ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

$906.30

Explanation:

Face value (FV) = $1000

Coupon payment (C) = 7% of $1000 = $70

Yield to maturity (r) = 8% = 0.08

t = 18

Number of compounding periods (n) = 1 (annually)

Using the relation:

C[( 1 - (1 + r/n)^-nt) / (r/n)] + FV / (1 + r/n)^nt

70[(1 - (1 + 0.08)^-1*18) / (0.08/1)] + 1000 / (1 + 0.08/1)^1*18

70[1 - (1.08)^-18) / 0.08] + 1000 / 1.08^18

70[(1 - 0.2502490)/0.08] + (1000 / 3.99601949918)

70(9.3718871) + 250.24902

= $906.281117

= $906.30

il63 [147K]

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Contribution margin ratio is the difference between the selling price of the product and the variable cost of the product.

Contribution margin ratio = Selling price - Variable cost

Now, if there is a decrease in the fixed costs and variable costs of the product then as a result contribution margin ratio increases because of the fall in variable cost.

Break even point = (Fixed expense ÷ Contribution margin ratio)

If there is an increase in the contribution margin ration and a reduction in the fixed expense then as a result break even point decreases.

Increased; Decreased
