Answer:

the bond's price elasticity = - 0.67

Explanation:

present bond value = $1100

previous bond value = $900

change in bond value = $1100 - $900 = $200

present bond percentage = 8%

previous bond percentage = 12%

% change in bond value = 8% - 12% = - 4%

Bond price elasticity = \frac{change  in bond value}{previous bond value}/\frac{change in percentage}{previous percentage}

                                  = \frac{200}{900} / \frac{-4}{12}

                                  = \frac{2}{9} * -3

                                  = - 0.67

The 2017 balance sheet of Kerber’s Tennis Shop, Inc., showed long-term debt of $1.87 million, and the 2018 balance sheet showed
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

$1,290,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Cash flow to creditors = -$85,000

Cash flow to stockholders = $170,000

Firm’s net capital spending for 2018 = $1,250,000

Firm reduced its net working capital investment by $45,000

Cash Flow from Assets:

= Cash Flow to Creditor + Cash Flow to Stockholders

= -$85,000 + $170,000

= $85,000

Cash Flow from Assets = OCF - Net Capital Spending - Change in Net Working Capital

$85,000 = OCF -  $1,250,000 - (-$45,000)

OCF = $85,000 + $1,250,000 - $45,000

        = $1,290,000

Your boss is considering a 5-year investment project. If the project is accepted, it would require an immediate spending of $678
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

$50.47

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator  

Cash flow in year 0 = - ($678 +  $58 ) = -736

Cash flow in year 1 - 4 = $173

Cash flow in year 5 = $173 + $144

I = 8.1

NPV = 50.47

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute

Susan put her savings into a mutual fund that paid a nominal interest rate of 3 percent a year at the beginning of 2005. the cpi
Ksju [112]

Answer:

-0.11% per year

Explanation:

Here, we want to calculate real interest rate.

Firstly, we calculate the inflation rate

mathematically the inflation rate = (cpi at the end of year - cpi at the beginning of year)/cpi at the beginning of year * 100%

Inflation rate = (232-225)/225 * 100% = 3.11%

we now proceed to calculate the real interest rate

mathematically, real interest rate = Nominal interest rate - inflation rate

from the question, nominal interest rate = 3%

real interest rate = 3% - 3.11% = -0.11%

This means that the real interest rate earned by sally is -0.11% per year

A credit to Accounts Receivable (to remove the amount that will not be collected)

A debit to Allowance for Doubtful Accounts (to reduce the Allowance balance that was previously established)
