Answer:
d. sinking fund. 
Explanation:
A bond refers to a debt or fixed investment security, in which a bondholder (creditor or investor) loans an amount of money to the bond issuer (government or corporations) for a specific period of time. 
Generally, the bond issuer is expected to return the principal at maturity with an agreed upon interest to the bondholder, which is payable at fixed intervals. 
A sinking fund is a provision of a bond indenture which is designed to ease the burden of principal repayment by spreading it out over several years.
<em>Hence, a sinking fund is generally viewed or assumed to protect the bondholders such as creditors or investors because the fund set aside would serve as a collateral incase the bond issuer can't pay in the future. </em>

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
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Explanation:
X001 Sales volum = 3000*$20 = $60,000
X002 Sales volum = 3000*$10 = $30,000
Total $90,000
Allocated to X002 based on sales volum is 33.33% (30,000/90,000) of the 60,000, which is $20,000
Cost per unit of X002 is $6.67 ($20,000/3,000). Sells 1000 units, $6.67*1000 = $6670.
Gross profit = Revenue $10,000 - Cost $6670 = $3330 in gross profit
