Answer:

1. Current bonds price = $81.86.

2. Yield to maturity  = 22.16%.

3. 3.  Expected Return = 7.5%.

Explanation:

Required Rate = Rf + beta*MRP

          = 5% + 0.25*(15% - 5%)

       = 5% +0.25*10%

              = 5% + 2.5% = 7.5%

 Required Rate = 7.5%

  Expected Future Value = 70% x $100 + 30% x $60

       = (0.7*$100) + (0.3*$60)

       = $(70+18) = $88

    Expected Future Value = $88

1.  Current bonds price = 88/1.075 = $81.86

2.  Yield to maturity = 100/81.86 - 1 = 1.22159785-1 = 0.22159785 =   22.159785% = 22.16%

3.  Expected Return = 7.5%

Discuss how a change in a product design could produce a change in the design of a planning and control system.
RUDIKE [14]

Product design is cross-functional, knowledge-intensive work that has become increasingly important in today's fast-paced, globally competitive environment. It is a key strategic activity in many firms because new products contribute significantly to sales revenue. When firms are able to develop distinctive products, they have opportunities to command premium pricing. Product design is a critical factor in organizational success because it sets the characteristics, features, and performance of the service or good that consumers demand. The objective of product design is to create a good or service with excellent functional utility and sales appeal at an acceptable cost and within a reasonable time. The product should be produced using high-quality, low-cost materials and methods. It should be produced on equipment that is or will be available when production begins. The resulting product should be competitive with or better than similar products on the market in terms of quality, appearance, performance, service life, and price.
