The convexity of the bond is 61.810 and the duration of the bond is 7.330 years.                                                                                                      

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • A newly issued bond has a maturity of 10 years. It pays a 7.7% coupon rate. The coupon payments will receive each year. Using the coupon payments the year will be reduced.
  • The maturity year will get reduced. So the duration of the bond is approximately 7.330 years. If the bond is sold at par value the convexity can be calculated using the number of years.
  • So the convexity of the bond is 61.810.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

(a) 5

(b) $150 million

(c) 45 million

Explanation:

(a) Multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - MPC )

                     = 1 ÷ (1 - 0.8 )

                     = 1 ÷ 0.2

                     = 5 ⇒ the value of the simple multiplier is 5.

b) If the autonomous expenditure is increased by $30 million then the total output will increase by:

= $30 million × 5

= $150 million

c) If the Marginal propensity to import is 0.3 then the import will increase by:

= 150 × 0.3

= 45 million

mario62 [17]

Answer:

Cost of capital = 12.40%

Explanation:

given data

cost of equity = 15.4 percent

pretax cost of debt = 8.9 percent

debt-equity ratio = 0.46

tax rate = 34 percent

to find out

What is the cost of capital for this project

solution

first we get Equity multiplier that is express as

Equity multiplier = 1 + debt-equity ratio  ..................1

put here value

Equity multiplier = 1 + 0.46

Equity multiplier = 1.46

and

Weight of equity will be

Weight of equity = \frac{1}{Equity\ multiplier}    ....................2

put here value

Weight of equity = \frac{1}{1.46}

Weight of equity =  0.6849

and

Weight of Debt will be here

Weight of Debt = 1 -  weight of equity    ...........................3

put here value

Weight of Debt =  1 - 0.6849

Weight of Debt =   0.3151

so

Cost of capital will be here as

Cost of capital = Weight of Debt  × pretax cost of debt ×  (1- tax rate )  + cost of equity ×  Weight of equity    .....................4

put here value we get    

Cost of capital = 0.3151 × 8.9% × (1 - 0.34) + 15.4% × 0.6849

Cost of capital = 12.40%
