Answer:

b) The company will incur a loss

Explanation:

The market rate at the time of issue = 9%, while coupon rate = 8%, it says bonds provide lesser return when compared to the market rate.  

At end of year 2 market rate drops to 6% which is lower than the Bond's coupon rate. Which means the bond's providing high return when compared to the market. So, company to retire the bonds need to pay more than the par value.

As company should retire these bonds more than par value, the company incur a loss.

Option 'B is correct

The company incur a loss

This will create a natural monopoly because the company will be more efficient in this particular industry and if another company tried to come in, they would have to spend a lot of money to get to a point of increasing returns to scale.

On December 31, 2016, Bart Inc. purchased a machine from Fell Corp. in exchange for a noninterest-bearing note requiring eight p
iragen [17]

Answer:

Bart Inc.

The initial value of the machine is:

= $114,240.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Date of purchase of machine from Fell Corp. = December 31, 2016

Annual payments for a non-interest-bearing note = $20,000

Appropriate present value of the annuity due = 5.712

PV of the annual payments for 8 years = $114,240 ($20,000 * 5.712)

First payment date = December 31, 2016

Period of payments = 8 years

Prevailing interest rate for this type of note = 11%

Check from an online financial calculator:

N (# of periods)  8

I/Y (Interest per year)  11

PMT (Periodic Payment)  20000

FV (Future Value)  0

Results

PV = $114,243.93

Sum of all periodic payments = $160,000.00

Total Interest = $45,756.07
