Answer:

3.22%

Explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the minimum yield that Toby could receive.

To calculate this, we use the YTM formula.

Before we apply this formula, we write out the parameters which we were given in the question.

Given that number of years, n = 15*2 = 30, Price, P = 1722.25, Face value, F = 1100, C = 0.08/2*1100 = 44

Using YTM approximation formula,

YTM = [C + (F – P)/n]/ (F + P)/2

YTM = [44 + (1100 – 1722.25)/30]/ (1100+1722.25)/2

YTM = 23.2583/1411.125

YTM = 1.61%

YTM = 1.61% x 2 = 3.22%

Assume Chester Corp. is downsizing the size of their workforce by 20% (to the nearest person) next year from various strategic i
Tasya [4]

Answer:

$311,100

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that:

Assume Chester corp downsized the size of their workforce by = %

The exit interviews cost estimated = 100

Additional normal costs of separation = $5000

Now,

The Total Employee = 305

The Down Sizing = 20%

Thus,

The Total Employee = 305 x 20% = 61 employees

so,

The Separation cost per employees = $5000

The Exit interview cost = $100

Total cost = $5,100

Now,

The total overall cost of separation = 61 employees x total cost of separation per employees

Which is,

= 61 x 5100  = = $311,100

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

lower production costs will lead to lower retail prices.

Explanation:

If a company is able to use the same strategy of one of it's products for all the market segments, then it will be able to significantly cut down on production costs that would otherwise be incurred from having to use many different strategies. These lower production costs would lead to lower retail prices which greatly benefit the consumers since they will be paying less for the products.
