The price quotations of Treasury bonds in the Wall Street Journal show an ask price of 104.25 and a bid price of 104.125.
Andreas93 [3]

As a seller we would receive $1,041.25

<u>Solution:</u>

You may receive the bid price of the dealer, 104.125\% of $1,000, or $1,041.25

Prices of treasury bonds are expressed as par value amounts.  

The quote price of 104:25 means that the bond is priced at (104 + \frac{25}{100})\%= 104.25\% of the par value.  

Therefore, if the debt is $1,000, the dollar values to be charged by the borrower should be 1,000\times104.25\% = \$1,041.25

The following annual returns for Stock E are projected over the next year for three possible states of the economy. What is the
mr_godi [17]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

The following annual returns for Stock E are projected over the next year for three possible states of the economy. What is the stock’s expected return and standard deviation of returns? E(R) = 8.5% ; σ = 22.70%; mean = $7.50; standard deviation = $2.50

State              Prob     E(R)

Boom             10%     40%

Normal           60%     20%

Recession       30%   - 25%

Answer:

The expected return of the stock E(R) is 8.5%.

The standard deviation of the returns is 22.7%

Explanation:

<u>Expected return</u>

The expected return of the stock can be calculated by multiplying the stock's expected return E(R) in each state of economy by the probability of that state.

The expected return E(R) = (0.4 * 0.1)  +  (0.2 * 0.6)  +  (-0.25 * 0.3)

The expected return E(R) = 0.04 + 0.12 -0.075 = 0.085 or 8.5%

<u>Standard Deviation of returns</u>

The standard deviation is a measure of total risk. It measures the volatility of the stock's expected return. The standard deviation (SD) of a stock's return can be calculated by using the following formula:

SD = √(rA - E(R))² * (pA) + (rB - E(R))² * (pB) + ... + (rN - E(R))² * (pN)

Where,

  • rA, rB to rN is the return under event A, B to N.
  • pA, pB to pN is the probability of these events to occur
  • E(R) is the expected return of the stock

Here, the events are the state of economy.

So, SD = √(0.4 - 0.085)² * (0.1) + (0.2 - 0.085)² * (0.6) + (-0.25 - 0.085)² * (0.3)

SD = 0.22699 or 22.699% rounded off to 22.70%

Meenach Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-ho
o-na [289]

Answer:

Fixed overhead application rate

= <u>Budgeted fixed overhead</u>

  Budgeted direct labour hours

= <u>$114,000</u>

  60,000 hrs

= $1.90 per direct labour hour

Amount of overhead applied to job X387:     $

Variable overhead $4.90 x 170 hours         = 833

Fixed overhead $1.90 x 170 hours               = 323

                                                                            1,156

                                                           

Explanation:

In this case, there is need to calculate the fixed overhead application rate based on direct labour hours by dividing the the budgeted fixed overhead by budgeted direct labour hours. Then, we will calculate the overhead applied to Job X387 by multiplying the fixed and variable application rate by actual direct labour hours of 170 hours.
