Answer:

The value of the settlement today =  $231,897.79  

Explanation:

The value of the settlement today is the sum of the present value (PV) of cash inflows discounted at the discount rate of 5.7 %.

Year                                                   PV

1              35,000 × 1.057^(-1)   = 33112.58

2                39,000× 1.057^(-2) = 34907.16

3.               80,000× 1.057^(-3)  = 67743.09

4                 120,000 × 1.057^(-4) =96134.94

The Pv of the total cash in flow =33,112.58  +  34,907.17  +  67,743.09  +  96,134.95  =  231,897.79  

The value of the settlement today =  $231,897.79

rewona [7]

Answer:

The answer is "5.4% and 15,23,500".

Explanation:

Calculating the capital cost:

=(1-\frac{1}{1.46})\times 10.91\% \times (1-39\%)+(\frac{1}{1.46})\times 4.84\% \\\\=(\frac{1.46-1}{1.46})\times \frac{10.91}{100} \times (\frac{100-39}{100})+(\frac{1}{1.46})\times \frac{4.84}{100} \\\\ =(\frac{0.46}{1.46})\times \frac{10.91}{100} \times (\frac{61}{100})+(\frac{1}{1.46})\times \frac{4.84}{100} \\\\=\frac{306.1346}{14600}+\frac{4.84}{146} \\\\=  0.021+0.033 \\\\ =0.054\\\\= 5.4\%

Maximum amount to be spent

=\frac{277,000\times 100 }{5.4} \times (1-\frac{1}{(1.054)^7})\\\\=\frac{277,000\times 100 }{5.4} \times (1-\frac{1}{1.44})\\\\=\frac{277,000\times 100 }{5.4} \times (1-0.7)\\\\=277,000 \times 100\times 0.055\\\\=\$15,23,500\\

A $1,000 face value bond is currently quoted at 101.2. the bond pays semiannual payments of $28.50 each and matures in six years
goblinko [34]
Coupon rate is the yearly interest earned by a loan and it can be calculated with

C = \frac{i}{p}

where i is the annual interest and p is the par value of the bond or the initial loan amount.

For this particular case, since the semiannual payment is $28.50, then the annual payment is 2 x 28.50 = $57.00.

Thus, we have 

C = \frac{57}{1000} = 0.057

From this, the coupon rate is 0.057 x 100% = 5.7%.
Answer: 5.7%
