Workman Software has 8.8 percent coupon bonds on the market with 19 years to maturity. The bonds make semiannual payments and cu

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

current yield 8.2089552%

YTM = 8.05%

effective annual yield = 4.92%

Explanation:

(A)

current yield = C/P

coupon payment / market price

8.8/107.2 = 0.082089552 = 8.2089552%

(B)

$P = \frac{C}{2} \times\frac{1-(1+YTM/2)^{-2t} }{YTM/2} + \frac{CP}{(1+YTM/2)^{2t}}$

First par being the present value of the coupon payment and second the redeem of the face value at the end of the bond.

market price 107.2

face value 100

time = 19

rate 8.8%

C = annual coupon payment 100 x 8.8% = 8.8

You solve this using a financial calculation and get the semiannual rate

YTM/2 = 0.040268160

then multiply by 2 to get the annual YTM

0.040268160 x 2 =

YTM = 0.08053632 = 8.05%

(C)

Effective Annual Yield

$(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY$

where:

Holding period return:

$\frac{Net \: Return}{Investment} = HPR$

In this case:

coupon payment + redem - investment = net return

8.8 * 19 + 100 - 107.2 = 160

160/107.2 = 1.492537313

Then

$(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY$

$(1+1.142537313)^{\frac{365}{19\times365}} -1 = EAY$

EAY = 0.049242509 = 4.9242509%

Natalka [10]

Variable cost refers to the costs of production that fluctuate depending on the number of units produced.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The cost of any product that changes based on the quantity of goods that are produced. The volume that is produced decides the fluctuations in the variable cost. Fixed cost is the cost that will not change based on the number of units of the goods that is produced. Rent of a building can be considered as a fixed cost.

Example for variable cost may be raw materials cost, packaging cost,etc. Variable cost can be calculated by adding up the cost of labor and raw materials that are used in the production of one unit of a good.

Suppose the working-age population of a fictional economy falls into the following categories:

aniked [119]

Answer:

The right solution is:

(a) 120

(b) 20%

Explanation:

Given that,

Full time employed,

= 75

Part time employed,

= 25

Total unemployed,

= 20

(a)

The total employed will be:

= $Full \ time + Part \ time$

= $75+25$

= $100$

Now,

Labor force will be:

= $Total \ employed+Total \ unemployed$

= $100+20$

= $120$

(b)

The unemployment rate will be:

= $\frac{Total \ unemployment}{Labor \ force}\times 100$

= $\frac{20}{100}\times 100$

= $0.2\times 100$

= $20$ (%)
