Answer:

Total $986.2534

Explanation:

We have to discount the annual bond against the same rate but compounding semiannualy

$(1+ 0.0875/2)^2 -1 = r_e\\1.0894140625 - 1 = r_e\\0.0894140625 = r_e$

Now we discount the 12 coupon payment and the maturity at the given discount rate

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 87.500 (1,000 x 0.0875)

time 12

rate 0.0894140625

$87.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0894140625)^{-12} }{0.0894140625} = PV\\$

PV $628.4172

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 1,000.00

time 12.00

rate 0.0894140625

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.0894140625)^{12} } = PV$

PV 357.84

PV c $628.4172

PV m $357.8362

Total $986.2534

"Find the amount of each payment to be made into a sinking fund which earns 7% compounded quarterly and produces $50 comma 000

Elodia [21]

Answer:

Quarterly deposit= $3,182.78

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A sinking fund earns 7% compounded quarterly and produces $50,000 at the end of 3.5 years.

We need to find the quarterly deposit made at the end of each period.

<u>First, we need to calculate the quarterly interest rate:</u>

Interest rate= 0.07/4= 0.0175

To calculate the deposit, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= quarterly deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

n= 3.5*4= 14

FV= 50,000

i= 0.0175

A= (50,000*0.0175)/ [(1.0175^14)-1]= $3,182.78

The publisher of an economics textbook finds that, when the book's price is lowered from $70 to $60, sales rise from 10,000 to 1

ankoles [38]

Answer:

Price elasticity of demand = 2.6

Explanation:

Given:

Old price (P0) = $70

New price (P1) = $60

Old sales (Q0) = 10,000 units

New sales (Q1) = 15,000 units

Computation of Price elasticity of demand(e):

Midpoint method

$e=\frac{\frac{Q1-Q0}{\frac{Q1+Q0}{2} } }{\frac{P1-P0}{\frac{P1+P0}{2} } }$

By putting the value:

$e=\frac{\frac{10,000-15,000}{\frac{10,000+15,000}{2} } }{\frac{60-70}{\frac{60+70}{2} } }\\e=\frac{\frac{-5,000}{\frac{25,000}{2} } }{\frac{-10}{\frac{130}{2} } }\\$

$e=\frac{\frac{-5,000}{12,500} }{\frac{-10}{65} }$

e = 2.6
