Answer:
forward rates are determined by investors' expectations of future interest rates.
Explanation:
The expectations theory of the term structure of interest rates states that forward rates are determined by investors' expectations of future interest rates. It suggests that the predicted holding period rate of return of a bond of "x" number of time is equal to the short-term interest rate irrespective of its maturity.
The Expectations theory gives us the opportunity to predict the future outcome of short-term interest rates based on current long-term interest rates.
Answer:
$60,000 income tax benefit
Explanation:
Since Crimson Corp. had a loss from operations and sold the asset for a loss we know that they lost money with the asset and an income tax benefit was generated. To calculate the income tax benefit we need to add both losses: $40,000 (operation) + $160,000 (sale) = $200,000 in total losses.
$200,000 x 30% = $60,000 income tax benefit
Answer:
$36
Explanation:
The contribution margin per unit is calculated by subtracting the variable cost per unit from the selling price.
Selling price is $60
Contribution margin per unit?
The total sales in dollar value are $15,000, The sales in units equal to
=$15,000 /60
=250 units
Total variable costs will include variable manufacturing cost plus variable selling and administrative costs
=$4000 + $2000
=$6000
variable cost per unit will be the total variable cost divide by units produced
=$6000/250
=$24
Contribution margin per unit = $60- $24
=$36
Answer:
5.71%
Explanation:
The after tax cost of debt=pretax cost of debt*(1-t)
where t is the tax rate of 35% or 0.35
pretax cost of debt=yield to maturity
The yield to maturity can be determined using rate formula in excel as below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of coupon interest payable by the bonds i.e 12 coupons in 12 years
pmt is the annual coupon=$1000*9.5%=$95
pv is the current market price-flotation cost=$1,100-$48=$1052
fv is the face value of $1000
=rate(12,95,-1052,1000)=8.78%
After tax cost of debt=8.78%
*(1-0.35)=5.71%
