George's Equipment is planning on merging with Nelson Machinery. George's will pay Nelson's shareholders the current value of th

zalisa [80]

Answer:

31 per share

Explanation:

The computation of value per share is shown below:-

Share exchange ratio = MPS of Nelson ÷ MPS of George

= $38 ÷ $31

= 1.2258

MPS a + b = MVa + MVb ÷ Number of shares a + Number of shares b × SER

= (1600 × $38) + (4,600 × $31) ÷ 4,600 + (1,600 × 1.2258)

= $60,800 + $142,600 ÷ 4600 + 1,961

= $203,400 ÷ 6,561

= 31 per share

Therefore for computing the value per share we simply applied the above formula.

ra1l [238]

Answer:

forward rates are determined by investors' expectations of future interest rates.

Explanation:

The expectations theory of the term structure of interest rates states that forward rates are determined by investors' expectations of future interest rates. It suggests that the predicted holding period rate of return of a bond of "x" number of time is equal to the short-term interest rate irrespective of its maturity.

The Expectations theory gives us the opportunity to predict the future outcome of short-term interest rates based on current long-term interest rates.

Terry company had january 1 inventory of $100,000 when it adopted dollar-value lifo. during the year, purchases were $600,000 an

inna [77]

Answer:

Terry's Closing Inventory is $131,360.

Terry's Gross profit is $431,360.

We follow these steps to arrive at the answers:

1. Calculate the base value of closing inventory (CI):

$CI_{base value} = \frac{CI*Index at base year}{current price index}$

$CI_{base value} = \frac{143360*100}{112} = 128,000$

2. Calculate additions to inventory at base price

$Additions to inventory = CI_{base value} - Beginning inventory$

$Additions to inventory = 128000 - 100000 = 28,000$

3. Calculate the value of additions to inventory at current prices

$Additions to inventory_{current Value} = Additions to inventory_{base Value} * \frac{current price index}{base price index}$

$Additions to inventory_{current Value} = 28,000 * \frac{112}{100} = 31,360$

4. Calculate the value of Closing inventory

$Closing inventory = Beginning Inventory + Additions to inventory_{current Value}$

$Closing inventory = 100,000 + 31,360 = 131,360$

5. Compute Cost of Goods Sold (COGS):

$COGS = Opening Inventory + Purchases - Closing Inventory$

$COGS = (100000 + 600000 - 131360) = 568640$

6. Compute Gross profit

$Gross profit = Sales - COGS$

$Gross profit = 1000000 - 568640 = 431360$

A ten-year note is priced at par and has a (modified) duration of 7.8 years. A twenty-five year bond has a (modified) duration o

harina [27]

Answer:

Between 7.8 and 12 Years

Explanation:

The modified duration of a portfolio is defined as a weighted average in the modified duration of an individual bonds. Therefore it will lie between the extreme values of the modified duration of the bonds in portfolio so that the weights are all positive.

In the context, the modified duration lies between 7.8 years and 12 years as the modified duration would always lie between the lowest modified duration and the highest modified duration of any bonds in a portfolio. Therefore the weights are value that will lie between these two years.
