Answer:

gain = $26.24 per bond

Explanation:

trading bonds 100M, means $100,000 in bonds

the trader purchased the bonds at a discount, at 100 - 1.5 = 98.5%

the coupon rate is 9%, if the bonds are sold at 8.9%, then they will be sold at a premium.

to try to determine an approximate selling price = 9%/8.9% = 1.01123

profit per bond = sales price - purchase price =  ($1,000 x 1.01123) - ($1,000 x 0.985) = $1,011.24 - $985 = $26.24 per bond

total profit = $26.24 x 100 = $2,624

lora16 [44]

a) The computation of the single plantwide predetermined overhead rate for Tent Master is $6 per DLH ($252,000/42,000).

b) The computation of the overhead cost per unit for Pup and Pop-up Tents for Tent Master is computed as follows:

                               Pup Tents     Pop-up Tents

Overhead cost     $24 ($6 x 4)    $18 ($6 x 3)

c) The computation of the product cost per unit for Pup and Pop-up Tents is as follows:

Per Unit      Selling     Direct     Direct  Overhead     Product

                    Price   Materials   Labor    per unit    Cost / Unit

Pup tent       $ 78         $ 20      $ 45        $24             $89

Pop-up tent    73             25         30         $18             $73

d) The computation of the gross profit per unit (selling price per unit minus the product cost per unit) of Pup and Pop-up Tents is as follows:

Per Unit      Selling     Direct    Direct  Overhead   Product    Gross Profit

                    Price   Materials  Labor    per unit   Cost / Unit  (Loss) per unit

Pup tent      $ 78       $ 20      $ 45         $24             $89     ($11) ($78 - $89)

Pop-up tent   73          25          30          $18             $73       $0 ($73 - $73)

<h3>What does a product cost?</h3>

The determination of the product cost includes the costs of direct materials, direct labor, and overhead.  The overhead cost is allocated to each unit based on a predetermined overhead rate (budgeted overheads/budgeted usage) or using an activity-based costing technique.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Budgeted overhead costs = $252,000

Budgeted direct labor hours = 42,000

<h3>Question Completion:</h3>

Tent Master produces Pup tents and Pop-up tents. The company budgets $252,000 of overhead cost and 42,000 direct labor hours. Additional information follows:

Per Unit      Selling Price  Direct Materials  Direct Labor  DL Hours

Pup tent          $ 78                   $ 20                   $ 45            4

Pop-up tent       73                       25                      30            3

<h3>Required: </h3>

1. Compute a single plantwide overhead rate assuming the company allocates overhead costs based on 42,000 direct labor hours.

2. Pup tents use 4 direct labor hours (DLH) per unit and Pop-up tents use 3 direct labor hours per unit. Compute the overhead cost per unit for each product.

3. Compute the product cost per unit for each product.

4. For each product, compute the gross profit per unit (selling price per unit minus the product cost per unit).

The Closed Fund is a closed-end investment company with a portfolio currently worth $260 million. It has liabilities of $2 milli
attashe74 [19]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is given below:

NAV = (Total value - Liabilities) ÷ Number of shares outstanding

= ($260M - $2M) ÷ 6M

= $258M ÷ 6M

= $43

b. The premium or discount is  

= (Market price - NAV) ÷ NAV

= ($40 - $43) ÷ $43

= -$3 ÷ $43

= -0.06976 or -6.98%

So here the fund should be sold at 6.98% discount
