In November 2017, Treasury 4 1/2s of 2044 offered a semiannually compounded yield to maturity of 2.66%. Recognizing that coupons

are paid semiannually, calculate the bond's price. Assume face value is $1,000. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answer:

The price of a bond is $492.24

Explanation:

F= face value of bond = $1000

T=time to maturity of bond = 2044-2017= 27 years

r=yield to maturity=2.66% semi-annulay=0.0266

Formula to calculate price= F/(1+r)∧T

we have = 1000/(1+.0266)∧27 = 1000/2.0315 = $492.24

REY [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

$80,500 (b.)

Explanation:

First of all, not that total anticipated October sales is the same thing as projected October sales. Therefore, this sale is calculated as follows:

Projected sales = 7,000

unit price = $11.50 per unit

Therefore

Price for 7,000 units = 11.5 × 7,000 = $80,500

The minimum wage is increased from $7.25 to $9.00 per hour. Calculate the elasticity of demand for fast food workers over the re
deff fn [24]

Answer:

As the question was not complete. I have attached the complete question in the attachment. Please refer to attachment.

Explanation:

<em>By using, LD = 95- 3w and w1 = 7.25 and w2 = 9. We get, </em>

<em>LD1 = 95-3(7.25) = 73.25 </em>

<em>LD2 = 95-3(9) = 68 </em>

Elasticity = Change in labor demand/ change in wage rate = ((68- 73.25)/ 73.25)/ ((9-7.25/7.25)) = -0.33

The 11 percent change in the wage rate causes, 33% change in labor demanded, as shown by the elasticity, the labor demand decreases with increase in wage rate.

What does the price elasticity of supply measure? Click or tap a choice to answer the question. how income affects spending the
Zolol [24]

You didn't put all the alternatives, but I understand economics and I know exactly that concept.

Supply price elasticity measures how price changes impact the supply of goods and services. If the elasticity of supply is elastic, it means that supply is very sensitive to price changes. If the price goes down even slightly, the supply of goods will fall sharply. If the price increases, even if little, the offer will increase much. Conversely, if supply is inelastic, price changes will have little effect on supply for the good. If the price goes down, there will be little impact on the supply of the good. If the price increases, there will also be little impact on supply.

Which one of the following will produce the highest present value interest factor? A. 6 percent interest for five years B. 6 per
disa [49]

Answer:

The correct answer is A

Explanation:

The formula to compute the present value interest factor using excel is as:

= 1/(1+r)^ n

where

r is the rate

n is number of years

So, in case of A,

The present value interest factor is:

= 1/(1+0.06)^5

= 0.74725

In case of B,

The present value interest factor is:

= 1/(1+0.06)^8

= 0.62741

In case of C,

The present value interest factor is:

= 1/(1+0.06)^10

= 0.55839

In case of D,

The present value interest factor is:

= 1/(1+0.08)^5

= 0.68058

In case of E,

The present value interest factor is:

= 1/(1+0.08)^10

= 0.46319

Therefore, it is highest in option A.

Paul consumes only books and DVDs. At his current consumption​ bundle, his marginal utility from DVDs is 23 and from books is 5.
Paul [167]

Answer:

Paul is not maximizing his utility because MUd/Pd is greater than MUb/Pb

Explanation:

Marginal utility is the extra satisfaction derived from spending an additional unit of money on consuming a particular product or service.

In order to determine if he is maximizing his utility, we must calculate his utility per dollar, and this is done by dividing his Marginal Utility by the price.

Marginal Utility per dollar of DVDs is:

MUd/Pd = 23/11 = 2.09

Marginal Utility per dollar of books is:

MUb/Pb = 5/3 = 1.67

Utility is maximized when MUd/Pd is equal to MUb/Pb and Paul has exhausted his budget.
