Answer:

Case A $581,757.17  

Case B $500,000.00  

Case C $416,910.21  

Explanation:

Current price of a bond

The market price of a bond can be computed using the pv formula in excel, which is given as :

=pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

Where rate is the yield to maturity on the bond divided by 2 since the bond in question is semi-annual interest paying bond i.e

Case A 4%/2=2%

Case B 6%/2=3%

Case C 8.5%/2=4.25%

The nper is the time to maturity of the bond multiplied by 2 for the same reason cited for yield to maturity  i.e 10 years *2=20

The pmt is the semi-annual coupon interest payable by the bond i.e 6%/2*$500,000=$15,000

The fv is the future value of the bond given as $500,000

Case A

=-pv(2%,20,15000,500000)

Pv= 581,757.17  

Case B

=-pv(3%,20,15000,500000)

PV=$$500,000.00  

Case C

=-pv(4.25%,20,15000,500000)

PV=$416,910.21

A product whose EOQ is 40 units experiences a decrease in ordering cost from $90 per order to $10 per order. The revised EOQ is:
ruslelena [56]

Answer: three times as large

Explanation:

Economic order quantity will be calculated as follows:

EOQ = ✓(2DS/H)

D = Demand in units

Here S = Ordering cost = $10

H = Holding cost

Since S = $10

Therefore, EOQ will be:

= ✓(2DS/H)

= ✓(2 × 10 × D/ H)

= ✓(20D/H)

Since we're to increase the order cost from $10 per order to $90 per order, then EOQ will be:

Since S = $90

Therefore, EOQ will be:

= ✓(2DS/H)

= ✓(2 × 90 × D/ H)

= ✓(180D/H)

3✓20DH

The revised EOQ will then be 3 times as large.

If the price level recently increased by 20% in England while falling by 5% in the United States, how much must the exchange rat
lara [203]

Answer:

£.0.6875 per USD

Explanation:

PPP stands for purchasing power parities. It is actually the rate of currency conversion.

As per the given information, the price level recently increased by 20% in England while falling by 5% in the United States, so the net increase in the U.S. dollar would be (20+5)=25%.

This can be taken as that now 20% more pounds shall be needed to purchases the same U.S. goods.

Hence the new exchange rate would be:

= 1.25 x £0.55/$1 = £.0.6875 per USD
