Answer:

The periodic interest payment is $6000. So, option A is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The coupon rate that is quoted on the bonds is always the rate for the whole year. Thus, a 4% coupon rate means a rate of interest of 4% for the whole year. The bonds are semi annual bonds which means the interest of 4% for the whole year is paid in two stages, after every 6 months.

The semiannual rate of interest is thus = 4% / 2 =  2%

The coupon is paid on the face value of the bond. The interest payment every six month or the periodic interest payment is,

Interest payment-periodic = 300000 * 0.02 = 6000

Handy Man, Inc., has zero coupon bonds outstanding that mature in eight years. The bonds have a face value of $1,000 and a curre
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

5.657%

Explanation:

Data provided:

Face value = $1,000

Current market price = $640

Time of maturity, t = 8 year

Now,

the compounding formula is given as:

Face value = Current amount × (1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

where,

r is the rate i.e pretax rate of debt

n is the number of times the interest is compounded i.e for semiannual n = 2

thus, on substituting the values, we get

$ 1,000= $ 640 × (1+\frac{r}{2})^{2\times8}

or

1.5625 = (1+\frac{r}{2})^{16}

or

(1+\frac{r}{2}) = 1.0282

or

r = 0.05657

or

pretax cost of debt = 0.05657 × 100% = 5.657%

What are the basic element of selection of profession describe any two of them​
Lilit [14]

Answer:

• A professional makes deliberate choices where others have choices made for them or they simply react to what comes their way.

° A professional is afforded the luxury of making deliberate choices because he has made deliberate preparations.

•A professional can make deliberate preparations because his understanding of and familiarity with the relevant (professional) landscape informs him on how to prepare. Also, like the chess master, he is trained to understand the inevitable results of hundreds of different patterns; he has disciplined himself to observe the whole board and not just the most immediate features or the area with the most tension in the game.

•A professional is seldom caught off-balance. The discipline for deliberate preparation and the understanding that comes with it allow that even when something unexpected or unfamiliar is introduced, a professional can quickly understand its basis and easily extrapolate the appropriate tactic, strategy, or process for ethically and successfully resolving issues.

•In this capacity, and most fundamentally, a professional habitually makes the right choices because all of his choices are based on the integrity provided by his moral and ethical foundation. Any choice of expedience over integrity can quite easily be recognized by anyone as the wrong choice. Here, the professional simply acknowledges what is obvious, makes the right choice, and acts deliberately (and now we're back at the start of this list).
