A 10-year $1,000 bond pays a nominal rate of 9% compounded semi-annually. If the market interest rate is 12% compounded annually

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

a) actual dollar = $60

b) Constant dollar of the 15th payment = $38.710

Explanation:

Facts from the question:

The Face value of the bond = $1,000

Nominal Interest rate = 12% and it compounded annually

General inflation rate = 6%

The question: Determine the 15th interest payment on the bond.

Step 1: The coupon for the amount of semi annual payment is as follows:

Coupon= (Interest rate/ Number of compounding times in a year) x face value of the bond

= (0.12/2) x 1000

= $60 -= Actual dollar amount

Step 2: Determine the 15th payment and this will represent the middle of the 8th year or (7 1/2) year.

To calculate this=

Constant dollar amount of the 15th interest payment

= Actual dollar amount (above) / (1 + inflation rate)∧n

where n= the number of years = 7.5 years

= $60 / (1 + 0.06) ∧7.5

= $60/1.55

= $38.710

This means the constant dollar amount on that 15th payment = $38.710

Bramble Corporation had January 1 and December 31 balances as follows. 1/1/17 12/31/17 Inventory $112,000 $133,000 Accounts paya

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

$604,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Opening Closing

Inventory $112,000 $133,000

Accounts payable $55,000 $64,000

Cost of goods sold = $592,000

Cost of goods sold = Opening stock + Purchases - Closing stock

Purchases = Cost of goods sold - Opening stock + Closing stock

= $592,000 - $112,000 + $133,000

= $613,000

Bramble’s 2017 cash payments to suppliers:

= Opening accounts payable + Purchases - Closing accounts payable

= $55,000 + $613,000 - $64,000

= $604,000

Suppose that you won a lawsuit and were awarded a series of payments of $10,000 a year for 10 years. Assuming an interest rate o

DochEvi [55]

Okay. So it's $10,000 per year, which is $100,000 in 10 years. I'm not so sure how to solve it exactly, but I found a lump sum calculator online. I put the information on that and according to the calculator, today's payment in a lump sum would be $50,894.93. The future value is $100,000 with 10 periods (in this case, years) of the interest rate of 7% once per year. I think that the answer is $50,894.93.
