Answer:

A Bond's current market value represented by B_{0} is the present value of a bond as on today. Present value of a bond is it's future cash flows in the form of coupon payments and principal repayment discounted at investor's expectation in the market also referred to as Yield to maturity(YTM).

Present value of a bond is given by the following equation,

B_{0} = \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{1} }  +\ \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{2} } \ +\ ......+\ \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{n} } \  +\ \frac{RV}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{n} }

where C= Annual coupon payments

YTM = Yield to maturity/ cost of debt/ market rate of return on similarly priced bonds

RV = Redemption value of bond

n = number of years to maturity

<u>a. A bond's coupon rate is higher than it's yield to maturity, then the bond will sell for more than face value.</u>

Hence, if the company pays more interest than what is paid in the market on similarly priced bonds, such bonds shall sell at more than their face value.

<u>b. If a bond's coupon rate is lower than it's yield to maturity, then the bond's price will increase over it's remaining maturity.</u>

Similarly, if a bond pays lower rate of interest than the market rate of interest on similarly priced bonds, the bond shall sell at lower than it's face value and the price will increase over the remaining life of such bonds.

Total value                                     $1,085,385

for computing the weight we simply divide the value of the preferred stock with the total value

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

$ 13.17

Explanation:

Data provided :

Material cost in the beginning = $ 126,000

Additional material cost = $ 32,000

thus,

the total material cost = $ 126,000 + $ 32,000 = $ 158,000

Units in the work in progress = 12,000 units

Therefore, the material cost per unit for July = (Total material cost) / (Units being produced)

on substituting the values in the above relation, we get

he material cost per unit for July = ( $ 158,000 ) / ( 12,000 units )

= $ 13.1667 ≈ $ 13.17

kifflom [539]

Answer:

revenue falls by $167,005.08

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price  

When elasticity of demand is less than 1, demand is inelastic

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.

change in percentage demanded when price falls by 11% = 11% x 0.6 = 6.6%

Quantity demanded increases by 6.6%

Increase in quantity demanded = 18,100 x 1.066 = 19,294.60

decrease in price = 0.89 x $180 = $160.20

change in total revenue

(180 x 18,100 ) - ( $160 .20 x 19,294.60)

= 3,258,000 - 3,090,994.92

=167,005.08
