Answer:

Each payment = $37.52778

Explanation:

Given:

Bond value = $1,000

Current yield = 7.17% = 0.0717

Bond quoted = 104.68%

Payment method = Semi-annual = 2 payment

Computation of annual coupon amount:

Current yield = Annual coupon / (Bond value × Bond quoted)

0.0717 = Annual coupon / ($1,000 × 104.68%)

0.0717 = Annual coupon / ($1,046.8)

Annual coupon = 0.0717 × $1,046.8

Annual coupon = $75.05556

Computation of each payment:

Each payment = Annual coupon amount / 2 payment

Each payment = $75.05556 / 2

Each payment = $37.52778

a. rate of return on investments

b. may be reconsidered if funds later become available.

Explanation:

Cash payback period measures how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from the cumulative cash flow.

Amount invested = $-1,000,000

Amount recovered in year 1 = $-1,000,000 + $400,000 = $-600,000

Amount recovered in year 2 = $-600,000 + 320,00 = $-280,000

Amount recovered in year 3 = $-280,000 + 280,000 = 0

The amount invested is recovered In the 3 year

Average accounting rate = average net income/ average book value

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested. The interest rate used is the rate of return on investments.

The hurdle rate is the least acceptable rate that a project can have for it to be acceptable.

Assume a company had the following production costs: Direct labor $ 2 per unit Direct material $ 3 per unit Variable overhead $
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Total production cost $ 14 per unit  Under absorption costing True

The total product cost per unit when 4,000 units are produced would be $22.50  False

Explanation:

Direct labor $ 2 per unit

Direct material $ 3 per unit

Variable overhead $ 4 per unit

Total variable $ 9 per unit

Fixed overhead ($50,000/10,000 units) $ 5 per unit

Total production cost $ 14

Production Costs involve the fixed costs under absorption Costing. So the total Product cost under absorption costing is $ 14.

When 4,000 units are produced the production costs are as follows

Absorption Costing: 4,000 * 14= $ 56,000

Variable Costing : 4000 * 9= $ 36,000

So the second statement is false.
