Answer:

The correct answer is (d)

Explanation:

Elasticity means a change in price will change the supply or demand more than the price change. If the demand is inelastic, then the increase in price will increase the tax revenues because the demand will not change much compared to the price change. Likewise, this phenomenon is the same in the case of supply; the increase in taxes will decrease the overall quantity supplied, which will decrease the overall tax collection or tax revenue.

Consider a 10-year bond with a face value of $1,000 that has a coupon rate of 5.5%, with semiannual payments.

DiKsa [7]

Explanation:

It all depends on the market conventions and the bond documentation.

1 In most countries, traditionally fixed coupon bonds don’t have their coupons day counted. So if the frequency is twice a year, and the annual coupon rate is 5.5%, then each semi-annual coupon is exactly 5.5/2=2.75%. However a lot of other instruments, e.g. fixed swap legs, loans, and bonds that are really “loan participation notes”, etc. usually have their fixed coupons day counted. So each coupon amount will vary a little depending on the number of days in the accrual period, weekends and holidays.

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Going by the question above we will have to first work on the

Formulation of LP:

Maximize profit

Z = 1.5A+1.5B where A - number of units of product A and B - number of units of product B

subject to constraints -

600 minutes available for molding

3A+2B <=600 ---> Molding constraint---> 1

600 minutes available for painting

2A+4B<=600 ---> Painting constraint---> 2

420 minutes available for packing

A+3B<=420 ---> Packing constraint---> 3

A, B, C >=0 ---> Non-negative constraint ---> 4

b) Solution with the help of Excel solver:

Target cell will be the RHS or profit value of the objective function as we are maximizing the profit.

Changing cells will be A and B ---> number of units of products

Constraints will be entered as below. The same are also listed in part A (1,2,3,4).

The attached images below are the formulation.
