Answer:

7.32%

Explanation:

<em>The price of a bond is the present of its interest payment and the present value of redemption value (RV</em>

Present value of the Redemption Value (RV) =

FV× (1+r/2)^(-2×n)

FV- 2000, r- yield rate, r/2= 6.74%/2 = 3.37%, n-22

=2000× (1.0337)^(-2×22)

= 465.233

Present Value of the coupon payment =Price of bond - PV of RV

                          = (106.657% × 2000) - 465.233

                         =    $1667.90

PV of coupon payment= A × (1-(1+r)^(-2×n)

A- semiannual coupon payment, r -yield

   1667.90 = A × (1-(1.0337)^(-2*22))/0.0337

    1,667.90   = A × 22.7710

A = 1,667.90/22.7710

A= 73.246

Annual coupon payment = 2× 73.246=  146.493

Annual coupon rate = coupon payment/ face value

                                = (146.493/2,000 )× 100

                                = 7.32%

Answer:

Coupon rate is 7.32%

Explanation:

In calculating the coupon rate on the bond,we first of all need to determine the amount of interest payable by the bond on semi-annual basis using the pmt formula in excel:

=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)

rate is the yield to maturity divided by 2 since it is a semi-annual interest paying bond i.e 6.74%/2

nper is the time to maturity of the bond multiplied by 2=22*2=44

the present value is the current price of the bond:$2000*106.657%=$2133.14

The fv is the face value of $2000

=pmt(6.74%/2,44,-2133.14 ,2000)

pmt= 73.25  

annual pmt= 73.25*2= 146.49  

coupon rate=pmt/face value= 146.49/2000

                                              =7.32%

The following are budgeted data:January February March Sales in units 16,600 23,200 19,600Production in units 19,600 20,600 19,3
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The purchases of raw material for February are budgeted to be 20275 pounds.

Explanation:

The opening inventory of raw material in February should be equal to 25% of the production requirement for the month of February. Thus, the opening balance of raw material is,

Opening balance- Raw material = 0.25 * 20600   =  5150 pounds

Similarly, the closing inventory for raw material for the month of February should be equal to the 25% of production requirement for the month of March. Thus, the closing inventory of raw material in the month of February is,

Closing balance = 0.25 * 19300   =  4825 pounds

Purchases of raw material should be enough to produce enough units to meet February's production requirement after using the opening inventory of raw material along with having enough desired closing inventory of raw material. So, the purchases of raw material are,

Purchases = Closing inventory + Production - Opening Inventory

Purchases = 4825 + 20600 - 5150

Purchases = 20275 pounds

Accounts receivable turnover = Net Credit Sales /Average Accounts Receivable

E-Shop, Inc. has net sales on account of​ $1,500,000 and average net accounts receivable of​ $610,000.

Accounts receivable turnover = $1,500,000/$610,000 = 2.46 times

The number of days' sales in receivables = 365/2.46 = 148.37 days
