Answer:

The price of the bond is closest  $101.36  

Explanation:

It is noteworthy that a rational investor pays for a bond today the cash flows derivable from the bonds in future discounted to today's terms.

The future cash flows comprise of the yearly coupon interest of $5.5(5.5% *$100) for 3 years as well as the repayment of the principal $100 at the end of year 3.

To bring the cash inflows today's term, we multiply them  them by the discounting factor 1/(1+r)^N , where is the yield to maturity of 5% and N is the relevant the cash flow is received.

The discounting is done in attached spreadsheet leading $ 101.36  present value today.

In a planning context, A. open facts are preferred to closed facts. B. None of the choices are correct. C. new facts are preferr
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": open facts are preferred to closed facts.

Explanation:

While planning a project, open facts are those that have not happened yet in contrast to closed facts that are those that already occurred. Managers prefer to start from the bottom while planning since it is better to explore the new path with a "clean sheet" than being subject to events that already took place and condition the course of a project.

<em>Open facts, then, are more preferred than closed facts.</em>

Simon Corporation manufactures hydraulic valves. The product life of a valve is 4 years. Target average profit margin for Simon
Luda [366]

Answer:

Allowable unit cost of a hydraulic valve using the target costing model = 52.4

Explanation:

Given that:

Simon Corporation manufactures hydraulic valves. The product life of a valve is 4 years.

Target average profit margin for Simon 20.00%

The company does not expect the manufacturing cost to vary over the next 4 years

Estimated sales volume and the unit selling price of the valve for the next 4 years is given below:

Year                  Sales volume (units)                   Unit selling price

Year 1                       40,000                                 $80.00

Year 2                      50,000                                 $75.00

Year 3                     35,000                                   $50.00

Year 4                      25,000                                  $45.00

The objective is to determine the allowable unit cost of a hydraulic valve using the target costing model.

The Cost for each unit selling price can be calculated as:

= unit selling price - (Target average profit margin × unit selling price)

For Year 1

=  $80.00- (0.2 × $80.00)

= $80.00 - $16.00

= $64.00

For Year 2

= $75.00 - ( 0.2 × $75.00)

= $75.00 - ( $15.00)

= $60.00

Year 3

= $50.00 - (0.2× $50.00)

= $50.00 - $10.00

= $40.00

Year 4

= $45.00 - (0.2 × $45.00)

=$45.00 - $9.00

= $36.00

Year       Sales volume    Unit                Cost          Cost per Unit

                (units)             selling price  

Year 1       40,000          $80.00          $64.00       $2560000

Year 2      50,000          $75.00          $60.00       $3000000

Year 3      35,000          $50.00          $40.00        $1400000

Year 4       25,000          $45.00         $36.00        $900000

Total:        150000                                                    $7860000

Allowable unit cost = Total cost/Total number of unit cost

Allowable unit cost = $7860000/150000

Allowable unit cost = 52.4
