Answer:

Price of the bond is $104,236,860.

Explanation:

Given:

Coupon rate is 6% or 0.06

Face value = $119,000,000

Coupon payment each year = 0.06×119,000,000

= $7,140,000

Yield to maturity = 7% or 0.007

Maturity period = 30 years

Price of bond = Present value of face value + present value of coupon payment (annuity)

Price of bond = $119,000,000_{(PV\ 30,0.07)} + 7,140,000_{(PVA\ 30,0.07)}$

PV of $1 for 7%,30 periods = 0.1314

PVA of $1 for 7%,30 periods = 12.409

Substitute the values in above formula:

Price of bond = (119,000,000 × 0.1314) + (7,140,000 × 12.409)

= 15,636,600 + 88,600,260

= $104,236,860

There will be slight difference in final answer as present value table is used. Excel spreadsheet gives an accurate answer.

So, price of bond is $104,236,860

U.S. businesses and those of other countries are seeking to expand around the world for many reasons. Which of the following is

Andrews [41]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

An increase in underdeveloped countries cannot be the reason why businesses would expand abroad because there wont be as much potential buyers in underdeveloped economies as they have very low capita income and most of the residents live in very poor conditions. But however other options are valid because favorable trade agreements and developed transportation and IT makes the international trade easy and beneficial to both the buyer and the seller. Moreover, when domestic markets matures, the rate of growth slows down and falls to zero. this is when the businesses want to emerge and find new markets abroad in order to benefit from the trade as in matured market there is less chance for businesses to grow and it becomes risky

Manufacturing overhead= 5

Direct labor= 2

Selling and administrative= 5

Total unitary variable cost= $22

<u>Now, the contribution margin income statement:</u>

Sales= 5,000*38= 190,000

Total variable cost= 22*5,000= (110,000)

Total contribution margin= 80,000

Fixed Manufacturing overhead= (35,000)

Fixed Selling and administrative= (15,000)

David is buying a new car for $21,349.00. He plans to make a down payment of $3,000.00. If he's to

marshall27 [118]

Answer: (D) 5.90%

Explanation: David is going to buy a new car at $21,349.

The down payment is $3,000.

Loan amount (Present value) = $21,349 - $3,000

Loan amount (Present Value) = $18,349

Installment amount (pmt) = $352

As the payment is made monthly (12 months in a year),

Number of payments = 5 * 12

Number of payments = 60

Using the rate option in excel,

$=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv,type)$

Insert the variables into the option, we get

$=rate(60,352,-18349)$

By inserting the above formula in excel we get,

Rate = 0.47%

Rate of 0.47% is monthly, to get APR

$APR = (1+monthly rate)^12 - 1$

$APR = (1+0.0047)^12 - 1$

$APR = (1.0047)^12 -1$

$APR = 1.0586 - 1$

APR = 0.0586

APR = 5.86% or 5.90%

Therefore the correct option is 5.90%.
