Answer:

9.78%

Explanation:

The yield to maturity can be determined using the rate formula in excel as shown below:

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

nper is number of times coupon interest would be paid,which is 12 years multiplied by 2(semi-annual interest payment) i.e 24

pmt is the semi-annual interest which is $1000*8%/2=$40

pv is the current price of the bond at $876.40

fv is the face value of the bond which is $1000

=rate(24,40,-876.40,1000)=4.89%

Semi-annual yield is 4.89%

Annual yield is 4.89%*2=9.78%

The yield to maturity on these bonds is approximately 9.78%

Elizabeth is a chef and the kitchen manager in an upscale restaurant. she is very knowledgeable in both the culinary and restaur
allsm [11]

Because she possesses these technical skills, Elizabeth can be considered a <u>"knowledge"</u> worker.


A knowledge worker is any individual who works professionally at the errands of creating or utilizing knowledge. For instance, a knowledge laborer may be somebody who works at any of the assignments of arranging, obtaining, looking, breaking down, sorting out, putting away, programming, dispersing, advertising, or generally adding to the change and business of data and those (frequently similar individuals) who work at utilizing the information so created.  

Knowledge work can be separated from different types of work by its accentuation on "non-schedule" critical thinking that requires a mix of concurrent and unique thinking. Yet in spite of the measure of research and writing on information work, there is no brief meaning of the term.

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Please find the detailed answer as follows:

Explanation:

a) Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated manufacturing overhead cost   / Estimated total units in the allocation based

Predetermined overhead rate = 600,000 / 500,000 = 1.2 perunit

b) Total fixed cost spending variance = Actual fixed overhead cost - Estimated overhead cost

                                                         = 599,400 - 600,000

                                                         = 600 (F) Favourable

c) Total fixed cost volume variance = Actual fixed overheads - Estimated fixed overheads

  Actual fixed overheads = Estimated fixed overhead rate * Actual units produced

                                        = 1.2 * 508,000 = $609,600

Total fixed cost volume variance =$ 609,600 - $600,000 = $9600 (F) Favourable

If inflation in the U.S. is projected at 3% annually for the next 5years and at 7% annually in Turkey for the same time period,
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

6.86011 Turkish liras per US dollar

Explanation:

US's inflation 3% for the next 3 years

Turkey's inflation 7% for the next 3 years

current Lira/Dollar spot rate (L/$) = 5.6702 (liras per dollar)

  • inflation rate US = (1 + 0.03)⁵ = 1.159274
  • inflation rate Turkey = (1 + 0.07)⁵ = 1.402552

difference = 1.402552 / 1.159274 = 1.20985 x current spot rate = 1.20985 x 5.6702 = 6.86011

Since the Turkish inflation rate is higher than the American inflation rate, then the Turkish lira will depreciate faster than the US dollar.

xenn [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": short-term financing.

Explanation:

Short-term financing allows companies to obtain capital for their <em>day-to-day operations</em>. The funds obtained are typically used for the transactions companies require during one period -one year, but the term for payment tends to be within six (6) to twenty-four (24) months. Under this scenario, the main purpose of firms is to keep their businesses up and running and obtain profits enough for the payment of the loan and reinvestment in the company.
