depreciation. so, it will be added back to calculate the cash flow.

Cash Flow in year 1 = Net Income + Depreciation = $19,175 + $8,000 = $27,175
