On January 1, Year 1, Greenfield, Inc. issues $100,000 of 9% bonds maturing in 10 years when the market rate of interest is 8%.
ELEN [110]

Answer:

When using a financial calculator to compute the issue price of the bonds, the applicable periodic interest rate ("I") is 3.923%

Explanation:

Hi, first, the discount interest rate that you have to choose is 8%, because 9% is the coupon rate (which in our case would be 9%/2=4.5% and this is used only to find the amount to be paid semi-annually).

Now we know we have to choose 8%, but this is an effective rate (I know this is an effective rate because no units were mentioned), and by definition it is a periodic rate, but it is not the rate that we need since the payments are going to be made in a semi-annual way, therefore we need to use the following equation.

r(semi-annual)=[1+r(annual)]^{\frac{1}{2} } -1

So, everything should look like this.

r(semi-annual)=[1+0.08]^{\frac{1}{2} } -1=0.03923

Therefore, the periodic interest that yuo have to use to calculate the price of the bond is 3.923%

Best of luck.

The risk-free yield curve is flat at 6% per annum. What is the value of an FRA where the holder receives LIBOR at the rate of 9%
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

c. $8.63

Explanation:

Missing word <em>"The forward LIBOR rate is 7%. All rates are compounded semiannually.  A. $8.88 , B. $9.12 , C. $8.63 , D. $9.02"</em>

Principal = $1000, FRA Rate = 9 % per annum, LIBOR after 2 years = 7 % per annum, Compounding Frequency: Semi-Annual, Risk-Free Rate = 6 % per annum

The FRA matures 2 years or 24 months from now. Further, the Interest Rate that the FRA hedges will create an interest expense only at the end of the LIBOR loan period which is an additional 6 months after the 24 month period.

Hence, Exchange of Interest Expense at the end of 30 Months = (FRA Rate - LIBOR) x Principal (calculated on a semi-annual basis)

= (0.045 - 0.035) * 1000

= $10

Current Value of FRA = Present Value of Interest Expense at the end of the 30 Months Period

= 10 / [1+(0.06/2)]^(30/6)

= $8.6261

= $8.63

​Sandstone, Inc. is considering a fourminusyear project that has an initial afterminustax outlay or afterminustax cost of​ $80,0
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

NPV = $28020.99

so he accept the this project as NPV value is positive

Explanation:

given data

CF 0 = $80000

CF 1 = $40000

CF 2 = $40000

CF 3 = $30000

CF 4 = $30000

discount rate r = 12%

solution

we get here Net present value (NPV) of the project that is total sum of the current value of all flow that is express as

NPV = - CF 0 + \frac{CF1}{(1 + r)} + \frac{CF 2}{(1 + r)^2} + \frac{CF3}{( 1+ r)^3} + \frac{CF4}{(1+r)^4}     ...........................1

put here value and we get

NPV  = - 80000 + \frac{40000}{(1+ 0.12)} + \frac{40000}{(1+ 0.12)^2} + \frac{30000}{( 1 + 0.12)^3} + \frac{30000}{(1+ 0.12)^4}  

solve it we get

NPV =  - 80000 + 35714.29 + 31887.76 + 21353.41 + 19065.54

NPV = $28020.99

so he accept the this project as NPV value is positive
