Answer: The bondholders decided to convert the bonds into common stock because they believed that getting $2250 today is worth more than $120 interest every year and a $1000 principal payment at the end of the bonds life.
Explanation:
1) In order to find out the number of bonds issued we need to divide 750,000 (Total ) by 1000(Face value of each bond).Total number of bonds issues therefore are 750.
2) A 12 percent convertible bond means that the bond pays a coupon of 120 ( 0.12 * 1000) every year.
3) Each bond is convertible into 25 shares , which means if one bond is converted into common stock, the bond holder can earn $1750. We calculate this number by multiplying the number of shares which is 25 into the current market price of the shares which is 70.
4) Also the company is offering an extra $500 per bond for converting it which means (500/25) an extra $20 per share.
5) So in total the bondholder by converting a bond and selling the shares he gets by converting it can earn $2250 per bond which they bought for a $1000 and gives them 120$ of interest every year.
6) SO to conclude the bondholders decided to convert the bonds into common stock because they believed that getting $2250 today is worth more than $120 interest every year and a $1000 principal payment at the end of the bonds life.

Answer: 2016 CPI is 110
Explanation:
Given the following :
Base year = 2012
Cost of basket in 2012 = $50
Cost of basket in 2014 = $52
Coat of basket in 2016 = $55
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is calculated using the formula :
CPI = (weighted cost item in current period / weighted cost of item in base period) × 100
Base period / year = 2012
Current period = 2016
Therefore, 2016 CPI equals;
($55 / $50) × 100
= 110
According to Quora dot com, US magazines are viewed as historically dependent on advertising revenue hence why subscriptions to magazines are historically very low as advertising is used to subsidise cover price or subscription cost.
With the general collapse of print publications in the US, particularly led by the drying up of physical newsstand presence, magazines have a harder time getting into consumer's hands. This means that advertisers are less likely to spend in a publication (readership decreasing) and then advertising revenues go down, making magazines less and less profitable.
I realize this is quit lengthy so I'd sum it up to saying the business model for magazines has traditionally been the selling of advertising space ... Not sure if this is what you're looking for
