Answer:

PV= $12,242.27

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cf= 950

Nominal interest= 0.0750 monthly compounded

<u>First, we need to determine the real interest rate:</u>

Monthly interest rate= 0.075/12= 0.0625

Real annual rate= (1.00625^12) - 1= 0.0776

N<u>ow, we can calculate the present value using the following formula:</u>

PV= Cf/ i

PV= 950/0.0776

PV= $12,242.27

Answer:

The present value of the perpetuity is $12,242.27.

Explanation:

A perpetuity is an <em>annuity</em> that provide cash flow for an <em>infinite</em> period .Examples are Non -redeemable Preference Share.

Present Value (perpetuity) = Payments ÷ Required Rate

But, first change the 7.50 % nominal rate to Annual Effective Rate to match the period of Cash flow.

Effective Rate = (1 + r / m)^m - 1

                       = ( 1 + 0.0750 / 12) ^12 -1

                       = 7.76%

Therefore, Present Value (perpetuity) = $950 ÷  7.76%

                                                              = $12,242.27

Whenever marginal cost is greater than average total cost, A. average total cost is rising. B. marginal cost is falling. C. aver
Damm [24]

Answer:

A. average total cost is rising.

Explanation:

Whenever marginal cost is more than average cost it means it costs more to produce a unit now compared to the average cost of the previous units. Lets assume that a company produces 3 units  of a good.

The first unit costs $1

The second unit costs $2

The third unit costs $3.

The average cost is (1+2+3)/3=2

Now if the marginal cost for producing a unit is more than the average cost for example if the marginal cost is 4, then this will mean that average total cost is rising. we can mathematically check this.

The first unit costs $1

The second unit costs $2

The third unit costs $3.

The fourth unit costs $4

Average cost= (1+2+3+4)/4=10/4=2.5

Here we see that the average cost increased from 2 to 2.5 because marginal cost was greater than average cost.

A set of speakers may be purchased now for $1000 or by making a down payment of $150 and additional payments of $100 at the end
victus00 [196]

Answer:

the nominal annual interest rate on the payment plan is 15%

Explanation:

According to the question, a one-time payment for the speakers will cost $1,000

An installmental payment will have a $150 down payment and then another $100 fro ten subsequent months.

Calculating the total payment at tthe end of the payment plan will give

$150 + ($100 x 10months)

we have, $150 + $1,000 = $1,150.

This shows that at the end of the payment plan, the set of speakers would have cost $1,150 instead of $1,00 one-time payment.

Step 2:

To calculate the interest rate, we subtract the one-time price from the payment plan price and express it as a percentage of the one time price to get tthe interest rate.

$1,150-$1,000 = $150

then we have,

($150 ÷ $1,000) × 100%

= 0.15 × 100%

- 15%

The nominal annual interest rate is 15%.

Cheers.

1) Why might investors prefer floating rate notes over a fixed rate bond?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

These questions are incomplete since the article relating to Hologen company is not attached. However, I would answer them this way.

Explanation:

1) A floating rate bond has a shorter duration; almost zero and it has lower sensitivity to interest rates compared to a fixed rate bond.This means that the former has a lower interest rate risk. Investors tend to demand floating rate bonds when they expect future interest rates to rise because their prices would be close to their par values as their interest rates would also increase. On the other hand, fixed bond's interest rates are inversely related to their prices.

2)

For an issuing company, borrowing money floating rates terms could be riskier for cashflow management purposes . Every time interest rates increases, it means that the company would pay higher interests to lenders which could hurt its profitability. The fluctuations could also negatively affect future financial planning unlike issuing fixed rate bonds whose coupon payments are constant hence decreasing the volatility of earnings.
