Laurel, Inc., and Hardy Corp. both have 6 percent coupon bonds outstanding, with semiannual interest payments, and both are curr
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

A. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent, what is the percentage change in the price of these bonds?

Laurel, Inc. = -8.11%

Hardy Corp. = -18.91%

B. If interest rates were to suddenly fall by 2 percent instead, what would the percentage change in the price of these bonds be then?

Laurel, Inc. = +8.98%

Hardy Corp. = +25.49%

Explanation:

bonds with 6% semiannual coupons, sold at par $1,000

Laurel, Inc. bond maturity in 5 years

Hardy Corp. bond maturity in 18 years

the current price of a bond is the sum of the present value of its face value and coupons. I will use an annuity table to calculate PV of face value and an ordinary annuity table for the coupons:

Laurel, Inc.

market rate 4% = ($1,000 x 0.8203) + ($30 x 8.9826) = $820.30 + $269.48 = $1,089.78, % change = 89.78/1,000 = 8.98%

market rate 8% = ($1,000 x 0.6756) + ($30 x 8.1109) = $675.60 + $243.33 = $918.93, % change = -81.07/1,000 = -8.11%

Hardy Corp.

market rate 4% = ($1,000 x 0.4902) + ($30 x 25.489) = $490.20 + $764.67 = $1,254.87, % change = 254.87/1,000 = 25.49%  

market rate 8% = ($1,000 x 0.2437) + ($30 x 18.908) = $243.70 + $567.24 = $810.94, % change = -189.06/1,000 = -18.91%

Absent any exaggeration, supply chain professionals could boast how crucial their role is in satisfying B2B and B2C customers al
const2013 [10]

Answer:

True, but it applies to everyone in the organization.

Explanation:

Modern companies can only be successful if every single employee works as a team member, since competition keeps increasing and customers' expectations keep rising.

Every single role within an organization is important. Can supply chain professionals distribute a product that doesn't exist (wasn't manufactured on time)? Could they distribute a product that no one wants to buy (marketing and sales are extremely important also)? Could anyone work if the finance department couldn't do its job and there was no money in the company?

We tend to believe that what we do is extremely important and difficult to do, and other people have it easier because their are simpler than ours. But that is just nonsense. Once I heard a quarterback talking about who was the most important player in a football team, and his answer really surprised me, "Quarterbacks fill stadiums, but defenses earn championships". On a team no one is more important, the chain breaks on its weakest link.

Sloan [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. benchmarking.

Explanation:

Benchmarking is a continuous process by which the products, services or work processes of leading companies are taken as a reference, to compare them with those of your own company and then make improvements and implement them.

It is not about copying what your competition is doing, but learning what leaders are doing to implement it in your company by adding improvements. If we take as a reference those who stand out in the area we want to improve and study their strategies, methods and techniques for post
